Shall I Compare Thee To Another Launch? (LOTRO, EQ2, and WOW Launch Expansions)
There’s no rest for the wicked, or for intrepid start up companies. When the start up company is wicked AWESOME, forget turkey-induced comas – GamerDNA is on the job. I hope all of our readers in the USA had a good feast. For the rest of the world, today is just another day, and we’re not serving up leftovers – here’s your fresh Trends column.
November 24th Release Notes
Hi everyone. Sorry for the delay in the notes. With the database craziness and everything yesterday I didn’t have a chance to really iron these out. So here we go… all the changes from Monday.
This was mainly an infrastructure week. We moved a lot around on the back end, both in our main environment that you all use and in our development environment. But we did get some pretty cool new features and tweaks in. Check them out.

WOW, What a Week
2.8 million box sales in one day. I guess that means Wrath of the Lich King did pretty well. Of course, the only other team crunching harder than Blizzard is your own GamerDNA team, so our cross game comparison is going to have to wait one more week. So let’s take a look at the basic numbers we’re seeing for the World of Warcraft expansion, and throw in a little GamerDNA flavor.
Reminder – Razer Contest Ends Next Week!
Hey guys! Just a reminder – gamerDNA is giving away a whole bunch of Razer gaming hardware to any players deep in the throes of Wrath of the Litch King – check out the original post here.
