Can you imagine the day of an eBay addict? He(or she) wakes up, goes to the computer, bid for a few items, then gets out to check the mailbox. After grabbing what's in there, comes back, pays for some items, grabs a snack, and goes to the Post Office to pick up some items. When our eBayer gets home, all there is to do is bid, curse those that won some items you were targeting, pay some of those you won, write some reviews, maybe also resell some stuff... but what about those who buy WoW accounts? Well...there's a nice place for them, too!!

As far as I can tell, there aren't cohorts of game accounts and various in-game items available on eBay, and looking for such things there can prove to be a waste of time, as long as there's a place allowing you to simply go to sell WoW account, or get additionale game goodies for Tabula Tasa, Guild Wars, Final Fantasy Online, Lineage I & II, and even Warhammer Online!

If you pay mmoBay a visit, I am sure you'll agree with me that this site is well organized, very easy to navigate, and - best of all - prices are pretty decent, if you ask me. The downside is that, at least for now, most items available are WoW game accounts, with 397 items available for WoW US, and 47 for WoW EU servers.

I know you may be wondering about those prices, so here you go - EU WoW Account (Lv 70 Warrior, Lv 64 Arc/Frost Mage and a perfect Lv 19 Twink Priest), almost 8 days left until end time, start bid is EUR 325.00, or "Sunwell Mage 2400dps on Brutallus - Best Account Available - Lvl 70 Full 8/8 T6 Mage, plus 70 Warrior and 70 Priest, full epics, all with Epic Flying Mounts," for an impressive start bid of $1,000!

If you don't like it, don't buy it, but if you do, go ahead and tell the others! Since there's eBay, and it goes so well, why not mmoBay? After all, seeing such prices may seem frightening to some, but think about the huge amount of time you need to spend to push a character up to level 70, and you'll look at this matter with different eyes, believe me!

No matter what some people around me may say, I am still far from reaching that level of knowledge to consider myself an experienced gamer. I am not talking about headshots or efficient resource gathering, power levelling, or dreaming every night about all the spells from Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. There's only one thing I consider "supreme knowledge," from my point of view - when you hear the name of a game or game producer, you must easily remember all there is to know about it, especially since some great names have crossed the Styx, and others are following as we speak...

If you didn't play at least one game from the Age of Empires series, then you can't call yourself a gamer, that's what I think. If you ask me about Age of Empires, I must confess I played a lot the first two games in the series, including their expansion packs, but I also enjoyed Age of Empires III a lot. Now, it seems Microsoft is going to put an end to Ensemble Studios, the creators of the series.

Yes, you got that right - independent developer starting way back in 1995, and Microsoft-owned since 2001, Ensemble Studios developed more than just the famous AoE, since <-125x125 Button - right->Age of Mythology is also one of their offsprings. Currently, they are working on the Halo Wars RTS, but this will be their swan song...

The story goes like this - Microsoft corporate VP Shane Kim told Ensemble Studios employees today that, despite being the ones behind over 20 million game units sold so far, Halo Wars will be their last project. Reasons? Who cares about them, after all? Microsoft may be trying to cut costs and stay in the console race, but I think they should keep Ensemble, and not for good times' sake.

Just imagine this - "I am very happy to tell you that, only one week after its release, Halo Wars is already a great success, with over 2 million units sold so far, but this is it. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your services, you're all fired." Isn't life a *****, sometimes?

I don't know about you, but most gamers I know had someone close to guide them in times of need. I am not talking about their parents, obviously, although I've seen lately some families "fully loaded" with gamers, from the grandfather way into his sixties to his 5 year old grandson. Anyway, I won't get into dangerous topics such as gaming at early ages, since there's something more important to take care of - what happens if you simply don't have and can't find your gaming guru?

Play, save, play, die, reload, play, die, reload, play, save, die, reload...that's what usually happens when you're gaming without anyone to stand by your side. While single player games can be finished after some struggle, if you go online, then things may look worse. Why? Think about this - your countless reloads, deaths and save games are usually happening in your room, without any spectators, in most cases, but if you're playing online, a lot of people can watch you being humiliated.<-250x250 Square - right->

Gamertrainer.com is a website recently released, and its goal is to help you own instead of being owned. Promising full training sessions for computer and console games for any experience level, Gametrainer charges $30 for an hour with your own professional gaming guru. No, you won't get Jenna Jameson to show you how to use your joystick for that fee, but you could become a WoW expert in a few sessions, especially since a 5 hours training is worth "only" $130.

I know - the pricing seems ridiculous, but you could also think about the time you can spare by paying an expert to help you get to know a certain game better in a few hours, instead of days, maybe even weeks.

There are a lot of questions you'd like to ask about Gametrainer, I am sure of that, and I think there's nothing easier to do than read the interview with Dave Williams from Gamertrainer from TechPin.

Just one more thing - be sure to get back here and share your impressions with us, all right? I am dying to hear what others have to say about this, especially since I would gladly buy a game, instead of paying somebody to teach me how to play it...
