It doesn't seem like StarCraft is pushing two decades, but these anniversaries have a way of creeping up on us. If you were at all into the beloved sci-fi strategy game back in 1998, I'm sure you have vivid memories of sneaking in late-nigh...

Blizzard goes hard on eSports at BlizzCon. Every game has its own eSports stage (Overwatch even took over the StarCraft arena from last year), analysts, and commentary. Here's a recap of what went down.

[Update: Come to find out, I actually was part of the diorama, the database just didn't catch it. My Blood Elf Demon Hunter made it in, and a Blizzard employee handed the figure to me after the closing ceremonies for a closer look.&nbs...

In 1994, Warcraft started with a simple premise: Orcs versus Humans. It was an age-old idea that built off the precepts from classic fantasy novels and tabletop games, and one that endured for decades into the zeitgeist MMO iteration that p...

While Blizzard is known for their tried and true support of their legacy games, even 14 years into some of them, there's a limit. By way of a forum post a Blizzard official has reminded folks that if you're gaming on Vista or XP machines, s...

You'd think that after playing World of Warcraft for nearly 13 years I'd be tired of it, but I'm still plugging away at the Legion expansion. I'd also happily give this NES demake a go, if it were real that is. YouTube channel Rkade Soup re...

Now that World of Warcraft's Legion expansion has two massive patches under its belt, I figured I'd check back in with Blizzard to see how things were going. On the outside this expansion, as a whole, is working out swimmingly compared to t...

Windows XP was the defacto operating system for a very long time. I remember immediately upgrading in 2001 and not really thinking about changing until I eventually tried out Windows 7 in 2010. The removal of MS-DOS was pretty big, but the ...

Donald Trump's Assistant to the President and Chief Strategist Steve Bannon has Mr. Magoo'd his way to a fortune over the years (he even stumbled into Seinfeld royalties before it was a hit). In the mid-2000s, insanely successful World of W...
