Harley Stroh, the line editor for Goodman Games' Dungeon Crawl Classics took some time before GenCon to chat with me a bit about what 4th Edition products from Goodman Games, what it's like to write adventures for 4th edition D&D, and how to write adventures that don't suck.
Paizo is running organized play along with the Pathfinder product line called the Pathfinder Society. While at Origins 2008 they ran a panel describing what they were planning to do and I was there to record it.

Also, I am so very excited to bring you the Vorpal Network, which I serve on the Board of Directors for. Go check out the site, the new forums, and the news page. We have some big plans and want you to be in on the ground floor.
The Pathfinder RPG/Sticking with 3.5 Seminar from Origins 2008 included Publisher Erik Mona, Lead Designer Jason Buhlman, and Director of Marketing Joshua Frost all of Paizo Publishing. They chat about the Pathfinder RPG, what it is, what it will be, and what you can expect from it.
The Tome looks at Healing Surges and the Raise Dead ritual for D&D 4e as well as discussing some ways that you can build a good Dwarven Paladin and Dragonborn Fighter.
Swing by the Forums and let us know what you think about the advice provided and the character builds discussed.
Mike Mearls conducted a seminar at Origins 2008 titled "Secrets of 4e" where he gave some more insight into how 4e works, why it works, and what you can do to make it work better.
