a morning of discoveries

woke up this morning and just checked the news feeds on my flock (as i do). This led me to 3 things worth mentioning.

1. Guild Wiki is now offically a GW website - not just a fan site. I will change the link. The front page is different thats all. find it here. I imagine this will lead to a higher acuracy of information! It's still a wiki - anyone can post.

2. PC PowerPlay (the magazine) will have articles on guild wars in its next issue, and the issue after that will come with an exclusive pet. The Asura minature.

3. ArenaNet have anounced a true expansion Guild Wars: Eye of the North. That will be coming out for the American summer holidays (so probably sometime between May and June??). By true expansion, you need to have another GW for it to work. It opens up 18 large multi-level dungeons, 10 new heroes (wow! i guess 1 per class), 15 new skills per class (not sure if they are elite or not), 4 new armor styles per class, and heaps of new weapons etc!
They also announced that they are developing Guild Wars 2. They said Beta testing will be late 2008, so it will probably be released in 2009. I reckon there might be another expansion or 2 for GW1 before that. They didnt expand on it, but said that some of the things you can do in Eye of the North will carry over to GW2. I've pretty much sumarised it, but check out the press release here.
