Doubt anyone - EB Games included - could have guessed the launch of the WoW expansion Wrath of the Lich King would be the retailer's biggest ever. But today, it holds that record, an internal email circulated to stores revealing that Lich King was not only the most-preordered game the chain has ever seen, but is also the biggest-selling launch they've ever seen. And that includes multiplatform titles. Like GTAIV. Wow indeed. WotLK breaks internal ...

但凡说起暴雪新游戏的发布时间,总离不开一个问号。VR-Zone今天公布的一份清单列举了将于近期在新加坡发布的游戏,其中赫然列出了《星际争霸2》,时间是2009年第一季度。我们知道,《星际争霸2》将拆分为三部曲推出, 每一章节对应一个种族,其中打头阵的是人族部分《Terrans: Wings of Liberty》(人族:自由之翼),随后的虫族和神族部分则叫作《Zerg: Heart of the Swarm》(虫族:虫群之心)和《Protoss: Legacy of the Void Diplomacy》(神族:虚空之遗)。

感谢H资源共享的投递 马上就能在这个周末举行的DreamHack上试玩到星际争霸2了,这对身在欧洲的玩家来说可谓是个天大的好消息(当然,那些身在他国但盘缠足够的玩家来说也是个好消息)! DreamHack是世界最大的局域网游戏盛会,每年举办两次,地点是在瑞典的Jönköping。去年有超过13000名来自世界各地的玩家参加了这次盛会。 今年11月27-30号举办的DreamHack上,玩家们将有机会试玩星际争霸2,同时还要机会试玩到巫妖王之怒。作为参与者,你还可以向开发人员提出关于游戏的所有问题。 本次DreamHack一个位置的价格是83欧,不过好消息是,如果你只想玩星际2,那么一天只要10欧,还有,现在经济危机蔓延到欧洲,欧元对人民币贬值,所以无论是欧洲游还是去购物,都是不错的时间,前提是大家都银两足够! 0 顶一下

The World of Warcraft player statistics page has finally received a much-needed upgrade, allowing layers to track and compare in-game achievements with friend and foe alike. The ability to view and compare achievements comes with a lovely new graphical upgrade to the site and a brand-new statistics tab, which keeps track of various facts and figures Blizzard has been collecting since the Echoes of Doom patch hit the scene. For instance, since 3.02, my mage ...
