Enter at Your Own Rift: Rift evolution
RIFT has seen a great deal of new content and features over the past year, and each update tends to generate a lot of buzz about things like new raid zones, new warzones, world events, and yes, even fishing. But there have been quite a few subtle (and not so subtle) changes to the core of the ...
Get your lootables and chatables on with Trion's new RIFT iOS app
With little fanfare, Trion Worlds has released an iPhone mobile app this past weekend for RIFT that should make staying in touch with guildies and in-game events far easier for the on-the-go set. The app is called RIFT Mobile and is currently available for the low, low price of "free." The app ...
Enter at Your Own Rift: The casual revolution in RIFT

Champions Online tells players what not to expect

Touring the Zone Events of CoX
Now that City of Heroes/Villains players have automated Zone Alerts to tell them when a given zone event is going down, we thought it would be fun to hit the streets and document some of them for you. We got in a little over our heads at times, but everyone survived, just about. There's a lot more ...
