PC - World of Warcraft - Shut Yer Mouth - WoW Getting Too Easy John Landis writes:

"Wrath of the Lich King was a firestorm of tears from the hardcore, who complained that their elite raiding guild found the content too easy and didn't take enough skill or time to master. Now I see it all the time. There are people complaining that WoW has gotten too soft, that it's not the hardcore game that it started out being.

Excuse me?

Hardcore?"

PC - World of Warcraft - Darkmoon Faire France cancelled Upper Deck has posted on their site that they have canceled the upcoming Darkmoon Faire event in France for the TCG. They've been having events all over the world of this kind, featuring tournaments, exhibitions, and interaction with the game's officials and designers (I checked out one such event when it was in Chicago last year). And while they had planned to hold a Faire in Paris in 2009, apparently it's not going to happen -- they say there was "complications" with the "venue," and the event has been shut down.

PC - World of Warcraft - Teenager obsessed by World of Warcraft first to attend US internet addiction retreat The Telegraph writes:

"The 19-year-old man will undergo a 12-step treatment at the reStart Internet Addiction Recovery Programme in Washington state, which has opened for business to cater for the growing number of "cyber junkies".

A typical 45-day residential stay, which will include camping and wilderness adventures, will cost patients $14,500 (£8,800), but the retreat is also open to outpatients seeking respite from an overreliance on joysticks, internet pornography and spending days on end staring at a computer screen."

PC - World of Warcraft - WOW to support cross-server dungeons Eurogamer writes: "Amid the deluge of information on World of Warcraft: Cataclysm released at BlizzCon this weekend were a few morsels on the content and changes coming in future patches. The most interesting were at Saturday's dungeons and raids panel: a preview of Icecrown Citadel, and news that Blizzard will introduce cross-server dungeon grouping.

The latter feature will be implemented for five-man dungeons at first, although the technology does support larger raids too. It will work much like the current queue system for player-versus-player Battlegrounds, and draw players from the same pools of servers in their region, known as Battlegroups."
