Games for Windows Live

March 27, 2011

This is probably the single most terrible piece of software you have ever produced, Microsoft. The fact that I can’t create a gamertag due to “an unexpected error” is one thing. I mean, OK, I can play offline. No big deal. But when I want to play games that only work online, this isn’t so [...]

Rift: Beta

December 29, 2010

In the Rift beta.

New and Old MMOs

December 16, 2010

It seems I’ve ended up with quite a few MMO(-ish) games that I want to play once released. Rift Firefall Tribes Universe APB: All Points Bulletin (re-release in 2011) Hellgate: London (set for a re-release in 2010; will most likely be 2011 though) Brink All of these are awesome in their own right. I recommend [...]

Regarding APB

September 16, 2010

I see some people still drop by #apb-dev now and then. For your information; no, we’re no longer touching the game. We haven’t been for a looong time, as we all lost interest pretty early. And seeing how the game is officially dead, it won’t be much fun now, either way. This makes for a [...]

APB: Beta Over, Reversing Progress

June 20, 2010

Update: We all pretty much lost interest, and stopped working on it. The beta ended yesterday. Me and a few others have been actively reversing the game, seeking to emulate it. What we know so far: All Game Client to/from Login Server opcodes (GC2LS/LS2GC). All Game Client to/from World Server opcodes (GC2WS/WS2GC). How to connect [...]

APB: In Beta

June 13, 2010

Purchased All Points Bulletin yesterday, so I’ll be playing the “beta” the next couple of days. I’ll most likely post a short review of sorts eventually. Of course, reverse engineering is mandatory.

StarCraft 2: Got a Beta Key

May 5, 2010

Recently got my hands on a beta key for SC2, so going to waste some time on that for the next couple of weeks, where I really should be doing exam preparations.

WoW: Cataclysm Alpha Leaked

May 4, 2010

Today, the World of Warcraft Cataclysm F&F alpha was launched, and the mandatory leak happened shortly, with most people in the WoW reversing scene now having a client copy. Now, before you go all “OMG OMG” about this, I might as well point it out: There’s nothing interesting in the alpha client from a reverse [...]
