Hammerfall is a RPG game hosted on MySpace that is growing in popularity very quickly. If you are not familiar with RPG games, here is a brief introduction.
RPG stands for Role Playing Game. In the game, you assume the role of a character. The characters sometimes belong to different classes, and each class will have its own unique powers. For example, some characters may have greater strength and stamina, while other characters may have greater magical or healing powers. The character you choose depends on your own personal preferences. If you like, you can even build multiple characters. Of course, at any one time, you can only use one character to play the game.
Hammerfall is a prime example of a well thought out RPG game. For RPG games to be successful, several factors must be present.
1) Interesting storyline.
The story should be compelling enough to lure the player more into the game. Not all RPG games have captivating story lines. When the story is not compelling enough, motivation to complete the quests will certainly be lower.
2) Unique weapons, armory, and other special items.
Artifacts in a RPG game make the game more challenging and exciting. You can acquire an artifact by completing a quest, fighting monsters, buying at the marketplace, or trading with another player. Some artifacts are so rare and hard to find that players may actually pay real cash to acquire the items. An artifact can increase a character’s stats, or enhance the character with some special abilities.
3) Challenging bosses and monsters.
The bosses and monsters are a big part of a RPG game. They present exciting opportunities for players to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges. To finish off the bosses, a player may have to be patient and wait until the character is of a high enough level.
4) Interesting virtual worlds.
The entire RPG game is all about traveling through virtual worlds, acquiring artifacts, killing monsters, and completing quests. The worlds must be interesting enough to capture the imagination of the players. For example, players may have to go through mazes in the world of the Kalamar Empire.

Not long ago, gamers had to look to the likes of Nintendo Power and GamePro to find codes to help them beat games that would otherwise be impossible. Who can forget the ubiquitous Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, B, A, start to dominate with 30 extra lives in Konami’s classic Contra. Then there were other cheats that took a little more skill and talent such as the 100 extra lives on the Original Super Mario Brothers on level 8-3 where clanking the two turtles on the final stairway into each other multiple times would result in up to 100 free lives.
Then came the next wave of cheats that were facilitated by additional hardware such as the Game Genie. These unique hardware adapters would change the code base of games on systems including NES, Genesis, GameBoy, SNES, Game Gear and could do far more than the simple manual codes gamers previously relied on. Whether it was facilitating gamer’s god complexes by giving them invincibility or make them invisible to enemies, Game Genie allowed gamers to fall back in love with their old favorites.
As a second coming of the hardware based approach to game cheats we were introduced to the Game Shark. This second coming is designed to not only help you find cheats within your games but also to back-up your games. Best of all there is a Game Shark fro virtually every system old and new.

For example, in the stage of the Temple of the Oracle, At the end of the bridge you’ll be thrown into a battle with a ton of those flying nuisances and a couple of gorgons, defeat them all to open up the blocked paths. There’s a scene here as well afterward, when it’s over climb the stairs and grab the chests on the left and right side of the temple entrance for a Gorgon Eye and a Phoenix Feather. Inside the actual temple run to the top end and grab the staties there, you can pull them out to reveal two chests, both multicoloured. These statues actually serve a purpose, you may have noticed by now that the swarm of harpies is literally unending, and for that reason you cannot continue any further (you’ll see why if you climb the stairs.) What you need to do is drag the left statues down and use it to block the left hole, then drag the right statue down and use it to block the right hole. Now take out any remaining harpies and voila, you’re free. Take the lower left gate next to yet another multicoloured chest and lift it up. Before going up the stairs jump up onto the ledge to your right, here you will find a chest with another Gorgon Eye. On the adjacent side there’s a chest full of red orbs. Now climb the stairs and begin to make your way across the ceiling beams Head left to find one at the end leading up that doesn’t collapse then follow along to the right until you find another one. Head up and jump off beside the save point here. Save your game and head left.

On virtually every server, primals are the primary method of farming. When people level from 60 to 70, they save their primals to sell for their flying mounts. When people need that few thousand gold for their epic crafted items or epic mount, primal farming they go.
If you are like many World of Warcraft players, you don’t necessarily know of the best spots to farm primals. Some think they know, but don’t realize where the hot spots are at. Here is a quick summary of where and how to farm each primal the quickest.
Primal Earth – Hands down, these are most easily farmed from mining. However, if you are not a miner and are in need of these, the second best place would be the earth elementals on the southwestern region of Nagrand. They are the Shattered Rumblers and are level 66-67. They have nearly a 20% chance at dropping Motes of Earth and you should be able to get 3 to 4 Primal Earths per hour.
Primal Fire – There are a few hot spots for these, but in my opinion, one area is incredibly more profitable than the others. With the release of patch 2.4, there are now a whole army of fire elementals in the Throne of Kil’jaeden in the northeastern region of Hellfire Peninsula. Not only are there lots of fire elementals present here, but they are also on a forced respawn. This means that if there are too low of a number of these mobs up, the game will force spawn more in order to keep a minimum amount always up. If you find yourself farming on non-peak times, it is easy to farm 4 or 5 Primal Fires per hour.
Primal Water – There are two good spots to farm these. The first is Silmyr Lake in northern Terokkar Forest. In the lake, there are Shimmerscale Eels that tend to have a decent drop rate of Motes of Water. The only negatives are that you have to kill them underwater and sometimes there is lots of competition. The second spot to farm Primal Waters is fishing in Nagrand. If you can reach at least 380 fishing skill and have a flying mount, then you can fly around the waterways of Nagrand, searching for ‘Pure Water’ nodes. Fishing in these will grant Motes of Water. Both methods, depending on competition, will result in about 3 to 4 primals per hour.
Primal Air – There is really only one place to farm these and sadly it results in lots of competition. However, they are on a forced respawn! But they are spread out over a large portion of southeastern Shadowmoon Valley, thus making the forced respawn only barely beneficial. I tend to only average 2 to 3 Primal Airs per hour. Hopefully, you do not need many of these!
Primal Mana – Once again, just like the Primal Fires, you can thank 2.4 if you find yourself needing to farm these. Simply accept the quest “Maintaining the Sunwell Portal” from Exarch Nasuun in Shattrath City and then head to Bash’ir Landing in northern Blades Edge Mountain. Kill the ethereal until you get a Bash’ir Phasing Device. Use this and you will be able to see Phase Wyrms. Farm these for very quick Primal Manas. You should be able to get over 5 Primal Manas per hour.
Primal Shadow – These are the worst to farm. If you find yourself needing to farm these, it is easier to farm a different primal, sell them on the auction house, and buy Primal Shadows. But if you insist on farming, head to the Spirit Fields in southwestern Nagrand. Around the enormous crystal mountain are voids. Simply kill them for the Motes of Shadow. You will be lucky to get 2 Primal Shadows per hour. I have killed over 30 of them for not a single mote before.
Primal Life – These are fairly easy to obtain. If you have a character who can herb, simply fly around farming herbs and you are bound to get a decent amount of Primal Lifes. If you do not have an herbalist, then head to Zangarmarsh. The best mobs for these are any bogs in the zone. Some can be found in the northeast of the zone in the Dead Mire, others can be found in Funggor Cavern in the south region of the zone, and more can be found in the southwestern region of the zone by Quagg Ridge. All of these seem to have equal droprates. You should be able to obtain 4 or 5 Primal Lifes per hour. Read the rest of this entry »

1. They never run out of mana. Being a warlock myself, this is my favorite feature of the class. Whether I solo, group, or raid; I never have to sit down after a fight and drink. Between life tap and dark pact, warlocks pretty much have infinite mana.
2. Warlocks are a pet class. To some people, this is a perk. It gets lonely always being by yourself if you’re a solo player; so having a pet is a nice friend! They are also useful to tank, DPS, or help with crowd control if you’re interested in more than companionship.
3. They are one of the best classes for solo play. Warlocks are by far one of the best classes for solo play. This includes leveling up, beating elite quests, and even having fun in old world content. I have done everything from solo’ing 3-person and 5-person level 70 quests, clearing 10-man instances in old-world content, and being able to pull over 15 equal level mobs at the same time, killing them all.
4. They are also one of the best farming classes. Because of their high DPS, the use of a pet, and having infinite mana; warlocks pretty much can kill mobs nonstop. This obviously makes farming very easy, as there is little to no downtime.
5. They have three different, but useful, specializations. With most classes, there are only one or two viable specs to DPS as. With warlocks, all three trees are useful in the different aspects of the game. Affliction is useful for steady damage over long periods of time, Destruction is useful for high amounts of burst damage, and Demonology is useful for having a pet or the warlock themselves tank.
6. They bring a decent amount of utility to groups and raids. Warlocks are usually sought for in both groups and raids because they can crowd control with fear and their pet’s seduction, they are the only class to have soul stones, and they can summon free health potions for everyone in their group. They can also summon anyone in the game as long as there are two other players to help. They also can cast debuffs on mobs which will help increase the other classes’ usefulness.
7. They bring a high amount of DPS to groups and raids. On my warlock, I almost always top the damage meter in my groups and on my raids. I have done so with different specs as well. I have topped the meter as both Affliction and Destruction. This means that if played well, warlocks can be a group or raid’s best asset.
8. Warlocks are above-average PvP’ers. Once you obtain a decent amount of PvP gear, warlocks are very fun to PvP with. They can easily kill caster DPS classes and healers. Their only disadvantage is against melees, since warlocks have terrible mitigation against melees and melees have counters to almost every warlock’s escape maneuvers. However, I can almost always be on the top of the killing blow list with just a few deaths at the end of any battleground.
9. They can also be useful tanks for certain encounters. There have been numerous situations where I have tanked certain events. With the Demonology spec, warlocks can have a 20% damage reduction and as many hit points as a normal tank. The combination of the two makes them favorites when tanking mobs that deal elemental damage, as their weak armor is not an issue. If you enjoy playing different aspects of WoW, this can be a nice bonus.

You know, nobody likes a cheater. But when it comes to discovering video game cheats, “cheating” isn’t what you’re doing. I prefer to think of it as “discovering shortcuts, tips and tricks,” or video game hints.
Video games have gotten so complex, since the days of Rubix Cubix and Donkey Kong, that the game authors have purposely thrown in some back doors and other shortcuts to aid the exhausted players. However there is a problem, most of these back doors are so well hidden that these same authors have to leak the game cheats or no one would ever find them on their own.
Video game cheat sheets, codes and game hints are sort of useless if you don’t own any video games. Well I’m sure if you have games you probably beat them fast with the aid of cheat sheets, but with online video game stores you can beat more and pay less!
Any web site worth visiting will not only have video game reviews and cheats for you to peruse, but they will also have game walkthroughs. Video game walkthroughs differ from cheats in that they actually “walk you through” the process of achieving some goal. Video game cheats, on the other hand, are often cryptic one or two liners like “Enter xx892 in the password field.”
There are different types of video game reviews. Each have their good and bad points. The other most common writer of video game reviews are the actual end users. While an end user will generally have spent a great deal more time actually playing the various video games on the most popular video game systems, you’ll often find that they are men and women of little words. It’s not unusual to see a review that says “Wow! Kick A** man. I love it!” Now, that’s probably actually saying quite a bit about a particular video game, but — your opinion may vary.
You should remember that you don’t want to invest in a video game until at least a couple of people have taken the time to write a review of the game. Of course, if everyone took this advice then there wouldn’t be any video game review on any game web sites, because everyone would be waiting for someone else to write the review.
Right up there with video game reviews are video game previews. A video game preview is a lot like a movie trailer. They bundle all of the really thrilling parts together and give you a quick peek hoping that you’ll believe that the entire video game is actually as cool as the 90 seconds of video game previews that they let you get a view at.
