World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
Blizzard's mega-MMO World of Warcraft has seen its latest expansion, Wrath of the Lich King - which was released in November last year - climb back to the top of the US PC sales chart as the release spike for Empire: Total War fell away.
That's according to the latest data from NPD covering the week ending March 28, which also revealed that the average sales price for the title was USD 33 compared to Empire's USD 46.
The Sims 2: Double Deluxe continued its seemingly endless run in the chart in third, the first of two Sims 2 titles, while the World of Warcraft Battle Chest took fourth place.

Aimforthehead writes: "After checking our e-mails earlier this morning, we found the following message in our spam tray:
Greetings,
We have a short but important announcement that we wanted to share with our players. World of Warcraft is currently an operation of Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. (USA), but starting April 14, 2009, the game operator will be Blizzard Entertainment's central European entity, Blizzard Entertainment S.A.S. (France), and will be referred to as such in the game's Terms of Use going forward. Our European office has been an essential part of our global operations since before the launch of World of Warcraft, and this update better reflects its role within our organization, as well as our continued commitment to our European players."

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
It has emerged that along with developing their own MMO, The9 is hiring another 100 people to begin development on more games, and that it intends to release two or three of its own titles every year.
It's unlikely these games they will rival anything The9 already operate for other developers such as World of Warcraft, but will companies like Blizzard think twice before renewing their contracts with The9 due to a possible conflict of interest?

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
We saw the EU team's World of Warcraft efforts earlier with the P1mp My Mount feature, now their US counterparts have revealed their annual joke.
Last year came the Bard, a new class that had a user interface similar to Guitar Hero, where players could attack others using "awesome chords" and such. This year, we have the Dance Battle system headed up by bad guy Kael'thas Sunstrider. Your "crew" will be able to have a dance-off against other crews, overseen by NPC dancemasters. A custom interface similar to the vehicle control provides players with a means to make the slickest moves to impress the judges.

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
Bornakk posted a tentative date for the announced end of Arena Season 5, indicating that the season can end "as early as April 14" or a week after. It should be noted that the first four Arena seasons had no breaks in between, with one season beginning immediately after the last ended. Arena seasons were only suspended upon the release of Patch 3.0 leading up to Wrath of the Lich King, with the first season of Level 80 Arena play beginning on December 16. This time around, however, Bornakk makes it clear that the next Arena season will not begin immediately but have at least a one week break before Season 6 begins.» Read More

World of Warcraft's Game Director Tom Chilton has spoken about the lack of aerial combat in WoW, but says it's something Blizzard would like to add to the game.
The PvP zone in Northrend, Wintergrasp, which was added in Wrath of the Lich King, originally had planes in the beta that players could take command of to bomb the opposition below. There were also anti-aircraft vehicles in the zone, however, both features were removed before the expansion went live.

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
Last week Wowinsider was kindly invited on the PixelatedGeek podcast and while there, heard from Darren of WoW Headhunter, a brand new site that wants to get you or your guild hooked up with some new guildies. The site is pretty barebones: you can look through available guilds or enter your own. But they do add a little something new: whenever you enter a guild into the site, you can create application questions and even run through a survey that charts your guild along four lines: between Reckless and Deliberate, Social and Competitive, Fun and Serious, and Learner and Veteran. So you can choose between the Reckless Competitive Veterans and the Deliberate Social Learners.» Read More

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
A new report from the PC Gaming Alliance into the state of the platform in 2008 has revealed that the "largest single platform for games" took around USD 11 billion over the course of the 12 months.
It also noted the growth of digital distribution on the platform, driven by the continuing success of services such as Steam, the growth of free-to-play titles utilising micro-transactions, and the sale of game cards at retail chains.
MMOs were cited as one of the major sources of income for the PC games industry, noting World of Warcraft's USD 1 billion-plus contribution as well as several Asian MMOs taking USD 100 million apiece.

China's General Administration of Press and Publication (GAPP) is gearing up to implement stricter gaming restrictions, shutting down games that do not meet the new regulations.
The GAPP will close down games that do not operate the fatigue system, which rewards players with less experience points in games depending on the amount of time they have been online. World of Warcraft already has the system in place.
The regulatory body will reportedly also not allow new games to be released in China unless they have the system in place.

Blizzard has responded to the news that the Chinese government is set to crack down on foreign online games by playing down its significance and insisting that everything working towards the launch of the Lich King expansion to World of Warcraft in the region is proceeding normally.
"As a matter of practice, we don't comment on rumours and speculation," the company replied to GamesIndustry.biz. "World of Warcraft continues to operate as normal in mainland China, and we're continuing to work with our local partner, The9, toward the launch of Wrath of the Lich King there.
"An official announcement will be made once it's ready to go."
