Knight Age: Review

Knight Age is a new game from JoyMax that sports cute graphics and more. We've put Knight Age through the wringer to find out how it measures up to today's MMOs.

Knight Age is an Asian style Free-to-Play MMO presented by JoyMax to the North American market. Its main feature is mounted combat which is the raison d'être for its name, Knight Age. Players familiar with MMOs from the Far East will be familiar with all the little details that almost all of them have, such as the gift boxes that appear in your inventory for certain achievements. This actually is a nice little feature, courtesy of the gift giving culture of the region.

	Guild Wars 2: Colin Johanson on the Live Teams & the Future

Last week, ArenaNet announced that there would not be just one Guild Wars 2 Live Team to keep the world fresh and functioning. We were told that there would be SIX (or more as needed)! We caught up with Colin Johanson to talk about the Live Teams and how they will function and what they will bring to Guild Wars 2.

The initial features we're ready to talk about can all now be found on Jonathan's blog post on our main GW2 website. Some of the big features include paid tournaments where players can earn entry into more competitive matches, and custom arenas where teams can practice, setup their own PvP rules, and host their own tournaments. Overall, we've looked at the timelines that other major games have taken to get all their big competitive features up and running, and most of them are 6+ months to a year after launch until they are fully featured. We want to get the core backbone out faster than that so our competitive players can start proving who is the best, and then continue to add features that improve on that experience going forward. You'll see us rolling out features and news soon to support this very important community.
