Guild Wars Nightfall Impressions -
The story missions will each take between 40 minutes
and a couple of hours to complete in theory and will pose a challenge to both beginners and veterans of the game. The level cap won't be increased, so if you're already sporting a level-20 avatar, you'll be pleased to know there will still be plenty to keep you occupied.
The Witcher Preview -
GameSpot has been updated
with a new The Witcher preview, offering impressions of the demonstration at last week's GC: "The first mixture that we saw was a night-vision potion, which turned the entire screen black and white but highlighted living things in color--more like thermal vision. The second was alcohol, which blurred the screen and did a disturbingly good job of making us feel like we had double vision for a time. Alcohol will adversely affect your abilities in combat, but after drinking it you'll find that your improved social skills let you get more information from characters that you're talking to in a bar, for example."
Dark Messiah Beta Live -
GameSpot announced that their paid subscribers now have the chance to join
the (closed) open beta for Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. The first 5,000 subscribers who register will get a code to activate the beta via Steam. There is no word on when the beta will open up to more people.

Sim City coming to DS -
Sim City DS is based on the PC Sim City 3000
. This isn't just a port, though, as the game features full stylus-based controls, mini games and a new adviser character who helps you out when designing your city. The DS title includes three main modes of play: Build a New City, Save the City and Sister City. In Build a New City, you start a city from scratch. Save the City mode puts you in a city located somewhere in Japan and has you clear missions involving fixing traffic and other problems. The Sisters City mode lets you chat with other players and trade "landmarks."
Blizzard: Consoles Can't Handle WOW, PC Gaming Better, Xbox Live Will Win -
Roughly six million addicts (cough..)... subscribers and Chinese Coke ads should be reason enough to bring World of Warcraft to the consoles. Yet, the game's developer, Blizzard, remains hesitant.
In short: Sams thinks console gaming isn't where it's at
. And who's to say he's wrong? Blizzard has been incredibly successful by sticking with the PC, a platform that ultimate gives the company more freedom, control and, well, money. But, what does he think about console gaming's online service?

If Crysis was for DX10 I would understand it... but... nah - they are just cranky.
Same goes for WoW, they are rather more afraid to loose the "HARDCORE!1111"-status of their game frenschie if they also sported it for the consoles.
As for hardware requirments; My God of War, I could play WoW on my freakin stationary work computer which has a integrated GPU and a CPU made for breaking at 12 tabs in Opera.
And for keyboards and alike; It's no secret that the next gen consoles have support for it - even the Ps2 had keyboard and mouse support!
