It’s time for the Midsummer Fire Festival in World of Warcraft and your Dragonriding Skyriding mount is ready to enjoy the festivities with their own special Midsummer Fire Festival Armor.

Tavern Talk comes out tomorrow. A fantasy version of one of my favorite games Coffee Talk (which was an inspiration for it), Tavern Talk looks like a fun opportunity to be an innkeeper, sending adventurers on quests and changing their fates via the drinks you serve. I played the demo when it was first released (still available if you want to give the game a whirl beforehand) and every character I’ve met so far is a delight. Based on what I’ve seen I’m hopeful that the full game will fulfill the promise of its demo and inspirations, and if not well I always have Coffee Talk to play again.

So while I impatiently wait for the game to release let’s answer some questions!

The solstice isn't until tomorrow but if you live in the United States you're already dealing with a ridiculous heat wave; our neighbors on the other side of the world aren't much luckier, as Australia is dealing with really cold temperatures as its winter commences.

Last weekend's Summer Game Fest and this week's Steam NextFest have conspired to give us a ton of demos to try out this weekend.

With all the excitement of The War Within's release date announcement this past weekend it's easy to forget that WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria is still going and will continue right up until the week before TWW's release.

Summer Game Fest was this past weekend and there were a lot of games that caught our interest.

The newest expansion for World of Warcraft has been announced and it is titled The War Within.

Summer Game Fest, the video game industry's largest annual event (now that E3 is officially dead, cremated, and its ashes scattered to the breeze), starts this week, and the sheer volume of shows  happening over the week is enough to make any gamer salivate.

Guild Wars 2's newest expansion is Janthir Wilds, which is set on islands long guarded by the wizards of the Astral Ward, giving us zones littered with the ruins of the fabled Mursaat along with more recent inhabitants such as the White Mantle.

It hasn't been that long since we learned that the untitled survival game did not survive Blizzard's transition to Microsoft ownership.
