  • Google Makes Augmented Reality MMORPG To Play IRL
    November 16, 2012
    Because real life is boring when you're not staring at a phone, Google has created Ingress, an augmented reality "Warcraft like" MMORPG that's played in real life through an Android app. I'm not sure how I feel about it EXCEPT I AM GOING TO F***ING WIN. I played SimCity, I kn... / Continue →
  • +5 Politics: World Of Warcraft Player Wins Senate Seat
    November 7, 2012
    Leeeeeeeeeeroy Jenkins! I meant to post this story last month, but, I'm going to be perfectly honest with you, I got drunk and forgot about it. But now we know the results so I don't have to write about it twice, which works out for me because words can be tricky to type. An... / Continue →
  • World Of Warcraft Expansion Gets A Cinematic Trailer
    August 17, 2012
    This is the cinematic made to advertise the latest Warcraft expansion, 'Mists of Pandaria'. I'm pretty sure all you hardcore World of Warcrafters (WoWzers?) have already seen it, but it's worth a watch even for your non-players. Me? I'm the opposite of a player. One time at... / Continue →
  • Dedicated: World Of Warcraft Full Back Worgen Tattoo
    March 2, 2012
    This is a dude's full back tattoo of a Worgen from World of Warcraft. It's pretty much a direct reproduction of Blizzard's official art of the species HERE, but with some ever-so-slight variations. Mainly the skull at the bottom. Oh, and dude's buttcrack. Which, despite the... / Continue →
  • The Lightsaber Hilts From Star Wars: The Old Republic
    February 9, 2012
    Note: The larger version you're looking for is right HERE. Are these all the options for lightsaber hilts in the MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic? I have no clue, I'm not playing it. They all do look pretty cool though. They also all look like dildos, so take that for wha... / Continue →

  • Chuck Norris' World Of Warcraft Commercial
    November 21, 2011
    This is a World of Warcraft commercial featuring Chuck Norris. It's topical because of this whole Chuck Norris joke craze that just started on the internet. "That was 2005." Exaaaactly. DIABLO III BETTER NOT SUCK. Hit the jump for the video time machine.... / Continue →
  • North Korean Hackers Farming MMORPG 'Gold' To Fund Kim Jong Il's Nuclear Program
    August 9, 2011
    Now this...this is a fancy television. Because nukes don't pay for themselves no matter how many times you insist you only brought enough cash for your own meal, North Korean operatives (if you can call a person involved in farming MMORPG points 24/7 an 'operative') have been ... / Continue →
  • Should've Done The Dew: Gamer Dies After 3-Day Binge At Internet Cafe w/o Food, Sleep
    February 22, 2011
    In sadder news, a 30-year old Chinese gaming addict has died after staying up for 3-days straight (presumably mining for gold) at an internet cafe with no sleep, and very little food or water. I could've gone four. The man reportedly lost consciousness at an internet cafe on ... / Continue →
