Fun Fact: World of Warcraft's player subscription base is equal to Ohio's population according to the 2007 census estimates. Even before the release of next major expansion Wrath of the Lich King, Blizzard has much to brag about. After Age of Conan and WAR Online both have released and Blizzard still holds a strong grasp over the MMORPG market, an ever-growing gaming scene, and has now reached a player base of 11 million strong.   Quoted from Blizzard: IRVINE, Calif. - October 28, 2008 - Blizzard Entertainment, Inc.

Yesterday the final major patch for World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade was released, meaning Wrath of the Lich King is almost here. Just like pre-BC, Blizzard decided to release a major patch of content to ease the stress of all the new content before the release of the expansion. With patch 3.02 came new spells, new talents, and tons and tons and tons (and I mean TONS) of new utilities. One of the major additions to patch 3.02 was the Achievement System, and I must say I'm pretty impressed. Read More...

Wrath of the Lich King Opening Sequence So for you people who are WoW-aholics, here is yet one more little thing to wet your whistle for the new expansion release. The opening cinematic for the expansion. Let me say, like all the others, it is beautiful. It has me more than pumped for this new expansion. The only thing I have to fault it on is that there still is no gnomes in their cinematics. Except if you look close in the undead army scene. Read More...

BlizzCon tickets sold out in minutes after Blizzard was finally able to put them up for sale. Later in the day Blizzard put a small reserve of tickets up for sale which were also sold out immediately (and I mean immediately). I would have loved to go to BlizzCon but the expenses are pretty high. $100 per ticket, plane ticket costs, hotel, goodies, etc... it would have been quite the piggy bank eater.   I know a lot of my friends didn't get tickets who were all looking forward to going, but alias they seem to begoing to LA still to get drunk and hang out with long-time guildies.
