World of Warcraft: New Loot System Idea
By now, I’m certain the vast majority of people probably feel that the LFR loot system is quite awful. You hear it on the forums all the time. Blizzard seems to want to retain the slot machine mentality behind the loot system because for them it’s because a horribly lazy way to continue to put…

Having grown up during the era of the Atari 2600, Commodore 64 and $0.25 arcade games, it was a real rarity to see gamer girls around. Usually, if you found any gamer girls they would either be Asian or some tomboy type. Some how like many things girls ended up getting pegged as people who…
