Nearly a decade after it released Warcraft 3, Blizzard still churns out updates for its seminal PC real-time strategy (RTS) game from time to time.

I've since finished the game and I am currently in Star Wars gaming hell as Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic: Sith Lords (the sequel) isn't on Steam.

Now I've known some months back that Bioware has been developing Star Wars: The Old Republic, an MMORPG based on the franchise. I browsed YouTube and came upon the Star Wars: The Old Republic Timeline video series, a 13-part video collection that covers several important points in the history of the Old Republic --- even Malak's (before he joined the Sith) battles against the Mandalorians. Knights of the Old Republic fans will be amused to know that the series even mentions Carth Onasi, a major character in the first game.

Batman: Arkham Asylum PC Demo HD Playthrough (Complete)

I got curious about this game as it garnered "9.0+" ratings all over the Internet (not to mention the impending launch of Batman: Arkham City). I downloaded the demo and gave it a whirl.

It's hard to describe Batman: Arkham Asylum as it blurs, breaks, and melds the barriers of several genres.

The awesome, 1-part, 18-minute HD (high-definition) video game playthrough after the jump.
