Oh, and bug fixes and the like, but that's never as exciting as things with exclamation marks.
When did expansion packs die out as a species? Aside from the occasional Blizzard published addon, few bastions of this once staple of video gaming content remain. Now it's all about annual releases and DLC. Luckily for us, EA decided that the future is too important to entrust to a meager DLC download and harken back to the days of expansion packs.

Put down the gun and trim those fingernails. Typing of the Dead: Overkill is here to make you laugh, scream, and cry – all in the name of typing. Now available on Steam, this gore-filled typing game (simulator?) offers hours of entertainment, with co-op coming down the road in the form of free DLC.
