Notes I have a lot of love for World of Warcraft in each of its iterations. When I wrote 5 reasons you should love Mists of Pandaria, it really made me start to look back at the history of the game -- not necessarily the lore and story that I usually write about, but the various expansions from classic all the way to the upcoming Mists. Though the expansions themselves were vastly different in terms of story and progression, there are still things to love about every single one -- yes, including Cataclysm.Unfurl
Notes"At the annual Game Developers Conference this week, Palm and Epic Games are demonstrating Unreal Engine 3 on Palm webOS. Unreal Engine 3 powers Epic's popular Unreal Tournament 3 and Gears of War along with many other titles from leading game developers. Licensees of Unreal Engine 3 will soon be able to build games for Palm webOS. "Unfurl
Notes"One of the hardest bosses to fight is the RNG, or Random Number Generator. While the tactics are fairly straight forward (try, try, try again), defeating this boss can take a lot of patience. Lots of players don't understand quite how this boss fight works, so i'll attempt to explain.<br />

A few months back, I created a World of Warcraft addon called BunnyHunter, to help you track your progress when farming for rare pets."Unfurl
NotesThere is broadband internet, though. "It has no running water or working toilet, but this Mongolian-style tent, called a yurt, in the remote town of Seldovia, Alaska, is home to Erin McKittrick and Bretwood Higman, and their son, 11-month-old Katmai."Unfurl
Notes"This loot list is dedicated for helping you gear up your mage as best as possible. This list includes items from the Wrath of the Lich King expansion as of patch 3.0, but no raid content or pre-expansion (Classic WoW or Burning Crusade) loot."EmbedUnfurl

Notes"This week, we'll go over about half of the new factions and the Mage-centric rewards they offer. Then sure enough, next week we'll deal with the other half. Here at Arcane Brilliance, we're nothing if not predictable.

Notes"New York alt-rock legends Sonic Youth are about to out their stamp on New York's newest cultural institution: Gossip Girl. The band has agreed to appear on the show's fifth episode this season to perform an acoustic rendition of their 80's classic "Star Power." Text that, GG."Unfurl
NotesHuh. WoW is starting to call to me again with stuff like this. I missed 90% of the dungeons in the game, and never joined a raid doing anything but harassing a city. "Blizzard has made a few changes to the way keys and unlocks work in the old dungeons, so that you no longer need keys or multiple people to get to the good stuff"Unfurl
NotesThe real question, though, is will it play Progress Quest for me? "Pocket Gnome is a "bot" for World of Warcraft. Its goal is to make it easier to automate repetitive activities within the game; activities like moving around, killing monsters, looting, mining/herbing, skinning, and generally wasting your life waiting for your mana bar to refill. Pocket Gnome designed to do all of these things for you."Unfurl
NotesOh for crying out loud, put on your big girl panties on and use Boot Camp to play your Windows games. It's like a 20 second reboot these days, plus another 2-3 minutes before I'm connecting to a server in Team Fortress 2 (for example). "There's just one problem with Warhammer Online though...there's no Mac version! Yep, that's right. Somewhere along the way in its development Mythic Entertainment—the company who makes WAR—decided that they simply couldn't be bothered doing a Mac version. Unlike Blizzard or Maxis who both released Mac versions of World of Warcraft and Spore—Mythic stupidly did not. "Unfurl
NotesSeems somewhat sad when the game needs a game within the game to keep things fun, but kudos to PopCap for not firing the lawyer guns. "Fromwiller developed the add-on as a method of killing time during long raids and farming sessions, but it wasn't too long before PopCap caught wind of the MMO mini-game. Instead of issuing a timely cease and desist, the casual gaming colossus hired Fromwiller to create a more polished version of the application."Unfurl
Notes"Here are the facts: two dweebs thought it would be a good idea to hook up treadmills to their PCs, don brightly-colored wigs and cardboard swords, and race their avatars across about a mile of virtual turf by jogging in place with only a modicum of coordination and zero athletic ability."Unfurl

Notes"Out of sheer boredom and the need to do a little PvP research, I recently found myself exploring the Deeprun Tram on a local roleplaying server. With exploration under way, I trekked deep within the confines of the tram and found something rather unusual. What was this standing before me? Two naked night elves of course."Unfurl
Notes"Despite the fun this game has to offer, it is not without its eccentricities and frustrations. This list is long. This is not because the game is rife with idiocy (at least, not more than other games) but simply because the game is so immense."FeedEmbedUnfurl
