Chinese online games copmany NetEase is rumored to be breaking into the market overseas with a new game - Starcraft Online. The game is rumored to have been developed by the WoW Blizzard team. Blizzard has not confirmed or denied this rumor at this point, although it has advertised for staff for a new MMO. Stay tuned, rumor mill for now.

Vivendi Games, Blizzard's publisher for World Of Warcraft, has shows a profit of over 1 billion for its Europe division. This is due in no small part to the ridiculous success of WoW, and it just keeps on growing!

From the people we have not heard from in a long time, we bring you a Darkfall Q&A. The interview with the developers has two parts, and gives a sugbstantial update on the game. Check it out.

From Mythic:

- (Hibernia) The quest ‘Beginning of War’ is an old starter quest that is no longer offered. Because of conflicts that could arise by players that still have the quest pending in their journal when they attempt to complete this quest, the quest has been shortened. Characters on steps 14 through 18 can check their journal to see the new simpler goal and how to receive their reward.

Well, it is official folks, World of Warcrack has surpassed 10 million subscribers. This is a truly awesome feat, as the WoW subscriber base now represents about .2% of the world's population. We call that impressive.

From Blizzard:

It was one year ago, today, that the blood elves and draenei joined the armies of Azeroth, and the Dark Portal was opened to the beautiful and terrifying vistas of Outland. On January 16, 2007, The Burning Crusade was released and sold almost 2.4 million copies worldwide in its first 24 hours of release, winning multiple awards from industry representatives. Since that time, World of Warcraft has reached the epic milestone of 9 million subscribers worldwide, and players have discovered the might of the Burning Legion, fought against the allies of Illidan in Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep, and even faced down the Betrayer himself in the Black Temple.

The latest installment of The Matrix Online Image Retrieval is posted over at the official website. A rather bland image this time we think, but you decide.
