Only Because We Need a Different WOW Disease

World of Warcraft, I can undoubtably say, is the most successful MMO out there. So it isn't much of a suprise that Joystiq is now running a WoW website, WOWInsider.
Three things are currently on the front page that caught my eye. First, they have a video podcast. I haven't watched it yet, but may do so in the near future.
Then there's a WoW pen and paper RPG being put out by Whitewolf. Unfortunatly, it is one of the millions of RPGs that run the D20 system (I am a fan of 3/3.5 Edition D&D, but I want a little variety in playing other RPGs).
Then there's a problem that seemed to have plagued (no pun intended) WoW since its inception. It seems like there are too many people with too many characters, and it is flooding the servers. They request that Blizzard do something to stem the amount of characters that are in the WoW world.

On other, related news, Yahoo (here: http://videogames.yahoo.com/ongoingfeature?eid=423726&page=0) put up an article on why Sony is changing Star Wars Galaxies. From what I have heard of, most of the changes aren't for the best, and the hardcore players are not happy. If it wasn't for the refund offer for those who bought the recent expansion pack (here: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/starwarsgalaxiesstarterkit/news.html?sid=6139705

), I would have given them the Worst Persons award. However, they are still left with alot of angery fans who are still irate over the direction that the game is going.
