If you're looking for some new shirts, J!NX has you covered. The clothing site is currently hosting a Super Colossal Sale in which all tees are $7 off for 72 hours. The sale ends on Sept. 30 at 11:59 p.m., so act fast if you want a deal on some gaming apparel.

If you've never shopped at J!NX, they have collections of shirts from World of Warcraft, StarCraft II, EVE Online and Aion. Let us know what you purchase in the comments below!

This is your last chance to possibly earn yourself two tickets to the always uber-hyped BlizzCon! This sweepstakes, hosted by SteelSeries, J!NX, BradyGames and Cryptozoic Entertainment, is only lasting until October 2, and some of those prizes are definitely drool-worthy. Of course, everyone's going to be gunning for that Grand Prize round trip to BlizzCon for two, two nights of hotel accomodations (for two), BlizzCon tickets for two and $300 spending money, but the first, second and third prizes, all of which involve some hefty gaming swag, should be encouragement enough for you to enter.

Either way, the sweepstakes are ending in a mere four days, so if you wanted to get in on this, now's your chance!

UPDATE: Zarhym addressed the portal removal in the official forums. It looks like class trainers and Auctioneers will be added in Dalaran and Shattrath! You can read the post after the jump.

According to a news post by WoW Insider, it seems as though the portals in Dalaran and Shattrath that lead to the major cities in Azeroth have been replaced by class trainers in the Cataclysm beta. In other words, if you want to pop between Ironforge, Stormwind and Darnassus (just kidding, who goes to Darnassus) quickly, you're going to need to find an alternate route. Obviously, with the entire remake of Azeroth come Cataclysm, it seems as though Blizzard really wants to usher their playerbase back into their home land, so it makes sense to take away some of the comforts that made Dalaran and Shattrath such fantastic home cities.

They do note, however, that with Cataclysm will come some more convenient methods of travel, like Deepholm (a new zone) having portals to Stormwind and Ogrimmar, and vice versa. We'll just have to wait and see what comes next in Cataclysm!

Two weeks ago we featured a blog by our very own user Hyolith.  Recently he contacted us with some pretty exciting news: he's hosting a contest for the posters of ZAM and fans alike! Keep reading for the details, and go to the thread in the WoW general forum to add your comments!

The current template for Land of Orcs doesn't do the name any justice. This is why I would like to present you with a chance to earn a 3-month premium subscription to ZAM and a 30-day World of Warcraft Digital Game Card through the Blizzard Store. This will give Land of Orcs a unique template that won't be like anyone else.

Alright, let me start off by saying that this news post is going to be filled with nothing but rumors. Over the weekend, Amazon posted that the release date for Cataclysm is Nov. 23. The page was quickly updated to remove the date. Now Boubouille over at MMO-Champion is saying he received an "update" that the expansion has been pushed back to early December (either Dec. 7 or Dec. 14) from his earlier prediction of Nov. 2.

Just to remind you, those dates are rumors and nothing more. So now it's time to ask you a question, ZAM readers. When do you think Cataclysm will launch? November? December? Will we see it this year? BlizzCon is less than a month away, so we should get some concrete details from Blizzard soon enough.

Blizzard just posted an in-depth preview of New Tinkertown, the new starting zone for gnomes in Cataclysm! The article gives players a good idea of what their new gnomes will experience as they level from 1-5, and it all focuses on the fight for Gnomeregan.

You can read the entire preview after the jump. Just to give you fair warning, it does contain some minor spoilers, although I doubt they will ruin the zone for you. Will you be creating a gnome to check out their new starting experience? FOR GNOMEREGAN!

The following story was contributed by Zam user Poldaran.  If you or anyone you know is interested in writing and would like to share a story you wrote please send me (Xsarus) a pm.  Also drop by our WoW general forum and check out the story thread, we'd love to hear from you.

Another shadowbolt whizzed by her head, narrowly missing her ear and severing a few strands of her shoulder length black hair. "Is that all you've got?!" Sindara of Wintermoon shouted in defiance. "There are a half dozen of you, and not one of you has managed to even hit me. I suspect that your masters have just sent their most pathetic students out just to be rid of the lot of you!"

Under normal circumstances, taunting that many foes would have been unwise, but since Sindara was already past the point of no return, she figured there was nothing to lose. If their anger surged enough to make them sloppy, then it would in fact be a great gain to her. She only had to survive long enough for assistance to arrive. Since she had tricked them into following her into a park in the floating city of Dalaran, it would thankfully take little time before someone responded.

"We'll kill you, Oathbreaker!" One of the gnomes called out. "You'll pay for violating our code!"

All you iPhone/iPod Touch users out there just got another reason to download the World of Warcraft Mobile Armory. Blizzard just released version 2.1.0 for the application, and perhaps the most noteworthy addition is the new 3D model viewer that is similar to the Web version of the Armory.

Also, a character's in-game activity is now captured in an activity feed and professions are now displayed on character profiles. Oh, and item icons now have colored borders indicating their rarity.

These updates are certainly nice additions to the Mobile Armory, and let's not forget that Blizzard will be adding guild chat functionality to the app in the future. Do you have the Mobile Armory on your phone?

It could happen to you. It could happen to your guildmates. Everyone has heard the horror stories about a WoW account being compromised. Your password doesn't work. Your gold is gone. Your items have vanished. What do you do? Well, now you head straight to Blizzard's new Account Recovery page from a secure computer and hopefully solve the problem without the need to call the Billing and Account Services department!

So how does it work? If your account has been hacked, head over to the Account Recovery page, answer some questions only you should know the answer to, and Blizzard with automatically reset your password via e-mail and submit a ticket to start an investigation. Hopefully, this will drastically speed up the process of restoring your account to its former glory.

So, what are your thoughts on this new system? Also, do you have an authenticator to protect your account?

Perhaps everyone saw this coming, given Blizzard's partnership with PopCap games, but it's impressive nonetheless that the mega-popular casual game, Plants vs. Zombies, has made its way into the World of Warcraft Cataclysm Beta. The quest and game takes place in Hillsbrad Foothills and appears to be aimed (experience reward-wise) towards players around level 20, but it's doubtful that only level 20s will be whiling away many an hour in this well designed game.

World of Warcraft Podcaster "TotalHalibut" has released a video on YouTube detailing the entire mini-game questline, and while the actual quest in itself doesn't appear to be too difficult, fans of Plants vs. Zombies will have a great time working on those achievements on endless mode, like trying to survive 100 waves of Ghouls.

All in all, the game looks to be quite well designed, even in adapting to the World of Warcraft engine, and this may signal the possibility of more casual PopCap games making their way into World of Warcraft.
