I’m John Hoskin and I’ll be your MMOG tour guide today. Enjoy the ride!

Everyone can use a feel good moment to start the day. Let’s go with this…
Thanks for taking some time out of your day to read this column. I appreciate it. If you happen to use Twitter, you can follow me @BoomjackTTH. I rarely use Facebook, but I do occasionally post gaming related tidbits on Google+, where amazingly people use real names.
If you thought my columns usually ramble then you’re going to love this ride. I was up unnecessarily early this morning after an unnecessarily late work call, so I’m going to my “write about this some day” list. Prepare yourself for a shotgun spray of unrelated quips and quibbles.
Onward…
EVE is Real contest voting has opened. Essentially we have a virtual museum of real player memories from EVE’s 8-year existence. Question: Are virtual memories real? CCP thinks so and it’s a pretty cool angle so check it out. While you are at it, visit our EVE site where some EVE gurus like Space Junkie, The Mittani and Martuk spill the beans about how a new (or veteran) player can have a better time playing EVE. Let’s face it folks, it’s all about you.
Who doesn’t like a good Transmogrification? Seriously. Who doesn’t?
If EVE or WoW aren’t your thing then we’ll go with a longer acronym SWTOR (or as we Reloaders call it… SWEATER). We have an exclusive interview with Emmanual Lusinchi, Associate Lead Designer on SWEATER.
It’s a veritable cornucopia of information.
Oh, and PlayerScore now has a database built in. Enjoy!!!!
