Any World of Warcraft fans out there?

/ducks for cover as a billion trillion voices all cry out at once.

Thought so. Well you won’t want to miss our WOW TBC coverage on the Atomic site. We have a Podcast! We have a bloody massive 7 page feature!

And if you don’t give a toss about WoW – we have a review of Medieval II – which we love to bits.

We have a Gears of War review! The coolest 360 game ever!

We have a comprehensive tech report on the Nvidia 8800 series and the new 960 series motherboards!

It’s insane! Luckily we’ve recently upgraded the Atomic server to handle the billions of good reasons to visit the Atomic site.

Have a tremendous weekend!
