So Excited About Rock Band 2!!!



Can you believe it!? Only 21 more days until the release of what will surely be one of my favorite games of all time! ROCK BAND 2!!! That's right, September 15 is what I've read is Harmonix's release date (for the 360) for the sequel to the epic game, Rock Band, which has done amazingly well and is my absolute favorite game for the 360.

I did a bit of reading about Rock Band 2, and was ecstatic with all I read! They are adding new character customization, which will be awesome because I was happy with what Rock Band 1 offered, so even more options will be a bonus! There is also a tutorial for drums, which will supposedly make new comers to the drums able to play them without suffering so many embarrassing fails, which would make me happy (I still haven't beaten the medium solo career, lol)

I think that the most amazing thing that they are adding in Rock Band 2 is an ONLINE TOUR MODE!!! I was shocked that Rock Band 1 didn't have it, and am overjoyed to find out that it is now available in Rock Band 2 so that I can go on tour with all of my xbox live pals! Oh, and we get to use all of our Rock Band 1 songs AND Harmonix will be releasing a pack of 20 free songs for download shortly after the game is released!

There's a few more details on here on Game Spot, so definitely read through their article and have a look at their pics if you were a fan of Rock Band 1. Ooooooh I can hardly wait!!!!! hehe

Meicha The Mage Update

Well, first of all, Meicha the mage is now Lylia the mage. I had reached 22 on the Thrall server, only to realize the people I made a character there to talk to really were never on and when they were, usually didn’t answer me. Cursing myself for wasting my time making a character on a server I now didn’t want to be on, I considered my options. I could transfer Meicha over to Terenas, where I would have lots and lots of people to chat with while playing, but that would cost me money. I could remake a new mage somewhere, but my Terenas character list was already full. Finally I remembered Lylia! Just before I stopped playing nearly 5 months ago I had made a mage. She was now 25 and on the server Terenas, but she was on my “Alts Account”. I figured what the hell, and put some game time on that account. Lylia was also a draenei mage, and was even spec’d the same, so really it was just like skipping three levels but getting to play on a better server!

I started playing Lylia a fair bit before I lost my Internet AGAIN. I managed to get her to level 30 and now have my very first level 30 mount! My first Elek as well, because by level 30 I did not have enough rep to get a horsey =/ Basically playing Lylia is just like playing Meicha, only now I have help, company and more gold than any level 30 could ever need, haha. So, from now on I will update as I play Lylia the mage, and poor Meicha will be left in my “Alts I never play” list. Now I just need to get my Internet back so I can get to 70! =)
