Scott Brown Tells Us That Jumpgate Evolution Is Still Alive
I’ll admit to having a soft spot for anything science fiction. Aliens, spaceships, time travel, anything science-y pulls me towards it like a vast black hole. NetDevil’s reincarnation of Jumpgate, appropriately titled Jumpgate Evolution , had my ear for some time. Then the title went dark after being delayed from its June 2009 release date. NetDevil’s Scott Brown created a new thread on the official community forum to let the community know that the game is alive and well. In fact, his bullet point list details some of the drastic changes that have been made since missing its original release date. -”Battlespace” returning to more of its simulator roots from Classic, really a place to practice not advance.

Tom Chilton explains early WoW class balance (or lack thereof)
We see a fair amount of pining for "the way things used to be" in this community -- rose-colored hindsight that is, by all accounts, horribly wrong . Maybe you enjoyed the sense of wonder upon going through the game the first time. That's completely understandable.

Warhammer 40k MMOG Designed With Different Subscription Schemes From The Start; Not A “WoW-killer”
THQ hasn’t even released a final name for the upcoming Warhammer 40k MMOG, but that doesn’t stop the company from talking about it. And as my most anticipated MMOG, I won’t stop the information from flowing. Brian Farrell, THQ’s CEO and President, went on record regarding the pricing scheme for the title. Farrell told IGN that the game is being designed to support the North American/European preferred method of a subscription, and the Asian preference of microtransaction/time-based simultaneously. And odd choice, given that many top-notch MMOG are subsidizing subscription numbers with microtransactions even in the West. Farrell cautiously side-stepped the cliche term of being a “WoW-killer.” A smart move considering that every title that has attempted such a thing so far has failed to topple the behemoth. Instead, he feels that the built in fanbase from previous games – board and video – and the dark sci-fi world will allow his company’s new creation to be successful alongside World of Warcraft .
