OnLive, is it OnTheBall?!

Keep Reading ...

GDC 2009 is underway and the biggest news to come out of the annual event has been the announcement of an online service known as OnLive. This “revolutionary” service intends to bring gaming to masses without downloads and without any installations.  Through the power of an internet connection OnLive intends to stream gaming goodness direct to your TV or PC regardless of hardware specification.

As usual, we couldn’t pass up an opportunity to bring you our thoughts on this, so we (somehow) assembled three of our “brightest” members of staff together to talk about OnLive and below you have a short transcript of their discussion. Hope you enjoy it and don’t be afraid to leave comments!

Ulduar Vehicle Section Hits The PTR!

Keep Reading ...

At this late hour the 3.1 PTR has been patched and the second phase of ulduar testing is taking place right now!

I quickly snuck onto the PTR and captured this short video showing off the bike vehicle used to fight the Iron Army that sits between raiders and the entrance to Ulduar. Vehicle combat in a raid instance is new to the WoW raiding scene and is sure to mix things up, there have been many concerns on the offical forums about vehicle combat but any fight with a mechanohog is cool in my books.
