World of Warcraft Announcement Coming Tonight
Blizzard has sent word that it will be making a big announcement at 8pm tonight.

Details are extremely scarce, but it looks like the announcement will be accompanied by a video. It will also most likely be World of Warcraft-related. Another expansion? New weapons? A new race? 8pm tonight is when we'll know. Let the speculation begin in the Forum.

In related news, terrorists are now using World of Warcraft to train for real life attacks, apparently. Kevin Zuccato, head of the Australian High Tech Crime Centre in Canberra, reckons that terrorists can use games like WoW to train using weapons that are identical to their real-life counterparts. SPOnG wants to know when we're getting our magic sword.

He also reckons that terrorists can use virtual worlds to scout real life locations. SPOnG wants to go to the place that you can scout by wandering round Azeroth.

"We need to start thinking about living, working and protecting two worlds and two realities", he says.

You can find out more about World of Warcraft on SPOnG's dedicated game page.
