A teaser for the World of Warcraft movie was shown off at Comic-Con not too long ago, and last we heard there was a good chance that the movie could begin filming in 2014. The good news for those looking forward to the movie, recent reports have surfaced suggesting that the movie could begin filming on the 13^th of January 2014 with the final product seeing a possible release in 2015. This is thanks to a tweet by a film production tracking database, Production Weekly, in which they claim that Legendary Studios has begun setting up shop in Vancouver, Canada, and is set to begin filming in January 2014.

At the moment not much is known about the movie, or what the story will be about. There are many popular storylines in the Warcraft universe, but seeing them recapped could be boring and Blizzard has stated in the past that one of the reasons the movie has taken so long is because they wanted something fresh for the fans. Duncan Jones will be directing the movie with Charles Leavitt writing the script, but at this point in time there has been no word on casting. In any case it looks like there’s still a fair amount of time to wait before we will see the movie, but are you guys excited? Who would you like to see star in the upcoming movie?

Gamers, if you have enjoyed BioWare’s Baldur’s Gate franchise, you might have heard that Beamdog has decided to rejuvenate the franchise with their “Enhanced Edition” copies. If you’ve already gone through the first title, Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition, you might be pleased that despite Beamdog running into some legal issues and being forced to remove the game from their respective App Stores, Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition is back on track and is currently up for pre-purchase via Beamdog’s website for $24.95 for the PC/Mac version.

The game is expected to see a release on the 15^th of November and a new gameplay trailer has since been released (video above). The game, similar to its predecessor, will feature updated graphics and will also introduce new quests. Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition will also see the addition of four new characters and their respective quests, although for those planning on playing the game on their iPad or Android tablet will need to download those characters as a paid DLC. However because of this, Beamdog will charge iPad/Android users less due to the additional fees that will have to pay.

Back when Nintendo announced that they would be cutting the prices of the Nintendo 3DS, they launched an Ambassador Program which basically placated early adopters of the 3DS who bought the console at its original price. Now with the Nintendo Wii U about to get a price cut of its own, we’re sure many are wondering if early adopters of the Wii U would be entitled to a similar Ambassador Program of their own as well. Unfortunately for Wii U owners, it does not look like this will be the case. Nintendo fan site Wii U Daily wrote to Nintendo to ask if such a program would be taking place, and the simple answer was no, or at the very least there are no plans for such a program at the moment.

According to the email, “Thank you for taking the time to write with your questions regarding a Wii U Ambassador program. The Ambassador program is only available to any Nintendo 3DS owner who purchased their system before August 12, 2011 and there are no plans for a similar program for Wii U.” This was later confirmed by Nintendo America’s Reggie Fils-Aime when Kotaku reached out to him for confirmation of the email. What do you guys think? Is Nintendo being unfair to early adopters of the Wii U? Or do early adopters of the Wii U not too fussed about it?
