BY LUKE KARMALIWorld of Warcraft lost 2.9 million subscribers in the last quarter, bringing the number of active subs to 7.1 million as of the quarterly period ending March 31, 2015.
The news comes courtesy of Activision Blizzard's first quarter earnings report for 2015 and marks the biggest subscriber loss in a three month period since the game launched back in late 2004.

Despite this, the company notes revenue performance for the aging MMO has remained stable thanks to an increased number of people taking advantage of added-value services like cosmetic items and account services, along with price increases in select regions such as the East.
It's important to note that this subscriber drop also doesn't cover the period during which the new WoW Token was introduced, so the number of losses can't be attributed to the method in which people are choosing to get access to the game.

FIFA 15 kicks Destiny from top spot in UK Xtmmo news
Its the post-FIFA portion of the year on the Chart-Track UK sales charts. Historically this means well likely have EA Sports FIFA XX at the top until Activisions Call of Duty shows up, but theres always the possibility for Just Dance or a Zumba game to mess with that.
Anyway, FIFA 15 is out now and it accounted for 80 percent of all software sales and 87 percent of all revenue for the week. Chart-Track estimates if one were to align all the week-one FIFA sales for every platform (it was staggered last year), FIFA 15 unit sales would be flat year-over-year, with a 6 percent revenue increase. The Xbox One and PS4 versions account for 54 percent of unit sales.
The only new release last week to break the Top 40 is Fantasy Life, the Level-5 (Prof. Layton, Dark Cloud) RPG, which debuted in the eight spot. The UK top ten can be found after the break.
Top 10 UK Software Sales (All Formats); week ending September 27:
FIFA 15
Destiny
Disney Infinity 2.0
Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition
Call of Duty: Ghosts
Watch Dogs
The Sims 4

World Of Warcraft - Cracking Karazhan
Azeroth’s mightiest protectors have defeated a seemingly endless procession of memorable foes over the years, and while the legions of heroes have since
moved on to more pressing threats, those old foes from the past still brood in their lairs. There they sit, lording over their loot, agonizing over their
defeats, just waiting for a chance to unleash vengeance. And you can head back into their strongholds to put them back in their place.
We’d like to help those who have never given taking on an older raid a shot to feel more comfortable exploring the older content. Even if visiting and
looting these locales is old hat, you might still find something of value within. If you’ve never given it a try at all, there are actually plenty of good
reasons to visit older instances:
Lore - Running past raids and dungeons is a great way to catch up on lore and have experiences that you might otherwise have missed.
Transmogrification - Even if the gear itself doesn’t offer any power to a max-level character, set pieces and random drops from older raids can fill out
your wardrobe of Transmogrification items quite nicely.
Pets – A number of older bosses now have a chance to drop Battle Pets that you can collect or cage and sell.
Mounts - Many players dive into old raids specifically to pick up rare mounts, such as the much sought after Ashes of A’lar.
Tip: Keep in mind that some mounts, such as Mimiron’s head, will only drop from specific versions of an encounter or when certain conditions are fulfilled,
so be sure to read up and plan accordingly!
Reputations - Some players use old school raids as a way to bolster their list of Exalted reputations for achievement titles such as Exalted and Beloved.
Fun - Perhaps most importantly, it can be great fun to explore the environments that are featured in older content, or play up the fantasy of being the
lone adventurer exploring an enemy’s fortress, facing down hordes of bad guys, and standing against the odds to defeat a great evil. Often music and
environments are exclusive to certain Raids, and there’s nothing quite like experiencing the art in its original context. Going it alone can also allow you
to take your time and let you to take in the sights when that isn’t always possible if a group is waiting on you.
Going Solo
As a level 90 character, you should be able to beat most Raid encounters from classic through Wrath of the Lich King without breaking a sweat. If you’re
particularly well geared and have the right class tools at your disposal, even Cataclysm encounters might be possible. Gear, class abilities, and individual
skill all play a significant role in what you can actually handle. Please keep in mind that World of Warcraft isn’t balanced with soloing past raid content
in mind, so some classes might be better suited to the task than others. You might want to bring a friend along if a particular encounter is proving too much
for you to handle. That said, it can add to the fun and challenge to see what you can do on your own.
We’ve delved into other raids from the past, like Molten Core and the Black Temple. Now we prepare to make a house call on the early days of the Burning
Crusade. That’s right, next stop: Karazhan.
Positioned as the first raid in the newly released Burning Crusade expansion, Karazhan houses mystery upon mystery. Let us unlock the gate, pull open the
creaking doors, and explore the Last Guardian’s creepy abode.
Medivh’s Magnificent Mansion of Madness
Medivh, the Last Guardian, made his home in Deadwind Pass, in the bright tower of Karazhan. Though he was the greatest wizard of his day (and humanity's
intended custodian) Medivh was secretly possessed by the dark spirit of Sargeras, the Destroyer of Worlds. Through Medivh, Sargeras opened the Dark Portal
and allowed the orcs to wage war upon the kingdoms of Azeroth.
As the war progressed, Medivh fought against Sargeras' control. The raging conflict within him finally drove the wizard irrevocably insane, until his
childhood friend, Anduin Lothar, aided Medivh's young apprentice, Khadgar in storming Karazhan and slaying their former comrade. Since that day, a terrible
curse has pervaded both the tower and the lands around it - casting a dark pall over Deadwind Pass and the region that is now known as Duskwood.
In recent years, nobles of Darkshire ventured into Deadwind Pass to investigate the blight that had settled over the region. None who entered the dark tower
ever emerged.
Karazhan finally became accessible to intrepid explorers in Burning Crusade patch 2.0.3., way back in 2007 (yes, it’s been that long). Like the flavor text
says, to get to Karazhan, you’ll need to get to the Eastern Kingdoms and then travel to Deadwind Pass. Karazhan is festering in the southern reaches of the
zone, and unless you have Atiesh, you’ll have to fly or ride to get there, as there aren’t any flight points in the area.

FIFA 15, UFC paid Xbox One demos a 'system error,' says EA rep
Xbox One users sensed an apocalypse when they found the system's online store charging $5/£4 for demos of EA games FIFA 14 and EA Sports UFC this morning. However, according to an EA Australia representative, panic stations needn't be manned just yet as the listings are the result of a system error.
Destiny For PS3 representative told Polygon that the demos should reset to free within the next 24 hours. The representative also noted the error isn't on the PlayStation Network, and we've verified the demos remain free on PS4. When we approached an EA UK representative he wasn't able to offer official comment at the time of publication.
A system error isn't hard to believe considering prior to today the FIFA 14 demo had been free for more than half a year. Also, it's more than a bit odd for it be free on one system and paid on another. In any case, if for some mad reason you're thinking of purchasing one of the demos, wait it out and hopefully we'll get further word from EA soon. Also, if this is an error let's hope EA and Microsoft will be issuing out refunds.
Update: An EA UK representative confirmed to Joystiq the priced demos were "due to a technical error," which has now been corrected. We've confirmed both the UFC demo and FIFA 14 Ultimate Team Coins demo have been reverted to free.
