Horde House
Howdy ya'll and welcome to The Best Little Horde House in Azeroth. Internet radio & podcasting veterans Rob Roberts and Xtofer, and their wine loving friend Grandpa bring you a weekly dose of Azeroth news and updates from an honest yet sometimes sassy perspective. Join us for our antics each week as we invite special guests to pull up a chair with us and poke a little fun at one of our past times.
On this special episode of Horde House, we break our usual format to take the show back to basics. We recognize we have some people that listen to the show who might not really “get” what WoW is all about. We might also have some newer listeners who want to hear some more basic information about how we got into the game and why we play the game. We talk about all this and more including classes, professions and endgame (Click More... for more)
Yes indeed it is EPISODE 100 of our show! Big thanks to all of our listeners for supporting our shenanigans, explicitness and randomness for the past couple years!
There is really a lot of news to cover this week, as Blizzard announces a spinoff game: Hearthstone- Heroes of Warcraft. Also, patch 5.3 has ALREADY hit the PTR, and not only will it bring some PVE changes, but PVP is about to get some major changes. We will see if the fan base finds them to be GOOOOOOOLD.

THEY TOOK OUR FLIGHTPOINTS! Okay maybe not totally, but it is a little weird that this unintended feature took months to remove hmmm? Our hosts tonight explore why this might have happened and what good (and bad) may come of it– along with our live chatters! Also in the news, some breakdown on the satchel rewards, or Failbag 2.0′s. Does this make the rewards seem a little less fail to our hosts? (Click More... for more)
The first LFR has opened up, and it elicits a strong reaction from some of our hosts. You might be in for a shock on tonight’s episode of Horde House. We mix up the show tonight, because we can, and another e-mailer reads our mind with the Facebook question of the week– what could this gamechanger in 5.4 be and how does it function with old content? We theorize some creative solutions with our live chatters at VOG.
Also, we talk about a charity effort that our hosts will be involved with over the coming weeks. Even if you don’t agree with all our viewpoints this week, please consider helping out this worthy cause. (Click More... for More)
Patch 5.2 is upon us! Well, one part of it is still coming out in pieces. We outline the LFR Schedule tonight and talk about if this is an idea we support, or dislike. Also, there’s big gossip on the Warcraft movie. Just why did the directors change on this project, anyway?
Blizzard is not only showing Diablo 3 on PS3 at PAX… but something new as well. We speculate, and then get super jealous that we aren’t going to the show. (Click more... for more)
The 5.2 trailer is released, which has us reflecting on some of the great trailers of the game’s past in our Facebook question of the week segement. In the news this week, we talk about some changes to quest and rare mob tagging, as well as other clarifications that have arisen on the upcoming patch. (Click more... for more)
Mere hours before the LIVE broadcast of this week’s show, Blizzard took the stage at the Sony Playstation 4 event to unveil Diablo 3 for PS3 & PS4. What could this move and “strategic partnership” mean for other Blizzard games such as WoW? Is WoW something we would even want on a console? We ask our Facebook listeners this week… (click more... for more)
Horde House kicks off it’s new LIVE recording schedule with this all new episode! Bashiok makes a community post on 5.2 with lots of details (that Rob can’t seem to keep straight) but oh– there’s a last minute change on the valor points conversion! (Click more... for more)
It looks like the Warcraft movie is back on, and we talk for a bit tonight about some of our hopeful ideas for the movie (and what relatives should be asked to join in). 5.2 news is still plentiful, with news on mounts, treasure rooms and LFR updates. (Click More... for more)
The whole gang is back together to talk about some of the latest 5.2 updates including some interface changes. Also, “Thunderforged” items will become a new type of drop, but is this meant to be a replacement for item upgrades altogether? The panel has some varying thoughts on just how this whole item upgrade thing has (or hasn’t) worked out. (Click More... for more)
