If you're wondering where to blow a huge chunk of your tax return, we may have an answer for you. Despite its sleek design and impressive look, I find this peripheral comes at too high a cost ($249). It boasts many of the same features of other gaming keyboards such as the ability to key bind on the go, use multiple keys at the same time, and display your in game stats. The way in which this particular keyboard sets itself apart however, is the inclusion of a multifunction tactile LCD screen which can display your faction logo, act as a media player, and act as a multi-touch gesture pad for navigation in game. Other perks are listed for those who have a Star Wars: The Old Republic account including both a unique lightsaber color crystal and a discount of 10% on a total purchase exceeding $100. If you are interested in purchasing, or want more information regarding specs, they can be found on Razer's website. As amazing as it looks, for me it comes at too high a price.

General PVP tips in MMOs
1. Play as often as possible. Although it's cliche, practice does make perfect. I find every time I log back on it takes a few matches for me to get in the zone. The more frequent you play, the more second nature your gameplay becomes.
2. Do your research. Study up on the different types of classes you will be going up against. Know their abilities and the cool downs they have to wait for. By knowing their mechanics you can anticipate their moves and know which of your abilities to use against them and when. I find official game sites can give you the basics of class roles, but you should be reading forums and watching gameplay videos of your class as well. Make sure you follow their attack rotations as well as how they react to different encounters. By doing so, you can see which are successful and which should be avoided. Be sure to also read up on how to correctly allocate talents and what stats to stack. This often differs by class, build, and type of gameplay (PVE or PVP).
3. Duel your friends. It can improve your one on one game and can provide honest feedback.
4. If you can, record matches to analyze later on. See where you make mistakes and find strategies that consistently work.
If you have any other suggestions or have questions about the above, send them to mailbag@progressivelyaggressive.com.
Welcome From Mike!

| We Said We'd Be Back |
Welcome to the new Progressively Aggressive! First up, to our new readers, thank you for stopping by, I hope you find our posts as interesting and informative as we do. To those of you loyal enough to be returning to us, make sure you check out some of our changes, including our new contributors and site pages, and co-creator Ronniguy's welcome back post! As you navigate through the site you'll notice we've become much more organized and are looking forward to offering more focused coverage, especially on some of our favorite Cons such as C2E2 and ACEN.
For those of you who don't know me, I'm Mike Gallagher, I've been the site's photographer since our first Con, do my best to help Ronniguy out with logos and IT, and was a part of many of the original podcasts. I've since moved to the Windy City and for the first time you'll be seeing some written content from me as well. As we continue down the line you'll be able to search the site for label: OMG to find anything I write, and you can contact me via Mailbag@ProgressivelyAggressive.com, Twitter @Ouwosh, or e-mail me directly using OMG@progressivelyaggressive.com. As always, be sure to like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter @JRAggressive.
Until next time, sit back, relax and enjoy!
It's that time of year again! Beginning at 1pm tomorrow C2E2 will be opening its doors to the public. As is custom, Progressively Aggressive will be attending each day providing you with coverage and photos of all that we see. Check back regularly and don't forget to check out the photo gallery on our Facebook page. If you are interested in attending, be sure to purchase your tickets before prices go up at midnight. To purchase your tickets right now click here.
We're Back!
By now I'm sure you've all been wondering what's been going on with the lack of updates and our weekly cast. Well, the quick breakdown is we decided to revamp the site, halt podcast production to focus on written content, and to add more writers covering a narrowed scope of topics. The decision to stop the podcast was not an easy one, but with other outside commitments it has become virtually impossible for all of us to meet regularly and provide the same cast we had been making. With the extra time this affords us you can expect more posts, more events covered, and more time for us to improve the site. Some new additions to the site include, more con coverage and a dedicated section for gaming with reviews, strategies, technology, tutorials and more. We hope you enjoy and if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, send them to mailbag@progressivelyaggressive.com
