Starfleet Commander

I started playing Starfleet Commander by Blue Frog Games more than 2 years ago. I found it on Facebook and started it as something to do while at work. At first I played it very casually, I was at work after all and only wanted something to do for a Read more…

Ask Cryptic

There was a new Ask Cryptic posted yesterday. One of the things I really like about the STO team is their communication. Daniel Stahl, the leader producer, has made every effort to be up front and transparent with STO’s development. This means they share current development plans and you can Read more…

KOTOR Progression

I have made it past the two starting locations in KOTOR. After blowing up the asteroid world and escaping to Telos, I have reacquired the Ebon Hawk and journeyed to Nar Shadaa. I have fully committed myself to the ways of the Dark Side, killing as many innocents as I Read more…
