Note: Due to the release of the 3.1 patch, this list is very extensive. I’ve sorted it somewhat alphabetically, but due to how large the list is did not denote which addons I do not use so be careful if you are picking up new addons that they do not overlap.

My husband linked me a post over on MMO Champion about the new rules Blizzard has posted about Addons and their development:

# Before updating Macaroon, please back up your saved variables and delete the old addons as there are major changes. Your layout should be preserved, but something could go wrong.

For some people, they might find the in-game map for World of Warcraft perfectly fine and see no need to change it. I, however, am not one of those people. When I’m installing my addons after a fresh (aka ‘vanilla’) install the first few addons are always dealing with my action bars, but the second batch of addons all have to deal with the map and navigation. To me, the default map is woefully constricting and lacking in some much needed features like mapnotes. Today let us go through and cover some of the common Map & Navigation addons as well as some possibly not as well known but I highly suggest.
A while back I was poking around the internet looking for tour dates for Neil Diamond. My mom is a huge fan of his and I virtually grew up listening to his music. The first real concert I went to was the “On the Round” tour, yes.. with my mom. It was the best concert I’ve been to yet. So in poking around, I found out from his official webpage that he actually has his own twitter account: http://twitter.com/NeilDiamond/
Well, on March 2, 2009 he sent out a tweet:
I tweet, therefore I am. If you have questions for me, I’ll try to answer some here on twitter. ~NeilDiamond
I honestly think he was surprised by the amount of questions that came pouring in. I’ve compiled the questions and answers he was able to get to. Why? Because my mom, who as stated is a huge fan, isn’t on twitter. Also many of the questions/answers are done out of order so it can be confusing if you don’t pay attention. Links are to the individual tweets where each question and answer can be found. I did not include fan responses to answers, so please feel free to check their timelines and see what else they might have said. And I know this isn’t all the questions he was asked, because he never did answer mine. Considering he has over two thousand followers, it’s not surprising!
This review is one that I posted over on GameFly.
I’m not sure exactly why this game received such poor reviews. The only thing I can think of is that people came to this game expecting a Final Fantasy system and got a Kingdom Hearts clone. What do I mean by that? Let me try to explain.
For starters, everyone knows there is a major shortage of good RPG games on the Xbox 360. Infinite Undiscovery was, I’m sure, in most people’s mind a good stop over until the release of the next Final Fantasy game. People who have played any of the recent FF games are aware of the complex system of skills that the games have all had in the past handful of games. Skill trees, classes, combos, and whatnot. Infinite Undiscovery has none of those. Combat is simply two attacks with possible ‘connect’ combos with one of your party members. Very much like Kingdom Hearts. Leveling up means the possibility of unlocking new skills, but you don’t have a choice in them. What skills you do have are leveled up by use. This includes both combat skills/abilities as well as the crafting skills. This can be a pain since the only way to ‘rest to full heal’ is to buy a room at the inn. I think perhaps there might be later food items you can craft that will do this, but i have yet to find a vendor that sells enough of the food items to seriously grind the low level cooking skills. There are two free game addons through Xbox Live that allow you to buy the materials you need for armor and (most) weapons from -any- vendor. Crafted items are exactly the same you can buy from the vendors, in fact most the time I found myself with better equipment through crafting than buying.
The best thing I found about the game was the story itself. Since I rented the game through GameFly I didn’t possess the booklet so I had no real idea what the game was about at all. It was disorienting at first, but I found it immensely fun because I was able to learn the story along with the main character. And what a story it was. I really loved it. Give this game a chance.
