The next exciting episode of The Lazy MMO Review. This time, myself and Blue take a crack at Aion and I manage to keep quiet about GameGuard. I actually had a whole bit about my hatred for the program, but it had too much swearing. Anyway! Regardless if you think Aion is just an Asian WoW clone (it’s really not), if you enjoy big open worlds and being able to fly (but NOT perform a 360 horizontal roll), or just need something fresh to play and have fun with, you might want to check out Aion.

Near-End Week Notes, I’m Sorta But Not Really Busy
Okay, so a quick little update about some stuff, so I can say I don’t doddle on my blog.
First, I’m back into Guild Wars for God-only-knows what reason, but whatever, I’m back and playing on a usual basis, or rather, would be playing on a regular basis if not for the Aion open beta, in which I am partaking, FINALLY!
Second, something NOT about gaming, I got a new mid-tower case for my mid-range PC, so I can not wait to move all the crap from one crappy case to a slighty bigger crappy case. Actually that’s not true, my current case only has one 80mm fan for cooling. That’s the kind of stuff that makes me cry at night in between wondering if it’ll blow up and/or start a fire. Hopefully this new case will provide more room (it does) and better cooling (does that too) so I’m happy, until I start to take everything out and put it back in.
Finally, and so we’re clear on this, I, Connor, The Lazy Geek (maybe the laziest) F***ING. HATE. GAMEGUARD. Here, let me bold that so we can all be on the same page. Ahhhh, much better. i’m glad I got that off my chest! Well, time to go play some more Aion, until the next post.
End of Weekend Notes, Lazy Is But A Word
And lazy is what I yam, and I yam what I yam. or something like that…anyway, while I’ve been out doing website things and other projects and being dragged back into Guild Wars kicking and screaming like a spoiled brat not wanting to go to the doctor’s office, I’ve been keeping an ear or three to the ground waiting for more news of Guild Wars 2 and other praise-worthy geeky-ness.
I read and watched some good Q&A with Anet Heads and designers about Guild Wars 2 which you can check out over at theGuild Wars 2 site which has everything from talking about underwater combat to new pvp systems to what was learned from the original Guild Wars. Still talking about GW2…
New concept art and two wallpapers have made there way to the public and to my harddrives amirite which range from “Oh, that looks neat,” to “Oh, that looks bitchin’!” in terms of awesomeness. Check ‘em all out on the Guild Wars 2 site. Yeah I’m too lazy to link for you.
Let’s see, what else to talk about, I guess I could bitch about Comcast sucking, but that’s too easy. Oh oh, Aion using GameGuard as their “hacker free-for-all prevention” program instead of…anything else, but again, too easy. Well I’ll just leave it at that and wait to find something truly god-awful to complain about before…complaining…again. Or I’ll just post more GW2 news in hopes that ArenaNet will forgive me.
