Zath’s Monster World of Warcraft Competition!
January 25, 2010
As a World of Warcraft player who is eagerly anticipating the upcoming WoW: Cataclysm expansion later in the year, I’ve recently got back into playing WoW by starting a new character and it got me thinking that it might be an idea to run a another competition for my fellow WoW players around the world and obviously anyone else who’d like to enter too!
With this in mind, I thought I’d try and make it worthwhile and rather than just give one prize away and there be just a single winner, I’ve put together a World of Warcraft prize pool (along with the help of SteelSeries and Starbucks) that means there’s 13 actual prizes up for grabs and having reviewed many of these items already, I’m happy that they’re worthy of such a competition!

September 26, 2009
SteelSeries recently announced that they will soon be releasing their first closed-type headset which will be the upgrade to one of their existing headset range, namely the SteelSeries Siberia V2 gaming headset. The original SteelSeries Siberia headset was a hit with gamers around the world and also achieved some notoriety in the music industry when used by musicians in several high profile music videos.
For this reason alone, I thought that their follow-up headset would be worth looking at, as well as being their first closed-type headset that SteelSeries have released, the Siberia V2 has some other notable features such as great sound quality, integrated control capabilities, an enhanced more comfortable design and better passive noise reduction technology.

You may have seen and entered our recent World of Warcraft Mouse competition which has been very popular, so thanks to everyone who entered that and I thought that you might be interested to know about another World of Warcraft competition that is currently being run by SteelSeries.
If you don’t already know, SteelSeries are the company who make a great range of pc gaming accessories, including a bunch of WoW-inspired items of which the aforementioned WoW mouse is just one item the winner will be receiving – just take a look at this prize list below!

Regular readers may have seen that we’ve liked the look of the World of Warcraft Mouse since we first heard about it and following that we then got the chance to test out this latest must-have hi-tech gadget for WoW players in our WoW Mouse review – go check out the review for yourself, but in short – here at Zath having played our fair share of WoW in the past and we really liked this mouse!
As with any popular new product, initial stocks can be quite limited making it tough to get hold off, however we’ve managed to secure one of these rather cool looking WoW mice to give away to one of our readers, courtesy of the gaming peripherals retailer, Game-1 here in the UK.

April 7, 2009
When I was given the opportunity to test two different World of Warcraft mouse pads, I’ll be honest with you and admit that I was a little sceptical as to why you would want one given most of us are using various ‘modern hi-tech’ optical mice (perhaps even the WoW Mouse) these days that are supposedly a great improvement on the old-fashioned ball mouse – which I used to associate with the requirement for mouse pads.
One of my main gripes with mouse pads was that historically most of them were usually quite small in terms of surface area and normally quite thick which meant you’d move the mouse and the whole mouse pad would end up moving around your desk as most had very little underside grip…however thankfully this is NOT the case with these modern World of Warcraft mouse pads or “gaming mouse surfaces” as the professionals might call them!

Up until the last couple of months, I’d been playing World of Warcraft (WoW) for around 18 months, so by that point, it is quite easy to get yourself very immersed into the the concepts, phrases and overall language of this massive online game.
World of Warcraft Comic Review
February 18, 2009
I’ve recently read through the first official World of Warcraft comic book and as someone who hasn’t regularly read comic books for around 20 years, I thought I’d give you a review of what I thought in that context.
I’ve been playing World of Warcraft for around 18 months now and as good as the game is to play (as an MMO game), I’m someone who also likes to pay attention to some of the story elements that are going on in the game – yes I’m one of those who actually goes around trying to read what the quest givers are saying in the hope that they may tie together t form a good story.

I’ve been looking forward to getting the chance to play with the World of Warcraft mouse and review it since we first previewed it a few months ago and now here is our review of this custom gaming mouse.
Initially what struck me most of all about this World of Warcraft mouse was the box that it comes in being in the shape and action of a treasure chest – yes not only looks like a chest with the mouse shown in the centre of it, but it also opens up in a similar manner with the top being hinged and upon opening you see the mouse is shown in the middle of gold and jewels – very World of Warcraft-like!
Once I’d got into the box properly, I was rather surprised with what I found, although it did take a little bit of figuring out as I didn’t want to damage this novel packaging – good job that I wasn’t recording an unboxing video of it!

Do you need more focus sometimes? Then maybe you need to stock up on some Mana Potion Energy Drinks!
Anybody who is familiar with any kind of fantasy role-playing game such as World of Warcraft will instantly know about mana potions and recognise what I’m talking about here! So there’s a potential customer base just there of over 11 million people!

January 12, 2009
One of the great things about World of Warcraft is the fact that Blizzard are always developing this immensely popular game even further to make it a better gaming experience, however I’m not entirely sure about this one!
Clearly the news reporter in question has chosen to use Blizzard’s newly introduced ranged attack called the “shoe attack”
