Earlier this month, NCSoft announced that Carbine will be shutting down. For those who aren’t familiar, Carbine is the developer behind MMORPG WildStar, and was put together by former Blizzard employees. The shutting down of Carbine also meant that this marked the end of WildStar, but we did not have a date until now.

In a post on WildStar’s website, the developers have confirmed that the game will be shutting down for good come November 28, 2018. Gamers can also expect to be refunded their purchases that were made after the 1st of July, although with the game shutting down in the next couple of months, it probably doesn’t make sense for you to invest anymore into it.

To help wrap things up and allow players to experience the game in all of its glory one last time, Carbine announced that they will be “increasing the rotational speed of the planet Nexus (not really) to fast forward “ the time in the game so that players will be able to take part and enjoy some of the seasonal in-game events.

The developers also add, “We are truly grateful for the vibrant community that grew around WildStar, and for all of your support throughout the life of this game. Our hope is that in these last couple months we can all celebrate the great adventures you’ve had on Planet Nexus—and have some fun along the way.”

“Again, a most heartfelt thank you goes out from all of us to you for sharing this wild, intergalactic ride with us, and to helping make WildStar an experience that truly could not have been possible without you. Thank you.”

Google the company may have been incorporated on September 4th, 1998 but the company likes to celebrate its birthday on September 27th. It has done just that over the past decade. It’s September 27th today which means that Google is now 20 years old. To celebrate the milestone, it has put together a Street View virtual tour of the first garage office of the company that was set up back in 1998.

This garage is where the internet search giant was founded. One has to be astounded by the sheer ground it has covered and with it has become in just 20 years. Google was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin inside Susan Wojcicki’s Menlo Park garage. That’s where the first office of the company was.

The Street View virtual tour has been meticulously put together to recreate just how it looked back in 1998. More Google memorabilia can be found once the secret door is opened and the neon light is turned on. Like many tech giants of Silicon Valley, Google to had humble beginnings.

The virtual tour allows us to get a glimpse of the early moments of the company that we now rely on for so much today. It would have been hard to imagine 20 years ago that Google would become the behemoth that it is today but it is what it is now and it’s not going away anytime soon.
