Has it been 4 years already? Apparently so. The popular no-subscription fee MMORPG Guild Wars is kicking of a 4th year anniversary party -- and yes, you are invited to join.
There will be cupcakes. "Sugary blue drink." And even "red bean cake" and booze.
And there will also be the Shing Jea Boardwalk (which is some place to gamble and play games, I believe), fourth year miniatures (I believe these a just neat little gifts), a new area called the Zaishen Menagerie (where you can train and buy pets -- video'd below), and upgrades to storage capacities and the Hall of Upgrades.
The celebrations kicked off today, but the actual culmination of the events is on the 28th, which is the actual anniversary day itself.
You can read more about the festivities here. Or if you feel so inclined you can play a free trial of the game here.
Guild Wars is also now selling a bunch of new sort of micro-transaction expansion packs. Going for $10 USD in the in-game store, you can buy the Pet Unlock Pack, Makeover Pack (to change your character's appearance), and a renaming ability for $15.
