Minecraft, MMO Guild Poll, NFS: Shift 2 Challenge, Dead Island Fixes & More
WSGF Minecraft Server
The WSGF recently launched a Minecraft server for members. We are relaunching the server with the coming 1.8 release. Get all the details in this forum thread, and sign up to be white-listed for the server.
WSGF MMO Guild
A long time ago we created a Guild Wars guild, though it hasn't been active in ages. At that time GW was the only major FTP MMO out there, and it offered a single "international" server. Since then a number of major MMO's have gone FTP, which means the barrier to entry for a community guild is much lower. We've got a poll going to see what guild most people would like to join.
Skid's Need For Speed: Shift 2 Challenge
WSGF Editor "Skid" wants to put together a 4k resolution video for YouTube featuring NFS:S2 in Eyefinity. To do that, he's put together a racing challenge for the community. The WSGF is sponsoring the event, and will award a copy of Driver: San Francisco to the winner. If you don't yet have the game, it's on sale through the weekend at Steam for 50% off.

Dead Island
Dead Island was the big release over the last couple of weeks. While not living up to many people's expectations, and launching with a host of PC-only bugs, the developer has committed to making things right for PC users. There has been a lot of activity around Dead Island at the WSGF. Check it all out here:
