Blizzard Announces Release Date for Warcraft Movie

Today Blizzard announced its much anticipated movie based on its massively popular MMO, World of Warcraft, will be released December 18, 2015.

I think I speak for all Blizzard fan-boys when I say "SQUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEE!!"

Patch Day at its Finest

Either Oondasta took a tinkle, or this is one of the best/worst graphical bugs I've seen.

Pandaria To-Do List

Hello everyone!

A few weeks (months?) ago I created my Pandaria to-do list highlighting everything I wanted to accomplish during the expansion.

For anyone that follows my blog, you know this wasn't my first to-do list...

Pre-Cataclysm To-Do List


Unfortunately, I've been a ghost recently - playing WoW only once a week to run TK and Onyxia for the mounts. The middle of the expansion hit me like a sack of bricks and I've just been finding it hard to justify playing.

With the last patch of the expansion looming, I wanted to take a look at how I've done...

5.4: Siege of Orgrimmar Trailer Released

Say what you want about the state of Warcraft these days, those guys know how to hype a patch. Check out the awesome trailer for patch 5.4.

San Diego Comic Con: Warcraft Movie Teaser Trailer

Nerds and geeks lucky enough to get tickets to San Diego Comic Con (when I tried to get tickets the website crashed grrrr) were given the first glimpse of the long-awaited Warcraft movie when a surprise teaser trailer was shown during the Legendary Films/Warner Bros. panel.

News sites are describing the trailer as featuring a Human warrior standing in an desert world with a glowing green sky and dark, ominous clouds. The warrior picks up an Alliance shield off of a skeleton and is then besieged by an Orc. As the Orc approaches, swinging his mace towards the Human, the trailer cuts to the logo.

As of now, no footage of the teaser trailer has been located online (believe me, I've looked). MMO-Champion is also reporting that there are currently no plans to officially release the video.

Looks like the rest of us will need to cross our fingers for a grainy cell-phone video to surface on the interwebs.
