The NetDevil team got happy with the updates so I'm going to give them all to you right here and now. Drumroll please...

Game Info Update: Redline Outpost One of the fifteen Outposts in the Ground Zero region (and fairly close to some Human bases).

Two new team bios. Featuring NetDevil Systems Designer Matt Puccio and Content Designer Sheldon Pacotti. I can't help but have "Welcome to the jungle" playing in my head as I do this one.

Drivers Ed! Now online and mostly updated. This is not intended as a comprehensive guide to the game, but an introductory look to the current state of the Auto Assault beta and its systems.

Have you been reading the novels up to this point? Me? Mmm Not so much. However, if you'd rather read about it than play it, the next novel is now available.

The new Warcraft novel Cycle of Hatred is now available! Cycle of Hatred's story takes place three years after the events of Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos. The Burning Legion has been defeated, and the eastern regions of Kalimdor are now shared by two nations: the orcs of Durotar, led by their noble Warchief, Thrall; and the humans of Theramore, led by one of the most powerful mages alive - Lady Jaina Proudmoore. But the tentative peace between orcs and humans is starting to crumble. Random attacks against Durotar's holdings suggest that the humans have renewed their aggression towards the orcs. Now Jaina and Thrall must avert disaster before old hatreds are rekindled - and Kalimdor is plunged into another devastating war...

Last week I was in a snit over the fact that Utah's House of Rep's passed HB257 which would have in effect placed violent video games in the same light as Porn. It passed by a landslide in the House but then had to go to the Senate.

The Senate saw the light and smacked it down like the schmack that it was. You can read Game Politics's article here. Our constitutional rights are still safe for the time being!

There's a new beta test session in town and he's going to kick your butt!
