World of Warcraft Eurogamer's
World of Warcraft Q&A speaks with producer Shane Dabiri about Blizzard's
MMORPG: "We have a lot of respect for the other companies making games in
this genre. Since working on World of Warcraft, we have become well aware of
the commitment and dedication it requires from a developer to not only
produce one, but to also support it for years to come. We feel World of
Warcraft will help break MMOs out of their current niche market. With
millions of dedicated Blizzard fans from our other games, we think World of
Warcraft will not only draw in the hardcore MMO gamers, but newcomers as
well. We've taken steps and designed our game to ensure that it is
compelling and easy for anyone who has never played an MMO before. It is our
hope to have the largest online community for a game of its type worldwide."

Sims 2 Q&A on Fragland.net
talks with Maxis senior producer Tim LeTourneau about the virtual life
sequel and its upcoming collegiate expansion: "The problem with adding
sports into the Sims is that you can’t control the players in the game, for
example: if you play volleybal, you can tell your Sim to play volleyball,
but you cannot control the game or the ball - and that’s not a satisfying
gameplay experience."
