July, 2009
It's game on, in this month's Atomic, as we uncover just why World of Warcraft is the runaway winner in the field of MMOs in an in-depth special feature. There have been some great massively multiplayer games released over the last couple of years - and some stinkers - but what holds them back, and what is WoW doing to stay on top. We find out.
Then, we tell you all about the secrets of... The Grind! That sometimes evil, often slow process of getting your character through the levels and up to the meaty end-game content as soon as possible. With our guide - to all games, not just WoW - you'll be hitting the cap in no time flat.
But don't worry - we're still packed to the gills with tech! We've got a heatsink & fan combo Head2Head this month, so those looking for extreme cooling for any chip will definitely want to pick this one up. Our standalone reviews are packed with new mobos and video cards, and whole raft of mice and controllers. It's peripheral central!
Plus reviews of inFamous, Damnation, the new Star Trek blu-ray set... we got your fun covered too.
All in this month's sexy issue.
