I got this lovely care package from Blizzard today, but as most World of Warcraft gamers know (especially those who got the game early), it doesn’t mean very much, because Northrend won’t be accessible until Midnight EST.

Any World of Warcraft player that has ever tried to carefully hurdle a pesky stream with their land mount, only to miss, get dismounted, and have to mount back up again, will be happy to know that Blizzard has heard your frustrated cry for help. We just got word that the first patch to be [...]

Day one of BlizzCon 08 wrapped up with a dance contest hosted by comedian Jay Mohr, and while there were no shortage of contestants, the gentleman below was our hands-down favorite “funny” dancer of the night.
