You might end up never needing Celestial Dew, but this is the Lands Between, a place where it’s just best to be prepared for everything at all times, so let’s see where to find it....
It’s not often we get to have surprises inWorld of Warcraft. Datamining is so common that it’s hard to avoid knowing everything about an event before it starts. That’s handy for having guides ready, but there aren’t many surprises left for players to discover.However, that’s not the case for patch 10.2.6— for now, no one aside from Blizzard has any details beyond the pirate flag teaser. This could mean anything. Maybe it’s a storyline about major pirate factions going to war with each other....

If the new console’s version of Kinect is anything like the current version of the peripheral, then probably not too good. Not to sound racist, but Japanese living rooms aren’t known for their size, and today’s Kinect doesn’t work too well small living rooms. Having Kinect required to use the console at all is one of the worst ideas I’ve heard in a while....

Well, with a renewed interest inArma 2(that thing you bought so you could playDayZ), Bohemia Interactive has released the 1.62 patch update for said game.

It’s been quite awhile since I’ve seen a developer tailor a patch for their game to an insanely popular community mod....

When’s that DLC out, again? “The Battle of Jakku” releases on December 1 for folks who pre-orderedBattlefront, and one week later for everyone else....
