David’s 2024 Steam Autumn Sale Suggestions
I don’t normally write lists of game recommendations during the more “minor” Steam sales that take place during a typical year, like the Halloween Sale and the Autumn Sale, but I’ve found myself with a few worthy suggestions up my sleeve now…

My fellow denizens of Azeroth, World of Warcraft’s 20th-anniversary event is upon us. This event may already be live depending on when you’re reading this article. Blizzard Entertainment seems quite intent on making this anniversary event the biggest in WoW’s history, which…
All NA WoW Accounts Getting Free Game Time
The pre-expansion update (or “pre-patch”) for World of Warcraft: The War Within launched earlier this week, and I’m disappointed to report that the update’s first few days have been a bit of a mess, to put it diplomatically. For starters, Blizzard originally…
