From March 11 - 18, Diablo 4 is offering everyone a chance to try the new Paladin class from the upcoming expansion Lord of Hatred, for free during the first week of Season 12.

My favorite thing about gaming is the weird lil guys. They’re rarer in AAA, but they’re there if you look.

World of Warcraft Midnight is the Light versus Void face-off we've been waiting for, but today we're thinking smaller -- much smaller -- because cuteness doesn't need to exist on a cosmic scale to warm our hearts.

This week all World of Warcraft servers are scheduled for two hours of downtime this morning, and it seems like a more reasonable time period than last week's optimistic one-hour maintenance, which wound up running for two hours anyway.

This week saw the release of Blizzard's first significant decor pack for WoW Player Housing on the Blizzard online store.

World of Warcraft Midnight starts off with four main factions you can earn reputation and Renown with: Silvermoon Court, Amani Tribe, Hara'ti, and The Singularity.

I love it when two of my interests come crashing together like a pair of hockey players slamming each other into the boards! Once again, World of Warcraft sponsored an Edmonton Oilers game, and they were exceedingly kind in inviting me along for the ride! The Blood Elves came back to support the Oilers, and there were prizes, pizzas being parachuted down from the ceiling, and a cool limited edition t-shirt of the Oilers mascot, Hunter the Lynx, glowing all void-y with the Warcraft W on his chest.

Last time they had us up in the special fancy box to watch the game, this time we were rinkside, and what an experience that was. I’ve never been so close to a professional hockey game! The puck was amazingly loud; you felt every slapshot that hit the boards viscerally. It was also super cool to hear it skitter along the glass as they passed it around the end of the rink. To say nothing of watching the aforementioned body checks up close and personal. It gives you a whole new appreciation of the things hockey players put their bodies through.

Sadly, the Oilers didn’t win, so congrats to Kalcheus and every other Carolina fan that night. I was really hoping that the Oilers would be heroes in the storm of Carolina. Still, it was a really close game (until it wasn’t) and I hope they decide to sponsor some Oilers playoff hockey…

While I pitch Blizzard on an Oilers quest hub, it’s time for our daily question and answer column — The Queue!

The team of adventurers-turned-detectives in our playthrough of Starfinder's Murder in Metal City has the body of Tier-99-Professor on their hands and the assumed murderer hot in their trail for getting too close -- but does anyone think they're really going to stop before they get answers about what happened?

Last week, World of Warcraft's Midnight expansion officially launched worldwide, and between playing the game and writing about the game, we've been pretty busy.

“Knight to C3,” commanded Peggy Sparklewrench. The gnome was determined to beat Medivh this time.

Medivh cheated. The black Knight burst into flames.

Having lost the game, Peggy said “screw this” and headed to the hot tub that had been set up on the Nightbane balcony, to take a dip with her new friends (a murloc, a cow, and Reno Jackson).
