We have a combination of regular weekly games and new surprises, so you'll find a variety of games to take a look at. During Livestream events, you can participate in the live chat to learn about the game, ask questions, and spend some time with Massively staff and readers. (Of course, Livestream events are subject to the whims of outside forces like server-side gremlins once in a while.) Follow along after the jump to see what's scheduled for this week!

| The Daily Grind: What was your longest single play session? Posted: 04 Jul 2011 06:00 AM PDT Filed under: Culture, Opinion, The Daily Grind, Humor, Miscellaneous  Sometimes they're sessions in which the stars align perfectly and you just seem to be getting good drops left and right. Sometimes the session is just a great party that's steamrolling difficult content. And sometimes the session is a real match of wits, you against the game, and you are determined to keep hammering at it until it gives you what you want. So what was your longest marathon session like? What got you into it, and what was the most memorable part?  Every morning, the Massively bloggers probe the minds of their readers with deep, thought-provoking questions about that most serious of topics: massively online gaming. We crave your opinions, so grab your caffeinated beverage of choice and chime in on today's Daily Grind!

| Posted: 03 Jul 2011 06:00 PM PDT Filed under: Massively meta, Week in Review, Miscellaneous  We knew Age of Conan's free-to-play conversion was coming; we just didn't know when. This week, Funcom saw fit to surprise everyone by pulling down the servers and launching AoC: Unchained. The short notice even took our veteran AoC expert by surprise, but fortunately, he works (and plays) well without sleep. AoC: Unchained delivers more than just a free-to-play option for players; it also includes a new cosmetic system, new dungeons, and casual-friendly gameplay tweaks. Join us past the break for a glimpse into this week's other top MMO stories! Continue reading Week in Review: Unchained

| EVE Evolved: EVE's Alliance Tournament IX Posted: 03 Jul 2011 04:00 PM PDT Filed under: Sci-fi, Video, EVE Online, Culture, Events, in-game, Guilds, PvP, Endgame, EVE Evolved  This year's tournament winners walked away with a first place prize of 120 billion ISK and 50 blueprint runs for a unique Amarr heavy assault cruiser called the Vangel. The second place prize of 50 billion ISK was also accompanied by 50 blueprint runs for a unique Amarr assault ship called the Malice. Both ships are significantly better than their standard counterparts, but with only 50 ever to be introduced in the game, they're sure to become priceless collector's items. The third and fourth place winners received 20 billion ISK each as a consolation prize for coming so far in EVE's number one PvP tournament. In this week's EVE Evolved, I look at the meta-game surrounding the tournament and collect together links to videos and commentary on all the main matches in Alliance Tournament IX.

| Rise and Shiny recap: Order and Chaos Online Posted: 03 Jul 2011 12:00 PM PDT Filed under: Fantasy, Screenshots, Video, Previews, Opinion, Mobile, Hands-on, Humor, Massively Hands-on, Rise and Shiny  Gameloft's games generally work, as well. Its shooters might be slightly on rails, and its RPGs might be pretty linear, but all of its attempts at hitting the mark add up to a lot of profit and a lot of successful shots. The company has more good games than bad. Anyway, if the major publishers aren't going to take the time to make a decent mobile port or morph of their best titles, Gameloft has shown that it is more than willing to. I generally like that. Not surprisingly, the company did a fantastic job of making a portable, enjoyable World of Warcraft with Order and Chaos Online. Click past the cut and I'll tell you what I thought about it.
