Burning Crusade Interview Video
Monday, January 8th, 2007Something I wanted to pass along to the readers, I watched this a few days ago, but it’s a good interview about Burning Crusade with Jeff Kaplan, the lead designer. Some things he says are good to hear, particularly for me the explanation of why they are letting shamans/paladins go to the other side with the expansion, and it does make sense, though a lot of people had thrown a fit about it.
At any rate a very good interview, and some great footage of the game and the new areas which all look really great.

Best Winter Event
Monday, December 25th, 2006A lot of games this time of year have a Winter event of some sort. For those of you that play any of the games that do, what has been the best one so far?
I’d have to say that I think City of Heroes/Villains does the best seasonal world events consistently, but I haven’t made up my mind yet for a definite this year.
What about you?

Great Video
Friday, December 15th, 2006Okay, not necessarily MMO gaming related, except for the fact that this video uses WoW game footage/images. I absolutely love the song, and Jonathan Coulton’s project/music in general.
Anyway, a great vid and song.

Burning Crusade Video
Sunday, December 10th, 2006
BB over at 1PStart has put up a video of the new opening cinematic for The Burning Crusade.
As always, Blizzard has done a great job on the cinematic, it really gets me excited for the expansion. On that note, the best part in the video has to be when the mage polymorphs. Priceless.
