Holly and the folks at Crabcat are in many ways one of us, massive fans of video games and nerd culture who just happen to be a whole lot better at costuming than many of us will ever be. Check out our conversation with Crabcat’s Holly Conrad!
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, we here at NA love conventions. Sadly, some conventions like Gamescom are a bit out of our reach… and our price range. Even if you couldn’t attend yesterday’s Dragon Age and Mass Effect 3 Q+A session, the nice folks at Bioware were cool enough to record everything for us
Here are some highlights of SWTOR at this year’s San Diego Comic Con. May the Star-Wars sweat be with you.
As most of you are aware, Bioware decided to allow fans to choose the official appearance for the female Commander Shepard on Facebook and I was lucky enough to be at the Bioware-Base when the six candidates were announced. The scene was utter-mayhem and I can honestly say there were almost as many females as males present at the event. However here is where things get a bit tricky.
While wandering the streets we happened to run into the 2011 Comic-Con zombie walk which was as confusing for them as it was for us. Honestly, there was something incredibly gratifying about stabbing a fake-zombie with my fake omni-blade. Check out the video below.
There’s a massive collector’s edition, and it’s gonna set you back…

Star Wars the Old Republic is a game that we here at NerdAppropriate.com cannot wait for. Sadly we’re going to have to. The good news is, this video proves that the game is still being worked on and the graphics look better than ever. Take a quick look at the newest reveal video for the Bounty Hunter class.
Sources on the inside (Bioware custodial staff) delivered me an encrpted message that indicated that Star Wars: The Old Republic would not be coming out during Q1 2011 as previously announced.
Today Bioware released a little bit of information about how Star Wars: The Old Republic plans on doing “instances”. It dawned on me that a lot of readers that don’t play MMOs may not even know exactly what an “instance” really is. To clairfy I went to GeekDictionary.com for the official answer.
With SWTOR slated for Q1 2011 many of us are already within its “force grip”, so to speak. I have friends that ask me on a weekly basis what class and specialization I plan on playing, so I figured I may as well make a list for those that haven’t yet decided what to roll. Enjoy this compilation of information gathered from a variety of resources that may make the decision a bit easier.
