The Wonderful World of Warcraft

bykrial Feb 28, 2006
154 Helpfuls 155 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Wonderful graphics, story, constant updates and new features, just plain fun to play.
Cons Mediocre class balance, a few bugs remain after a year of retail... addictive!
Recommended it? Yes

I always had a hard time justifying the need to pay fifteen or twenty dollars every month to play a game online. It seemed more logical to me to just purchase a brand new game every month or two, that way I would have a lot more games for the same amount of money I would be spending on one online...

Morrowind Meets MUD

bymickp Mar 1, 2005
67 Helpfuls 68 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great graphics for the genre. Huge world. Huge Variety. Highly addictive. Did I mention...
Cons A little too addictive. Occasionably obtrusive players. Expensive and continued cost.
Recommended it? Yes

Strange as it may seem for a hardened gamer such as myself, I never really got into MMPORGs the way many of my friends and associates have. Sure, I wasted far too many hours of my life on one particularly large MUD, but somehow the graphical interface of the MMPORG always seemed to take away from... Read full review »

World of Addiction

53 Helpfuls 54 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Fabulous detail; amazing variety; a new experience each time
Cons The problems of any online community; growing pains and server issues
Recommended it? Yes

I'm writing this review from the point of view of someone who has never played an MMORPG (massively multiplayer online roleplaying game) before. I can't compare "World of Warcraft" (for the Mac) to Everquest or tell you how much better or worse it is than your favorite game. I can't discuss the... Read full review »

Blizzard creates a successful community, Bryan Carey's New Millennium W/O

45 Helpfuls 46 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Graphical excellence, bottomless variety in character creation, rewarding co-op play,...
Cons Monthly fee ($15) may turn some players away, addiction level can be bad for employment!
Recommended it? Yes

----- A whole new world for the new Millennium -----

I'm already beginning to forget the details, but for quite a few months back in 1999 there was an ongoing doomsday-esque attitude about the assumed year 2000 debacle. Computers the world over were going to byte the bullet and our... Read full review »

World of What?
After selling nearly 400,000 units and already filling 40 servers of massive multiplayer glory in a just a couple weeks, World of Warcraft(WOW from now on because I'm lazy) has created quite a buzz in the gaming community. WOW is essentially the 10 year anniversary edition of... Read full review »

This is beyond any "World" in our Universe

byvegetario Jul 10, 2006
38 Helpfuls 39 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Fully customizable characters; a huge world to explore; many unique features
Cons I can't think of a con.
Recommended it? Yes

Introduction: World of Warcraft is an amazing, must own game. Caution! People should only play it if they have a lot of free time. Instantly almost any player will become addicted to this massively multiplayer online rpg. When addicted you will put work, chores, and even sleep off just to play the... Read full review »

Welcome to Azeroth... you can never leave

Pros Unlimited replay value
Cons Tuesdays
Recommended it? Yes

Writing a review that's over two-years old and has had the exposure of biblical proportion seems quite daft, don't you think? To add even more drama to the review is actually who is writing it. I haven't written a game review in about two-years. I'll let you put these two factors together for you... Read full review »

Overrated MMORPG

byMasta_Cloud Apr 10, 2005
38 Helpfuls 39 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Fun for maybe a month.
Cons Core game mechanics are horrible.
Recommended it? No

Let me begin by saying I've been playing MMORPGs for a long, long time now. I've played nearly all of them. I know what makes a good MMORPG.

My first criticism of this game is that it does not promote socializing very much. Groups are created and disbanded quickly for quests. You never... Read full review »

My name is Josh, and I'm a WoWaholic.

Pros Terrific game play, fun quests, great people
Cons Confusing stats, periodic server issues, noobs saying "can someone give me 10s?...
Recommended it? Yes

I've always loved computer games. I have enjoyed many in passing, but few games have held my attention for long. Most of my early play was dominated by some (now classic) first person shooters. Among these were Quake III, Half-Life, Counter Strike, and Team Fortress Classic. From there, I started... Read full review »

Doesn't Bother Me to Pay $15 a Month to Play!

23 Helpfuls 24 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Brings Warcraft to life, very easy to learn game
Cons Kids who need a spanking play it.
Recommended it? Yes

To start off with, I played Everquest for about 6 years and loved it for most of that time. I had a rocky start with EQ because when I first started playing about 6 months after it was released the game had a pretty difficult learning curve. The quests were not very easy to understand, but rather... Read full review »
