DS Firecard - Game Storage Made Easy With DS Firecard

The ease and efficiency of having all of your Nintendo DS games available from one source isn't as difficult to accomplish as you might think. A DS Firecard provides you with the best way to download your DS games and have your whole collection ready to play whenever you want to. All you have to do is transfer your game using a DS Fire Link, and you'll be all set. You can pick up right where you left off playing your favorite games.

The size of card you get really depends on how much storage space you think you'll need. If you only want a few select games saved, then an 8Gbit card will be enough space for you. If you'd rather be able to put as many games as possible on your DS Firecard, then the 2Gbyte version would suit your needs much better. If you're not sure or think that you might want to add games in the future, the 2 Gbyte card would be the wisest choice for you.

As far as external memory systems, you won't need to use these to download your games to your card. You don't have to deal with FlashMe or PassMe in order to get to your games. The DS Firecard offers a much more direct route that is easier to use. With the DS Fire Link, you'll be able to start choosing which game you want to play first in no time.

If you like the thought of customizing your DS, then you'll like the Firecard feature that lets you download skins for your menu. You can use Photoshop to enhance these skins even further if you want, giving your DS a little bit of personal flair.

You might have heard of other storage cards that seem similar to the DS Firecard. They might share certain features, but none will give you the quality of the Firecard or be as easy to use. The other cards, including R4DS, DSTT, and G6DS, all have their limitations and drawbacks. They do not outperform the Firecard, especially when it comes to game compatibility, convenience, and extra features, such as the skins downloads.

For the fastest and easiest way to have immediate access to your entire DS catalog, the DS Firecard is the best choice by far. You won't have to rummage through your stack of games looking for the one you want to play. Instead, you can just access your customized menu for instant gaming gratification.

WoW Mining Guide

Mining is a very important gathering profession. Mining has become significantly more popular with the release of the Jewelcrafting profession and is still a necessary component of Blacksmithing. Because mining is so important and in high demand it is almost necessary to use a mining guide to save time and gather all the resources you need for your main profession. This mining guide will help you gather all of the resources you will need to.

Some of these mining routes are better illustrated in map format and easier to follow. If you stick to the tips in the first section and apply those to every zone you enter, it will make it easier for you to find what you are looking for.

Mining Copper 1-65

Required Skill: 1

Recommended Level: 1+

Because copper minerals are so easily found in the newbie zones, maps will not be necessary. If you look for mountains, rivers, caves, and sometimes small hills you will be able to find all the mines necessary to get you up to skill 75.

Mining Silver & Tin 65-125

Required Skill: 65, 75

Recommended Level: 10+

The Horde and Alliance will start merging zones and playing with each other in the zones where these resources are most commonly found. These zones include The Barrens, Thousand Needles, Wetlands, Ashenvale, and Redridge Mountains. Obviously, not all of those zones are contested territory but the opposing factions commonly level there anyways. Below are maps to the routes I recommend, if the map of the zone you wish to do your mining in is not included, then follow the basic tips of rivers, mountains, and caves.

Mining Iron & Gold - 125-175

Required Skill: 125, 155

Recommended Level: 20+

These zones are where you can go to mine gold and iron. Be advised that if you are on a pvp server that these nodes can get highly competitive and will oftentimes come to bloodshed. These zones include areas like Shimmering Flats, Desolace, Arathi Highlands, and Badlands.

Mining Mithril & Truesilver - 175-250

Required Skill: 175, 230

Recommended Level: 40+

If you had problems with PvP or competition in the previous zones; I want to give you a fair warning from here on out that it just gets more and more fierce. The zones you will most likely find Mithril and Truesilver in are Azshara, Searing Gorge, The Hinterlands, Blasted Lands, and Tanaris. At 230 skill you can also find Dark Iron to mine but it is located in instances near Blackrock Mountain and the surrounding zones.

Mining Small Thorium and Rich Thorium Deposits- 250-300

Required Skill: 250, 275

Recommended Level: 50+

At this point in mining people do not mess around. They are most likely starting to farm to sell on the auction house and make themselves rich. Typically competition is very fierce for these nodes but with the release of burning crusades people are mostly pursuing higher up minerals. These minerals are often found in zones like The Burning Steppes, Ungaro Crater, Eastern Plaguelands, Western Plaguelands, and Winterspring.

Mining Fel Iron, Adamantite, Rich Adamantite, and Khorium - 300-375

Required Skill: 300, 325, 350, 375

Recommended Level: 60+

These are the new mining minerals introduced in Outland and are only found in the new zones. Please keep in mind that you have to be 300 for Fel Iron, 325 for Adamantite, 350 for Rich Adamantite, and 375 for Khorium. Rich Adamantite and Khorium are rare spawns in place of the regular Fel Iron and Adamantite nodes. These resources are found in the Outlands. Fel Iron can be found in all zones so just follow any of the below mining maps and you'll run into it. Adamantite typicially spawns in Terrokar Forest, Nagrand, Blade's Edge Mountains, Shadowmoon Valley, and Netherstorm. All of these resources can be found among the following zone routes.

Too Human - Resistances, Armor, Dodging and Avoiding Death Strategies

If youve recently found yourself banging your head against your controller wondering why a game whose controls seem so simple can be so difficult and challenge, welcome to the real Too Human.
By the time youve reached level 50 and played a few online games, youve started to realize that there are a lot of things in Too Human that can kill you. Even if you have a few Epic pieces, youll still find a challenge around every corner.
Fortunately, there are ways to increase your longevity and avoid the dreaded Valkyrie cut scene, not to mention the 2 million plus equipment repair bill.

Armor and Health

Pretty standard stuff here. The more Armor you have, the more damage youll absorb. The more Health you have, the more damage you can sustain without a trip to Valhalla.

Dodging

Although it may seem odd that a missile exploding beside you wont hurt you as long as you curl into a ball and roll out of the way, thats the truth of it. Stop taking those missiles right in the noggin and simply roll away. This also works for Troll stomps.

The only thing this doesnt do is cause you to avoid status effects. So if a Troll has a Slow effect, you might escape the damage from the stomp, but the effect will still hit you. Jumping will help you avoid both, but dont try jumping into oncoming missilesIve made that mistake one too many times.

Resistances

Not all attacks are equal. Its a good idea to get familiar with what kind of damage each type of mob in Too Human causes.

Goblins cause Slash Damage.

Dark Elves cause Piercing Damage.

Trolls cause Blunt Damage.

Undead cause Blunt Damage.

So what does this all mean? Well if you find yourself fighting in Helheim against the Undead often, its generally a good idea to try and max out your Blunt Resistance. The same applies for Dark Elves and Piercing Resistance. Increase the proper resistances or even having multiple sets of gear depending on the situation, will help you negate a lot of incoming damage and increase the likelihood youll survive the encounter.

AOE Defensive Charms

Try equipping and activating charms that will do Area of Effect (AOE) procs. For instance, I use the Gravity Well Charm combined with an EMP Pulse Charm. This does two things, if Im causing a whack of hits, chances are a Gravity Well will open up and suck everyone upboom I lived with very little effort! If that doesnt proc, and I start getting hit, my EMP pulse will go off stunning everyone around me and allowing me to make a quick withdrawal.

Think of different combinations to suit your style and youll be rocking any level you want in no time.

Buy Cheap Wii Games - Wii Dance Games

The most popular wii dance games for the Nintendo has thus far been the Dance Dance Revolution or aka. DDR Hottest Party.

DDR was created by the Tokyo based company Konami Corporation which dates back to 1973, they were famous for titles like frogger, scramble and Super Cobra. When Dance dance Revolution Hottest party first came to the US in 2007 it won huge applause, partially due to the fact that it was the only wii dance games that contained the one of a kind dance pad controller.

What makes DDR so different is that using a traditional dance pad with a Wii remote requires participants to match controller movements with the remote and the Nunchuck attachment as well as do the dance steps at the same time. This new innovation causes the whole body workout, giving the top part or your arms something to do as well, which upto now has always been solely focused on feet movements. The game supports up to four players at a time.

If you never heard of or played DDR then some explanations are in order. It's a rhythm game that has you stepping all over a dance mat to hit arrows that match the corresponding arrows on the screen. All this takes place to a the beat of a popular dance track. If your new to this lookout cause it isn't easy, you will have a hard time to keep from tripping over your own feet. Whereas veterans will be hopping back and forth, seemingly hitting all the arrows with ease. The diamonds correspond to hand movements and the arrows to feet movements. The game offer 3 different Play options namely: Free Play , Groove Curcuit, and workout mode.

Lets have a closer look at this game and see what some of the pros and cons are. Whatever method you choose to play Hottest Party appears pretty good. The colors of the game are bright and vivacious, the surroundings are neat and the game characters feel right and are well animated. DDR features extra backup dancers that are an unneeded visible touch, the main character should have been rendered larger, but nonetheless the game looks decent. The audio sounds for the most part ok with a list of approximately fifty tracks. They tried to put something in the music list for everyones taste. The announcer tends to be somewhat of a nuisance, who either compliments you or insults you all at the same time. Kind of like saying "you are really good at sucking!" Might get to you after a while, those kind of comments. DDR comes with one dance pad included, for multiple players each will have to obtain it's own dance pad.

Unfortunately there are not alot of other choices in the Wii dance games niche. There is Dancing with the stars which has received less than good reviews. Which also has dance pad incompatibility problems with the dancepad offered by DDR Hottest Party.

These type of get off the couch Wii dance games are gaining in popularity. I don't think the game will convert the player into the next Fred Astaire but will definitely give you a good work out.
