Tabula Rasa is no more.  Goodbye Deacon Rex, Exo-Biologist.  You will never see the sun rise on another day.

Over at Obsessive Focus, Ainilome says she’s starting to feel the itch to play another MMO.  I’ve suffered this same itch for a good 18 months and I have my own theories as to why I do.  I’ve heard it called MMO Ennui in the past, but for the most part I’d disagree.  I’ve [...]

As you may have heard, Tabula Rasa will be shutting down its servers and going the way of the Dodo.

     I had a few days off work so I managed to revisit a few MMOG as well as try a new one so I thought I would give a quick round up of my experiences.

EVE Online – I downloaded the free trial and the subsequent graphics update.  Firstly let me start by saying that [...]
