Blizzcon 2009 Tickets: Sold Out
Have you got yours? Seriously at the time when the Blizzcon 2009 tickets were sold out, there were many still on queue and got frustrated. Still, there is no one to be blamed for that, after all the policy is first come first served.
Did you know that Blizzard arranged a special game for those waiting in queue to buy the tickets (sold out right now so don’t think of going to get the tickets now!).
The game is known as Failoc-alypse. Take the form as Terran Marine with a gun, a Draenei Death Knight, or a Witchdoctor. The mission? Take down as many fail-locs as possible.
You still get to play the game even though the tickets sold out.

Surely there are plenty of goodness for us all.

The upcoming major content patch, Call of the Crusade, will bring a host of new features for World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King.

New dailies, rewards, and more will be available at the Argent Tournament grounds to lure adventurers into the coliseum.
- Crusaders’ Coliseum: In order to prepare for a siege on Icecrown Citadel, players will be called by the Argent Crusade to test their mettle in the Coliseum. 5-player, 10-player, and 25-player challenges await inside.
- New Battleground: Isle of Conquest, a new large-scale siege Battleground, will be open. The Horde and Alliance will battle head-to-head for control of strategic resources to lay siege to the keeps of their opponents.

Night Elf Druid Bear
Druid players should be over the moon by now with the announcement of new forms for Night Elf Druid Bear and Tauren Druid Bear. This new change will take effect in the next update.
Tauren Druid Bear

Night Elf Druid Bear

The original announcement is here at Warcraft forum.
According to the Under Development page,
"In our next major content patch, druids will find a host of new textures for two major forms, cat and bear. There will be five different designs for each of these forms for the Horde and Alliance. Night elves can choose to change their cat and bear look at any time by visiting the barber shop…"
Basically, there is nothing to complain about except for the fact that if you want to have a different colour, you will have to visit the barber. Or else, you are stuck.
This is one of the biggest complain the forum though.
The biggest complain of all would be no differences between male and female in forms. Oh yes, how can one distinguish between these two sexes?
So, do you like the changes? Watch out on the next update to see these changes take effect.
