MMORPG | Guild Wars 2 preview extravaganza

Posted 12/10/11 by

Our friends over at MMORPG.com just published not one, not two, but three(!) preview articles about Guild Wars 2. Part one focuses on the PvP, part 2 takes a look at how the PvE is coming along, and the final part is an editorial about the game in general looking forward, especially in relation to Guild Wars 1.

But as I was merrily trouncing through the fields my time ran short, and I was ushered away from my noble lady and back into the waking world. Filled with only myself and my disappointment that I am in fact not a pretty girl. Now was the time to reflect.

Bitgamer | Interview with Colin Johanson

Posted 27/09/11 by

Also the fellows over at Bitgamer were able to snag Colin Johanson for some face time at Eurogamer Expo. It is a lengthy interview with some new information. For instance, there may be even more Guild Wars novels in the future, after the current trilogy is concluded with “Sea of Sorrows”.

BG: Are you going to carry on with the novelisations?

CJ: We have two out already, and a third being written by one of our in-house writers that’s coming out in the near future. The first book – Ghosts of Ascalon – was nominated for the award for the best fantasy novel of the year, so it’s certainly something we’ve had a really good response to so far and will continue to build on in the future.

Posted 27/09/11 by

After giving Guild Wars 2 their Editors’ Game of the Show Award, Eurogamer follows up with an article on their impressions of the GW2 demos and an interview with Colin Johanson about PvP and more.

GW2 awarded the Eurogamer Game of the Show Award

Posted 26/09/11 by

Eurogamer.net just announced that Guild Wars 2, among 10 worthy nominees, was selected for the Eurogamer Expo 2011 Editor’s Game of the Show Award. Congratulations!

This is what online worlds were always supposed to aim for, and in its showings to date, ArenaNet has yet to put a foot wrong on its ambitious path. Other games at Eurogamer Expo 2011 showed perfections of gaming’s present; Guild Wars 2 was the one to open a window to its future.
