Raid Warning Episode #10

This week in RW: Hunters get their turn in the dev Q&A just before they get their Worgen pet completely removed from the game. We discuss the latest on the Warcraft movie, as Sam Raimi gets officially on board. How does a few small Halloween masks create a world of expansion excitement and online frenzy? Blizzard releases more apps for the iPhone, gets back online in China, and decides they might just let you hop servers every 3 days. So stick around, have a beer, maybe even enter in our Twitter contest for a free 60 day time card. We promise we wont bite, unless you force us to watch more of that True Blood series.

Raid Warning Episode #8

This week on Raid Warning we discuss how Hunters gain a Worgen pet (only to have it nerfed, sorry), will Cataclysm be the next possible Warcraft expansion, a few changes to the 2v2 bracket (again), Twitter client addon for WoW, new pet and mount achievments, more on faction swaps which sadly excludes swans, changes to Warlocks, and… well… we get off track a lot and end up talking about Furries. It happens you know.

Raid Warning Episode #7

This week on the RW we go hardcore with some Absolute and Game Fuel, what we would consider to be the Hard Mode version of the “Beat the Drunken Enrage Timer” game. We also manage to cover the latest with Patch 3.2 as it hits the PTR, how the many versions of Tier 9 will likely make you look like a fool, what to do during an encounter with a dead cat, and Exodus gets THE world first… but will it count?
