We love Lord of the Rings Online. Graphically, you just can’t deny that the world of Middle-earth is absolutely gorgeous. No exception to this is today’s One Shots submission sent in to us from our regular Lord of the Rings Online contributor, Finudir. He tells us a bit about this scene: Captains must always look to the past to find examples of great leaders before them. In one such exercise Finudir was tasked with saving a statue of Elendil, perhaps the greatest leader to ever grace Middle-Earth. Here is Captain Finudir of Gondor paying homage before the reconstituted statue. Do you have a…

Today’s image may not look nearly as awesome as it is when you consider the limitations of the blog format, but the above thin strip of image is actually an enormous Guild Wars Wintersday panorama! These gorgeous panoramas are compiled from several screenshots, carefully edited together by Shawn W. and then posted to his Flickr gallery of lovely Guild Wars panoramas for all to enjoy. You can not only find a full-size of today’s frosty festival image there, but several others, all waiting for your eyes. Great work, Shawn, and thanks for sending this in to us here at One Shots! If you’ve…

If you’ve created a panorama of images from your favorite game, we’d love to see them. Of course, if you’ve got lots of regular-sized images, we’d love to see those too. (We’re equal-opportunity screenshot fans, really.) Just grab that screenshot and send it to us at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name and the name of the game. We’ll post it for everyone to enjoy and give you the credit!

There are times when you just know you’ve gotten in over your head. Of course, to the resourceful player, this just means a fun challenge! One such occasion is the subject of today’s World of Warcraft One Shots, sent in to us by Greeen, who has been playing a Gnome Death Knight. Greeen writes in: This shot was taken in the Valgarde Catacombs. My first reaction was “Gulp!” ! The second one: “Attack!” The third: “Run Forrest, run!” Luckily this is from a quest where one receives a temporary immunity bubble - otherwise my little gnome Death Knight, Blues, would really have to show what she can do.

Are you once again (or perhaps for the first time) turning to Azeroth for your adventure? If you’ve snapped a fun screenshot from your favorite game - no matter the MMO - we’d love to see it! Send it in to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name and the game it is from. Descriptions are optional, but always welcome. Yours could be next here on One Shots!

One Shots: A snowball’s chance in… space?

*Foom*… *Poff!* The missile-launched snowballs have been flying fast and furious in New Eden. And hey, why not? After the holidays in EVE Online, all of the snowballs will melt anyway, so best to blow out all of that frosty ammo while you can! Today’s EVE Online One Shots sent in to us by Farrellus shows off a snowball fight in progress where a great big Orca has just been pelted with snowballs and is floating amongst the flurries. Thankfully the ammo wasn’t anything serious, considering what Orcas cost. If you’ve got a screenshot of a huge snowball battle - or any other type, for that…

We’re nearing the end of Warhammer Online’s holiday event, Keg End. As several of my friends would tell me, the end of a keg is a sad occasion, but this particular version has been pretty fun. Besides, you have all the great memories of friends and festivities to carry with you until the next keg comes along. Today’s One Shots comes to us from Urbaine Sunspear of The Rose & The Raven guild on EU Karak Eight Peaks. This is his 27 Swordmaster, enjoying the magnificent fireworks display as part of his Warhammer Online holiday celebration. Lucky for us, he captured this image and sent it in…

It’s been a while since we heard from this contributor, but we’re glad to welcome back Shawn W, who has sent in lovely Guild Wars screenshots and a panorama before. Today we’re featuring one of the smaller Wintersday images he’s recently sent in to us - but we’ll be bringing more of his incredibly lovely holiday panoramas to you in the days to come! With Wintersday at its height today until midnight in Guild Wars, this is a great time to pop back in and check out the events if you haven’t been able to make it thus far. While it doesn’t officially end until the 5th, today is the peak of the festivities, so don’t miss out.

Have you tried your hand at compiling a 360-view panorama from your favorite game? If not, why not give it a go and send in your results to us! Panoramas are always an interesting new way to look at a game world. If you’d like to give it a shot, send it to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name and the game it’s from. We’ll post it out here for everyone to enjoy and give you the credit.

Filed under: Super-hero, Screenshots, City of Heroes, One Shots

Ah, the winter months, when folks love to gather together and hang out by the fireplace while the snow rages outside. Of course, if you’re in a place where there is no such thing as snow during December like I am, you can enjoy it vicariously in games like City of Heroes and City of Villains! This One Shot was snapped by me while hanging out in the holiday-event Ski Chalet that all Heroes and Villains can get to from inside Pocket D. One thing I love about the winter events is that friends who like to play on opposite sides can get together and run the mission to Save Baby New Year together,…

91c53_os350_wow_425 One Shots: Bad santa

Oh the weather outside is frightful… and for that matter, so is the above gnome Santa. We’re not sure what kind of mayhem he’s got planned, but we’re really glad we’re just getting a screenshot of this scary-looking gnome. Johanis, ever the brave World of Warcraft contributor, sent in this spooky first-hand view of a Santa-gnome seemingly bent on destruction. He writes in: While wandering around Stormwind I came across what I can only describe as “Bad Santa.” He sure doesn’t look like that happy guy who visited everyone only a week ago. Needless to say I didn’t stick around long enough to find out who was naughty or nice. Yikes!!!

Have you captured a frightening holiday shot (and no, we don’t mean of your creepy Aunt wearing her favorite reindeer sweater) that you’d like to share with the world? We’ve got a spot just for those - here on One Shots! Just email them to us at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name and what game it’s from. We’ll post them up and give you the credit for scaring the rest of us.
