Of all the major updates being implemented in Battle for Azeroth, there are very few that escape the scrutinous eyes of dataminers.

The Battle for Azeroth beta datamining you’ve been waiting for is finally here

No, you can't play the Battle for Azeroth beta (or even pre-order the game) just yet, but an 8.01 build went up on Blizzard's servers and so the datamining has begun.

StarCraft Universe celebrates open beta with a Blizzard-level cinematic

by Mitch on July 28, 2016 at 10:24am

It's rare that you watch a fan-made production and confuse it for the real deal, but that's exactly what happened when I watched the cinematic trailer for StarCraft Universe, the mod for StarCraft 2 that's less a mod and more an entire game within a game.

The Queue: Ten years ago…

by Matthew Rossi on June 24, 2016 at 11:00am @MatthewWRossi

On June 24, 2006 I and my then-fiancee Julian were married in a friend’s backyard just outside of Seattle. It was a blazingly sunny day, to the point where there’s a running joke between us that the sun was a guest. In the decade since that day, many things have happened, some good, some bad, but I can honestly say that it was the best decision I ever made. I love her and I have been fortunate to have her in my life and with any luck I’ll get to say that again in 2026.

Blizzard games have been a big part of our lives together — we spent time in Azeroth when we couldn’t be together before we were married, I proposed to her during a Molten Core run, we’ve raided and moved servers and played WoW and Diablo 3 together.

This is the Queue. Not going to try and be funny or clever today. Just going to answer some questions so I can go to bed (It’s 1 am as I write this) and see my wife.
