• A lot of people will make the mistake of looking for games on sites which have too many advertisements. These advertisements can take the enjoyment out of the games because we have to watch a load of them before playing the game. It would be better for you to avoid using these gaming sites.

• Make sure you read the reviews of the games before you play. There is less chance of you wasting your time if you do this. If a game does not have at least three stars then I won’t touch it. Don’t trust everything that you read however, because some of these dodgy websites have reviews that cannot be depended on. If you visit a gaming site and all their games have five stars then you would be advised to run a mile.

• There are some great blogs out there written by online gaming enthusiasts. You might want to use these blogs to find out which games are good and which ones are bad. I am already subscribing to a couple of these online gaming blogs with my RSS reader.

Online gaming is an extremely popular activity today. It gives them a chance to relax and unwind from the grind of daily life. There are very popular online games around at present, but amongst the most popular are Angry Birds.

• We are definitely going to see huge improvements in online gaming. This will mean the end of the game console; there will just be no need for such a device. The speed of the web will advance to such an extent that game developers will be able to create amazing games to take advantage of this. This change is going to happen fast so do not waste your money on more console games.

• I think that the future will see us becoming the characters of these games rather than actually playing a character. The games are going to be fully immersive and we will therefore be stepping into the game. You should expect the level of entertainment to be something totally new because everything will look so real. I reckon that some people will spend too much time in these virtual worlds and there will be an outcry about it.

• I believe that over the next few decades, we will no longer have any line between movies, social media and gaming. It will be possible for us to take part in the movies we are watching instead of enjoying them passively. We will be able to affect the storyline by interacting with the characters. We can have more fun by being joined in the movie by the people we know. Every movie will provide hundreds of hours of entertainment because of the gaming and social potential.

Online gaming is an extremely popular pursuit today. When a bit of r’n'r is required to help unwind from the stresses of daily life, these online pastimes really help. One of the most popular online games around at the moment is Play Angry Birds.

We discussed about some of the changes coming up in Patch 3.0.8 before so check it out if you have forgotten about it.

Now let us get back to Inscription. What we have this time is a new Ink vendor in Dalaran. Meet Jessica Sellers. Jessica Sellers will sell most of the inscription inks for the cost of one Ink of the Sea. However, if you aim for the Snowfall Ink, be prepared to spend 10 Ink of the Sea.

Yes, this pricing is rather steep (most of us agreed that 5 should be enough) but there is a reason why Snowfall Ink is more expensive. Apparently, we do not want to flood the market with Snowfall Ink.

Glyph of Arcane Blast is added to the Master and Grand Master Inscription trainers, so it is important for you to learn it. On the other hand, Glyph of Death Decay has been changed to grant 20% additional damage while Glyph of Invisibility duration has been increased. You should also know that Glyph of Deterrence: Now -10 seconds instead of -20 and Glyph of Holy Light now affects friendly targets in a larger radius.

I guess that’s all for the time being. Until we have received more news about Inscription, good luck with selling your Ink of the Sea.

If you can complete all the holiday achievements throughout the year, you will be eligible to participate in the achievement known as What a Long, Strange Trip It’s Been, which rewards you with a Violet Proto-Drake.

We will focus on Metzen in this edition.

First of all, you will need level 40 and above to participate in this achievement. It is pretty straight forward. You will have to complete the seasonal quest known as Metzen the Reindeer.

For Alliance, it begins and ends with Wulmort Jinglepocket in Ironforge.

As for the Horde, you will need to seek out Kaymard Copperpinch in Orgrimmar. Metzen is located in two places, and either faction can save Metzen in either location.

When you are in Tanaris, you will find the reindeer in a stable in the Lost Rigger Cove encampment. If you are in the Searing Gorge, you will be able to find Metzen hanging out with some Dark Iron Dwarves near the tunnel to Loch Modan.

In addition to the rewards for the quest, you will earn 500 reputation with the Steamwheedle Cartel. You can try to complete this when you are around level 40 but consider getting a group with you as you might die doing this.

Cooking has become a necessity for all characters. You can lay an entire feast for your own party and with the Dalaran cooking quests that has recipe rewards, cooking quests are getting much more interesting.

No more a few gold and mats a day as cooking has become a currency of its own. Therefore it is really useful to level up the cooking skills for your character. If you have a level 80 character, there is no reason why you shouldn’t be leveling the cooking skills. You might find it useful in the days to come.

Cooking is something to look forward rather than being just mundane and boring. You got to try it to believe it.

Most of the fans should be getting enough rest within these two days to await the day when they have to line up and maybe even camp outside the stores that offer midnight launch for Wrath of The Lich King.

While the fans waiting and anticipating the release, there has been some issues regarding GameStop midnight launching. Most GameStop branches are in malls and the malls are charging way to high for GameStop to pay in order for the mall to keep the door open after midnight.

However, rumours had it said that Activision Blizzard is paying the malls to remain open even after midnight all for the sake of the launching. This is rather serious because most of the fans and customers of GameStop have been told that they are going to be organising the midnight launching before the cancellation news came along.

Still, there is no evidence that strongly suggests that Blizzard is paying the malls but of course there is a high possibility that they are doing it in discreet because:

1. If they missed out on the GameStop midnight launch, they will missed out on more sales.

2. It is for their own good as well, to keep the money rolling in.
