The big headline for the day is that my Command and Conquer 3 walkthrough is considered complete except for pictures. I might rely on feedback to see which missions really need pictures, and some are obvious candidates. I wrote the guide without pictures in mind however so it is as functional as any other text-based walkthrough. I had a lot of fun with the last NOD mission, but a lot of frustration as well. It surely must be the hardest mission between GDI and Nod. I haven't completed the Scrin campaign yet as I haven't had time. In a word, this delay can be summed up to college.

Additionally, I have eliminated a large number of pesky gold seller ads on my World of Warcraft pages in favor of J!NX : Clothing for Gamers & Geeks advertisements. I browsed their site a while, and there are some seriously awesome t-shirts there for people who like older games, as well as cutting edge geekdom. I'm impressed and happy to promote them, and I'm sure to spend a bit of time shopping there the next time a student loan check comes knocking.

The final update is that I'm working on splitting up some large guides into single pages per mission. I think it's easier than having people scroll down. A nice html index page swiftens the process. The first to get chopped up is Red Alert 2. Nothing amazing about RA2 these days but it's still a damn good game. CNC3 bears the torch admirably.

I released the Command and Conquer 3 walkthrough for indexing today, but I don't intend to announce it officially. I put it up so that people could give me input into strategies and more tips. Submissions will be credited as the individual desires. I am still out on uploading screenshots, at least for the bulk of the guide. I will probably upload some for the tough missions to better explain what is going on in the battle. Also, the final GDI missions aren't in yet but will be soon, as they're written just not converted to html yet. None of Nod is, as i just haven't gotten around to it.

At any rate, here is the Command and Conquer 3 Guide I've created so far. In the end, I will probably have unit descriptions and tips for each faction. CNC3 is still hot, and with Kane's Wrath on the horizon, I am anxiously awaiting the opportunity to cover it.

New to the site is an article I wrote on how to upgrade weapons and armor in Last Chaos. I see many new players asking this question and thought I'd help them out by supplying the answer! The new Last Chaos Upgrade Guide is up! Enjoy.

Blizzard has announced the development of Starcraft 2 at long last! I'm particularly excited as I have been a long-standing fan of the original. Blizzard has posted a faq that answers a few questions, although nothing groundbreaking as the game is still in such early development. A cinematic trailer and the aforementioned faq can be found at the official site.

I've taken a break from World of Warcraft to begin working on a Command and Conquer 3 and Starcraft Brood War walkthrough. I'm not sure which I'll finish first, I am on my Summer break from college now and want to enjoy it as much as I can.

I'm finally back from my long hiatus. The site hasn't grown any, but I have been working on some optimizations during the time I was seemingly gone. I picked up a new hobby, perhaps you've heard of it: World of Warcraft.

I've played WoW for about 6 months now, and have enjoyed it a lot. I have a couple high level characters and have proven to be quite successful at the game. As such, I have started a new walkthrough section. I intend to document quests as I complete them, beginning with Mulgore, an area on the Kalimdor continent.

I've started a Tauren Shaman on a normal server, so that I can document some of the lower level quests. I have a lot of other characters in other level ranges to help pick up as many as I can. I never expect to be able to completely cover World of Warcraft, but I expect to try my best.

I undertook the challenge of gathering all the data for the alin research paths. You can find the new material on the Rise of Legends Guide index. Evocation, Land Lore, Treasure and Vigor have all been detailed. I'll probably hop into the vinci soon since it proved to be not that time consuming.

Carl's Guides now approaces 300 pages and I'm quite proud of all the work I've put into the site. I can't wait to cover Star Trek Legacy as I'm sure to get loads of fresh content from it upon its release date of november 7, 2006. I had originally heard that the game was going to be released on october 16th but that information seems to be false. As a devoted Trek fan, I think it's worth the wait. I hope the game isn't bug-riddled as Starfleet Command 3 was upon its release.

Hopefully the extra time they spend will be used for a lot of stability and mechanics testing to make sure the game is going to run as intended. I don't think any game company gets it right on the first try but I do hate patching games every week.
