Fantasy Flight Games is preparing an October release for the World of Warcraft the Board Game: The Burning Crusade Expansion (MSRP $49.95). The deluxe board game is the sequel to FFG's original World of Warcraft Board Game, which was released in 2005 and was also based on the hugely popular World of Warcraft MMORPG (Massively Multi-Player Online Role-Playing Game), which reportedly has as many as 8.5 million subscribers worldwide.

A common complaint among players in World of Warcraft is the AFK'ers in Battlegrounds. The AFK'ers would just join the battle and wait in the bunkers or the cave to see which side will win; if it's their group, they quickly join in to reap the rewards.

The site is a virtual-world version of the classifieds sections of real-world newspapers and real-world sites such as craigslist.org. Sometimes reposting your lastest Epic BOE drop on the auction house until it sells isn’t the best idea — all those auction house deposits add up.

Hortus announced this morning that the PTRs were going offline, concluding public testing for patch 2.2. To me, this means we're going to see patch 2.2 coming our way very soon -- perhaps as early as next week! However, we have known Blizzard to close the PTRs weeks in advance of an official patch release, so a final date continues to elude us.

The Ashbringer, who's lore is often expounded on by theorizing fans, is probably the single most talked-about item in the melee scene. Because of its rather incomplete history, people believed that the story would continue in Outland, for players were advised of another Mograine son within World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade territory that could aid in attaining the sword in its uncorrupted state.

Yep, the madness is spreading. Some guy has just spent almost £5,000 to buy a souped up character off another player in the online roleplaying phenomenon, World of Warcraft.
The character, a rogue, came wielding the much prized Twin Blades of Azzinoth [above], which drop off big baddie Illidan Stormrage from the The Black Temple. As if you didn’t know.

WoW Radio suggested to Hip-Hop group "Captain Dan and the Scurvy crew" that they record a WoW-themed rap track for their new album. They did, and the result is this.

Remember those DC Unlimited action figures of the World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade displayed at the DC booth during the San Diego Comic Con? Well, they're finally being showcased on the Blizzard website. Alongside with the first set of the series, the entire line of action figures made by DC Unlimited seem like a pretty collection you'll definitely want to display on your personal trophy shelf.

Owning this hat enters you into a very exclusive club, a club that only allows people who have way too much time to do meaningless things in video games to get even more meaningless items. However, the hat is still freakin cool.

For us gamers, playing our favorite games is bliss. What could be more cooler than a day on a comfy chair with a bag of chips sitting on our lap while raiding or PVP'ing in Azeroth in World of Warcraft? Answers to that would be few but we bet working behind the scenes of the world's most popular MMORPG is among them.
Blizzard Entertainment has put up a post in their official site announcing their plans of holding a mini job fair at this year's Games Developers Conference in Austin, Texas.

Still wondering about the finer details of World of Warcraft's upcoming voice chat feature for patch 2.2.0? Blizzard spokesman Salthem over at the WoW Europe Forums has set up an FAQ for this particular matter, which should help in explaining how the game's now-integral VoIP system works.

"One at a time please." If you're a first time World of Warcraft Shaman and found that the global cooldown for totem popping (sorry, it's this writer's expression) is a trifle too much, you might want to revel in a little Shammy lore. If the true count of deployed elemental totems eludes your mental grasp, experienced Shammies say you get to drop one totem for each element and that is all.

Whether Blizzard can actually achieve its plan of releasing a new World of Warcraft expansion every year remains to be seen. Wrath of the Lich King opens up the new continent of Northrend and brings with it an increase in level cap (to 80), the introduction of Hero classes with the Death Knight, siege weaponry and destructible buildings in Battlegrounds and further additions to keep fans hooked forever.

"Last night several realms did experience technical issues in regard to an exploit. This exploit was hot fixed within a couple of hours after it was discovered and the problem no longer exists."
Damron wouldn't specify what caused the bug, but we have since heard it may involve a problem with the user logging mechanism in the game's arena mode. We won't go into more detail because the internet already suffers enough entropy, thank you very much.

The difference between a good player and a bad one can be startlingly apparent when dealing with certain classes. If you've ever had warrior tank who never learned defensive stance, you know what I mean. Same goes for the paladin that uses holy light before the tank even takes damage. Read On...
