I’m pretty sure everyone who gets involved in online gaming communities will know who Leeroy Jenkins is.  A Warcraft character made famous by a video released on Youtube, Leeroy famously destroyed his Guild’s raid plans for the evening by rushing head first into room full of mobs, wiping the raid (and as a former raid leader, I can tell you that people do this stupid shit all the time, but not quite as spectacularly!).

• Some reviews
• Posting regular funny stuff (my own / Youtube videos / forum and blog posts)
• Guides to some games (cheats and stuff)
• Anything else that takes my fancy.

Cheers

Yes, back to the 10 hour gaming sessions to grind your stupid little avatar up a few more pointless levels, because Blizzard have just announced that the 2nd expansion to the MMO World of Warcraft is coming!

The Wrath of the Lich King will allow adventurers to explore the new zones of “Northrend” while they level their characters to a new cap of level 80.  Other new features include:

• New “hero” class - Death Knight
• New profession - “Inscription” - allows you to augment your spell powers
• New dungeons
• New character customisations including new hairstyles and dancing (God save us - Youtube will crash as it is swamped with more lame videos!)

No release date is set yet, but you can keep an eye on the micro site for more information. Read the rest…
