I was clicking round the mmorpg.com forums this afternoon, when i stumbled over this thread in the SWG section.
It starts with someone reposting an entry from Jeff Freeman’s Blog. Jeff was a developer at SOE and had a hand in the game destroying changes that were the NGE (although i don’t blame him for that).

Snyder the cheeky little scamp, also actually snuck the shot of Rorshach into the 300 trailer itself! Take a look below, and stop the trailer at 3:38… freakin sweet!

Blizzard announced a new milestone in the population of Azeroth yesterday, as the number of subscribers (that’s people who have bought and are playing the game, and excludes trial accounts), hits 8.5 million… Let’s put that into some perspective…
£8.99 x 8,500,000 users = £76,415,000 GBP a month!
Thats around £2,547,166.67 a day…
Or £106,131.94 an hour…
Or £1,768.86 a second…
£76,415,000 x 12 months = £916,980,000 GBP per year (that’s around $1,769,046,240.68 USD, or 1,347,044,320.36 EUROS).

A whole 7mins 31secs of Spiderman 3 in HD, including some spoilerish bits! One of the things it also shows is that close up of Vemon that was at the end of the last trail, but in nice High Def Quality (click the thumbnails below for a bigger version)!

Well, I’m writing this post as the Lunar Eclipse is reaching totality outside… sadly my camera batteries have just decided they don’t wanna take anymore pictures, so I’ll just post a few and see what else I can post at a later date.
Each photo has about a 5-7 minute delay between them.
