Blizzard Hosts Fifth Anniversary Sweepstakes
Posted by Amatera on Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009 - 8 Comments
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

Almost three months after WoW returned back to China (albeit censored) after a months-long hiatus, the game has hit a snag once again. According to a Wall Street Journal article, NetEase, the company which relaunched the game after former provider The9 ran into financial troubles and lost those rights, is essentially in a “turf battle” with ...

Darn You, Broomsticks and Marionettes

Now that everyone is busy shaking their maracas and eating skull pastries, why don’t we take a quick look back at the other celebration that just passed? Easy things like bobbing for apples and eating G.N.E.R.Ds will only get you so far during Hallow’s End. To truly “complete” the holiday you have to contend with ... More

The Day of the Dead is upon us. Now is the time to get the Dead Man’s Party achievement, which I recently obtained on my Death Knight. To get the achievement, just /dance with Catrina near any major graveyard. The cooking part seems to only be doable in Dalaran or in your race’s captiol city’s graveyard. ... More
