| General: Gamer Safety Alliance Plays Host to Gamer Safety Week Posted: 10 Feb 2014 06:13 AM PST This week marks the beginning of Gamer Safety Week hosted by Merchant Risk Council's (MRC) sister organization, Gamer Safety Alliance.

| Elder Scrolls Online: An Alternate Opinion Posted: 09 Feb 2014 12:32 PM PST Our own Bill Murphy has a list of the good and bad from our recent preview weekend, and I'd encourage you to check it out. But, like a doctor judging a problematic patient, he's also asked me to chime in with a second opinion. While we agree on a several areas about what makes ESO a blast to play, I'm a little concerned about some of the game's more vital organs.   |

| General: Pillars of Eternity will Slip Past First Half 2014 Release Posted: 09 Feb 2014 12:09 PM PST According to a new interview at Eurogamer, Obsidian Entertainment's Pillars of Eternity will not make the "first half 2014" release date predicted on its Kickstarter crowd sourcing page.

| World of Warcraft: Free-to-Play Fatigue: Are Micro-transactions Losing Their Appeal? Posted: 08 Feb 2014 03:32 PM PST This week, Blizzard announced that its subscription base for World of Warcraft rose by more than 100,000. Since all logic says that a near-decade-old MMO should be tailing off, that's something of a surprise--especially since game industry augurs have spent the last year or so predicting the death of subscription-based games. Is the turnaround just a fluke, or could it mean gamers aren't as gung-ho about free-to-play as business analysts say they are?   |
