By SUPPORT@WEBLOGSINC.COM (Michael Gray) The Critical Flaw Pilot by Ian Beckman is an experimental live action piece, centered around two roomies who are also gamers. You not only have your usual shenanigans in this kind of sitcom piece, but there's also a heavy dose of World of Warcraft humor thrown in.

By fastwowlevelingguide I have come across a guide that is very straight forward and lives up to what it advertises. The Zygor guide does everything it advertises, leveling up to 80 in less then a week with any character in World of Warcraft.

By Tobold(noreply@blogger.com) Once upon a time in World of Warcraft running around in full epic gear was something special. It meant that you were part of a relatively small elite of raiders who got far enough into raid dungeons to fully equip themselves. That made you stand out in comparison to the average player, who coul...

By Kate As far as how I rate World of Warcraft? Well I was not one of those people who thought the graphics were bad in WoW, in fact I was amazed on how smooth it was running on my old PC to even notice the graphics. I do have to say that I started as a night elf and like the way the graphics really match and flow...

By SUPPORT@WEBLOGSINC.COM (Zach Yonzon) We don't normally do hardware reviews. That's usually the domain of the guys over at our sister site, Engadget. But when Razer broke out the $79.99 Razer Naga last August 19 at Gamescom in Cologne, Germany (along with a glow-in-the-dark mousepad), and previewed it a BlizzCon a few days later...

By Tobold(noreply@blogger.com) Social factors: Every gamer at least knows somebody who plays World of Warcraft, there is a huge network effect of people playing WoW in part because their friends play. But this is based on inherent sociability of the MMORPG genre, not a specific quality of World of Warcraft. In fact World o...

By Tobold(noreply@blogger.com) Rinzai: I have been a devout reader of Tobold's MMORPG Blog for quite a while. Your talks have always inspired some unique discussion in my own guild, while we play our beloved World of Warcraft. I have heard about Alganon locally, actually. A lot of our guildfolk live in Phoenix, Arizona, inc...

By entertainmeguru If you have ever played an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game), you know how much fun it can be. But let me tell you, your whole perspective of the gameplay gets totally re-written when you play this game. It is unlike any other game, regardless of the genre.

By Mike Fahey Rob Pardo came on stage to talk about Battle.Net. Launched in 1996 with Diablo, it was the first matchmaking service integrated completely into games. It's evolved with StarCraft, Diablo 2, and Warcraft 3. The service now has more players on it than World of Warcraft - 12 million to WoW's 11.5 m...

By Mike Schramm It's PTR time in the World of Warcraft, which means we're all checking out the next content patch before any of the changes go live (or are actually finalized). So now's the time for crazy stuff, whether it be testing out brand new bosses, seeing Warriors get a chance to break open Pally shiel...

By Jalent For better or worse, World of Warcraft has probably the most customizable interfaces of any MMO on the market today.  The level of customization and what you can do with those addons has brought the game both criticism and praise.  Many complain that many of the addons cross or at least blur t...

By Joystiq Staff 2008 was the best year in the World of Warcraft yet -- we got a terrific expansion, a few content patches, tons of class improvements, and lots and lots of great gameplay out of it. The past twelve months have been very good to Azeroth's inhabitants, and we're looking for an even better time in...

By Mike Fahey Last month, the World of Azeroth got a great deal larger as Blizzard released the second expansion for World of Warcraft, Wrath of the Lich King. Wrath of the Lich King does what an MMORPG expansion should, adding tons of new content and refreshing the sense of wonder that drew players to Wor...

By Earnest Cavalli It's an odd quirk of massively multiplayer online gaming that World of Warcraft has completely trumped its competition not purely on the creativity of its gameplay, but by delivering a game that isn't broken. The MMO's latest expansion, Wrath of... 40, Blizzard Entertainment

By Medeor There is another game launching in November and it doesn't have the words Warhammer, or Lord of the Rings in it. It does involve the phrase World of Warcraft but not in the way you are expecting. Upper Deck is releasing a new miniatures game called surprisingly "World of Warcraft Miniatures G...

By Ludo On the whole, I know this will achieve nothing, WoW will continue to sell. Blizzard will never need to change it and other companies will emulate them. There must be an appeal to this type of gaming somewhere, but now, as before, I could not begin to tell you what it is.

By Mike Fahey Dynamic Dungeons: Certain dungeons in Runes of Magic will be dynamically generated, meaning that you will go inside and gain treasures, come out, and the next time you enter the dungeon layout and treasures have completely changed.

By Enrico S. Tom Chilton, or Kalgan as he's known in the forums, is a very good source of information regarding Blizzard's World of Warcraft. He is the game's lead designer, after all. Well, he was recently spotted on the forums where he announced a few changes coming to the Shaman class.

By Adam Schumacher How could a notion like the ArchLord be transplanted into our other lovely MMOs? Well, right now, expansions and the overall direction of the game lies solely in the hands of the developers and we simply follow along with their visions.

By Marc Nottke Filed under: World of Warcraft, Culture, Guilds, Endgame, Opinion, MMOGologyAt long last I finally hit level 70 in World of Warcarft! Thank you, thank you!

By Dave Previously, I discussed some of the reasons why I prefer to solo through most MMO content. This got me to thinking about something I’ve noticed since switching back from World of Warcraft to Guild Wars. Players in World of Warcraft, despite the ease with which the game can be soloed, seem to b...

By Craig Withers There's a reason that Blizzard aren't removing old world content from WoW, and it's not because they feel bad that the old bosses don't have anything to do with their time it's because they're scared. Scared of what might happen if there were no more bad guys for us to kill. New content only las...

By Charles D. The WoW team's first impression of the Headplay is that it was designed for couch potatoes. That said, what better way to celebrate this lifestyle than settling down for another few hours of massively multiplayer online fun with Blizzard's World of Warcraft. PVP

By Kristen Schweitzer Flying mount, new quests, new monsters, new spells, jewelcrafting - these are just a few of the new features that The Burning Crusade has brought to the already popular game, World of Warcraft. The end game at level 60 was all that people had to look forward to when the original game came out.

By Ceasar S. Though Blizzard is probably content to at least provide something they can use to buff in absence of any other buff (something is better than nothing, we suppose), we still believe some value can be provided to the talent's utility.

By Enrico S. A lot of people have been busy twiddling their thumbs as they wait for Patch 2.1 for Blizzard's World of Warcraft.

By jellospike You can see I’m exactly the kind of gamer “targeted” by World of Warcraft: the Boardgame (even though I never played the online game), but still, I find it far from perfect. You really need some patience to enjoy the slow pacing and repetitive nature of this game, but if you take it as it is, it c...
