I’ll be the first to tell you that I’m happy about the changes being made to Murder. The description below isn’t just ... More

Five years — a fifth of my own life — I’ve been playing World of Warcraft. Though many MMOs have been around longer, none have been able to sustain their steam (and, in fact, increase in popularity) for more than a couple years, let alone half a decade. And for all the bitching, whining, and ... More

Have the the Hallow’s End festivities been keeping you busy? Between the daily slaughtering of the Headless Horseman, trick-or-treating hourly to keep up my chances of collecting all those masks, and running around “wanding” my guildies, I’ve been trying to enjoy the event to its fullest.

The developer chat we told you about a few days ago has come and gone, and I bet you’re wondering: what undoubtedly delicious morsels of information do we have for you to consume?

Hallow’s End 2009: Why No Goblin or Worgen Masks?
