The
Warhammer Online website announces "A Parting Gift" for
Warhammer Online:
Age of Reckoning players as they gear up to gear down the MMORPG
next month. Mythic announces
that for the remainder of the game's life it is being offered for free to all
current and former players (thanks
Massively). Here's word:
Effective immediately we will be turning off
the ability to apply one month subscriptions and game time codes to Warhammer
Online accounts and removing the ability to open new Warhammer Online accounts.
To give Warhammer Online a proper sendoff we are opening the game to anyone free
of charge that has or had an account in good standing starting October 31st,
2013. We will be adding new NPC’s to the game in order to power up your
characters as well as other unique experiences for everyone to enjoy as we say
goodbye to Warhammer Online over the next few weeks. So please join us and help
say goodbye to Warhammer Online in one last big WAAAGH!
A new
live-action trailer
(commercial) promoting

action-packed roles we take on in games like the military shooter sequel. The
clip shows a crew of couch potatoes going all Michael Bay on their enemies
without even so much as a Hot Pockets break, though realism is restored when
Megan Fox appears on the screen as an uber-gamer.

Today is the day that Daylight Saving Time ended in these parts, so we did the
whole "fall forward" dealie. As stated often in the past, I prefer daylight time
to standard time, but the 25 hour day is awesome... I vote for finding a way to
slow the Earth's rotation to make all days 25 hours long.
