In the cold, harsh northlands...
The Lich King Arthas has set in motion events that could lead to the extinction of all life on Azeroth. With the armies of the undead and the necromantic power of the plague threatening to sweep across the land, only the mightiest heroes can oppose the Lich King's will and end his reign of terror for all time.

Blizzard Entertainment's latest expansion to World of Warcraft – Wrath of the Lich King – adds a host of epic content to the existing game world. Players will achieve soaring levels of power, explore a vast new continent, and battle other high-level heroes to determine the fate of Azeroth. As you pit yourself against the dangers of the north, prepare to:

Features

* Master the necromantic powers of the Death Knight - World of Warcraft's first Hero class.
* Quest to level 80, gaining potent new abilities and talents along the way.
* Learn the craft of spell augmentation with the new Inscription profession.
* Brave the harsh new continent of Northrend, the icy domain of the Lich King.
* Engage in epic siege warfare, deploying mighty siege engines to lay waste to destructible buildings in your path.
* Transform your hero's look with new character-customization options, including new hairstyles and dances.
* Explore perilous new dungeons filled with some of the deadliest creatures -- and greatest treasures -- on Azeroth.
* And much, much more...

Resubbed to WoW a few days ago, have a 62 Rogue, I do enjoy WoW, but I "hate" the PVE grind, don't mind PVP grind so much, since I do enjoy PVP. Might go back to DAOC, there's no decent PVP MMO out there to be honest, until WAR comes, that is.

No need for that.

But really... Do they need another WoW?

How many lives need be ruined? How many people need be turned? How much ruin must be wrought?

<insert anti-WoW rambling>

Amazon, I know its just an estimate, but it probably will be in November.

Honelith · March 17th, 2008, 02:30 AM

Hehe, Blizzard and their release dates, and here's me and my friend who were expecting Starcraft 2 in March. :/

Leroy · March 17th, 2008, 02:58 AM

Same as expecting L4d in January.

Unfortunately there is nothing official yet, but November is the most popular 'ETA' at the moment. Perhaps Blizzard will announce the release date (and Diablo 3?) at their upcoming invitational in Paris, June 28th.

Leroy · March 17th, 2008, 02:01 PM

That looks definite when its going to be announced the release date.

D3 has been rumoured to be coming and since... Well... I remember it's been "coming" for at least 3 years... Still nothing. I've all but lost hope... I doubt I'd even be interested nowadays.

A cool World of Warcraft the wrath of the Lich king poster.

Honelith · March 18th, 2008, 09:06 PM

I've always wished Blizzard would make movies, the movies used in Starcraft, Warcraft and Diablo games are superb and would be great to see on the silver screen.

Leroy · March 19th, 2008, 02:44 AM

D3 is like TF2 with how long it took to get out. Even thought D3 isn't out yet.

Maybe its that they want to get WOW - Wrath of the Lich King out first, as more important than D3.

MyNameDidntFit · March 19th, 2008, 07:22 AM

Yeah WoW has to be the fattest cash-cow there is in the entire gaming industry (meh, there's probably some Korean MMO that is more but... Oh well).

D3 would be interesting to see how they advance it from the old one but I think it would likely just end up being another incredibly similar MMO to the rest of them.
