If you have having issues connecting with people in Baldur's Gate 2 you will need to read the FAQ carefully. They used DirectPlay (from Direct X) to do the multiplayer. It requires both inbound and outbound ports forwarded for both sides of the game. Additionally, It requires these port settings on anything higher than Windows XP SP 2.

TCP: 2300 - 2400, 6073, 47000 - 49000

UDP: 2300 - 2400, 6073, 47000 - 49000

Hope this information helps someone else.

It looks like the wizard class might be primarily the area of effect spell caster. Some of the new spells shown on the trailer and game play look really nice.

Wizard Trailer

I first wanted to say thank you to my friend Anbon for coaxing myself and my wife Pam to show up to Convergence this year! I saw many interesting people and sat through some pretty amazing sessions. Some people that I met were John Kovalic, Kenneth Hite and James Kakalios. I ended up learning a lot about gaming and role-playing that I did not even consider. As being a newbie to Convergence I would like to mention that I felt that the hotel they used for the Convention was too small to accommodate the amount of people that showed up. I will post photos from this when I get my photo gallery extensions figured out.

Well it appears that the folks at Blizzard decided to scoop up individuals who were sick of playing World of Warcraft. It appears that Diablo III has already hit wikipedia (that means it's official right?)

The gameplay footage looks amazing. Currently, there is only two characters revealed. You know how Blizzard is though, they say something is going to be built and it comes out five years later.

Here is a few youtube videos of it:

I have always enjoyed games developed by Square Enix. The story line tends to be well thought out and the replay value actually exists. Last night I even picked up my Final Fantasy VII game and played a little bit around with it. I do not own any sony products though, so yes I am talking about the Final Fantasy VII for the PC.

This game that will be released (supposedly) on 09/02/2008 looks very promising

The game is called Infinite Undiscovery

This is a game that I am going to keep my eyes peeled for it's release!

I think the demo is out, so I am actually downloading it as we speak. Soo many games and so little time.

Another Video game that I can not wait till it gets released is called Overlord. You can read the preview of it at this url : Gamespot. I just watched the trailer and it looks really fun. I will most likely buy it on the 360, but it will be released for the PC too.

I am not much of a fan of online flash games, but I ran across one that is really interesting. I always enjoy blowing up Zombies.

So here you have it "The Last Stand" by CON Artists. See how many days you can last, the first time I played I only lasted 3 days. I think I lost my "gaming edge" thanks to the 3 years I played World of Warcraft.

I purchased Neverwinter Nights 2 recently and it got me thinking about how many games I am anticipating this year.

One game of worthy mention is for the Xbox 360, entitled Assassins Creed which I cannot wait for it's September supposed release date.

I just think the new ubisoft engine that they have developed for this game is going to be phenominal!

Then of course there is another Xbox 360 game comming out that I really can't wait for. The name is Blue Dragon and it seems to be one of the best RPG's that is released on the 360 ... /sarcasm

I am just confused as to why the PC is falling so far behind, oh wait World of Warcraft, Dungeons and Dragons Online, Any MMO. I want a NEW Fantasy RPG darn it!
