The MMO Times: E3 2013

MMO Times Issue 78!Issue 78: Greetings Gamers!! Did anyone attend E3 this week? I know there has been a plethora of news coming out this week between E3 and Apple’s WWDC so maybe I found something that slipped past your eyes while following all the news streaming out of California. Most of the E3 news pertains to console systems and making a mockery of Microsoft’s new XBONE (this post is not compatible with the XBox One, please buy an XBox 360 to continue reading *narf!*).

More details and images about the Patch 5.4 are coming out (including a new Garrosh model). The Secret World is offering up something for players this weekend (6/14 – 6/17). World of Warplanes and Elder Scrolls Online news, and more! Also, don’t forget that RIFT has officially gone Free-2-Play. Enjoy!

The MMO Times: Heroes Assemble!

mmotimesheaderIIIssue 77:Instead of finding a headline about Marvel Heroes, I thought I would remind everyone here, Marvel Heroes went live this week (in case you didn’t know)! I haven’t tried it out yet but I haven’t heard anything bad about it, usually if something is bad the first thing gamers do is whine about it online. In fact I’ve heard that if you enjoy League of Legends that you will really enjoy Marvel Heroes! If anyone out there has an opinion about the game so far, I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts.

You will notice that June 4th was quite a newsworthy day; it was not only the day that Marvel Heroes went live but there were quite a few announcements and some pre-E3 trailers unveiled. There is some RIFT, Aion and World of Warships news, an announcement from Blizzard and Bioware, and more! Check it out!

The MMO Times: Scrapped!!

mmotimesheaderIIIssue 76: No, I’m not scrapping The MMO Times, its just a headline that encapsulates the big story in this issue. Blizzard seems to be going through some rough times. First down another 1million+ WoW subscriptions, then Diablo III auction house issues and now Titan. You can read more about what has happened with Titan (if you haven’t heard yet) later in this issue.

Titan seems to be the only thing folks are talking about because details about the 5.4 patch are coming at a slow trickle. Fear not though gamers, there are plenty of other things happening with our other favorite titles, current and upcoming. Games like SWTOR, Infinite Crisis, and Marvel Heroes. Don’t forget, E3 is right around the corner and there could be all sorts goodies revealed (E3 starts June 11th and will be at the LA Convention Center – anyone going?) which may also explain the lack of significant gaming news.

The MMO Times: Blizzcon is Back!

mmotimesheaderIssue 70: A moment of silence for the loss of LucasArts … as Disney continues its effort to deconstruct my childhood. I’ve covered this topic in a separate post so lets focus on more fitting and jovial topics. So whether you are plundering The Throne of Thunder or questing in Cairo, here is some news for you while waiting for queues or maintenance to complete.

There is some exciting news regarding Blizzcon which I know we are all pumped for its return. Actually there is more Blizzard news too, regarding their secret new project. More features coming to Age of Wushu (theoretically), more Neverwinter beta news; I mean after a slow trickle of news post-PAX East, its good to finally have several topics to read about. Enjoy!

The MMO Times: It’s PAX-tastic!

mmotimesheaderIssue 68: It’s PAX East week so there will be several posts that talk about what was unveiled. The one everyone is really anxious about is Blizzard’s “Something New”. We already knew about the Diablo III PS4 migration so if you weren’t paying attention to the PAX news then I guess you will have to read on to find out what Blizzard unveiled (I’ll be honest though, its not really that epic).

Beyond that we have a couple of new tidbits about the upcoming Age of Wushu MMO (due out April 10th). The first piece of news about Patch 5.3 for World of Warcraft. A new MechWarrior Online trailer. And more!

The MMO Times: The Thunder King Cometh

mmotimesheaderIssue 66: Greetings Gamers! If you’re playing WoW then you know that Tuesday is/was patch day and you may need something to read while waiting for the servers to come back online. There is also the chance that nothing will be working once they do, though Blizzard has been better lately about keeping the realms stable on patch days.

So if you’re looking for something to read you can check out this issue which contains the patch notes for the WoW patch but also a Star Trek Online teaser, Blizzard PAX news, and some more information on Age of Wushu and the Guild Wars 2 February patch. Read on and game on, friends.
