i have heard so much about this game all over the place. It looks pretty cool but i don't really play computer games. I prefer playing something on a system than on the computer. But i hope to eventually try it so i can see why the game is so hyped up everywhere.

I love World of Warcraft, it gets very addicting and I get to socialize, so yeah go ahead and make fun of me, I get alot of that anyway lol

I dont play it as much due to work, part time study, socialising and other things. But still, I'll agree that WoW is pretty addictive, even when playing it late at night before heading to bed (and getting up for work the next morning).

I think the general consencus is that WOW is an amazing, epic and extremely fun game (to most people) - I think this is mostly due to the other people around the game - not just computer controlled characters.
You could play for years
It is ridiculously addictive. I used to play it so damn much. I have been sober from it for bout 3 months as well, I reckon I played it over the course of a year or two... the time just passed - didn't see it go!
Trouble is, once you've played it it makes all other games you've played seem boring or just so linear, that makes you just want to go and sign up for another taster...!

I think I was lucky. I managed to squeeze in so much playing in so much of a non-important time (surrounded by important stuff) like right before my gcse's - still got 8A* and 2A grades;
I played it so much, it wasn't fun anymore, yet I still needed to play. The only reason I managed to get off it is It just got boring. - oh and the game is endless - so many places. It is epic in its own right.

My friend who started playing, I told him, make sure you don't get addicted. he said "no chance" i'll only be playing it for 20 or so mins each night. Now hes totally into it, so I can say - told you so! It does seem to be screwing him over too.

So yeah. Go for it, if you can control yourself!!!! Its harder than it looks

Yeah, it seems that the recent Burning crusade expansion has got the old gamers (that has abandoned their lv 60 druid, priest, etc).. back into the game and trying to get their characters up to lv 70. Still Id have to say its pretty addictive, but usually play it as a time filler (normally 2 hours late, then work the next day).. Sometimes even on Sundays.

World Of Warcraftis the Best MMORPG game ever maded on Earth, it have about 8 billions of people who are playing it all the time, i play World Of Warcraft on official server called Vek'Nilash and it is Awsome, Great, i dont have word for that, you can play it hours and hours, days and days and you cant complete that game.... It is brilliance it is drogs of 21 century who dont play that game is NooB..... I am level 37 Orc shaman and i like horde, ally for me sucks... I can just say that i hate them... Becouse i kill about 732 allys and i'm much stronger of them, i have 1 more character orc shaman level 60, and next one will be Druid, Rogue or Mage, Priest.. Dont know yet, and i most get money and buy Burning Crousade one more continent there Outland.....


Who dont play yet World Of Warcraft, he dont know what he missing... The Best Game..... Ever....

I think it is pretty bad how much people do play WoW, i use to play and i played all day. Really though you know how much time you are wasting playing that game, why don't you look at your play time sometime on there and then you will realize how much of a life you don't have. I realize some people play it every so often but a lot of the people on WoW are addicted. They really get you involved because you have to be the best on your server and be rank 14, so you play all the time just to try to be the best at a video game is pretty sad. I am not trying to make fun of anyone, but seriously think about the game has taken over a lot of people's lives.



Haha, i don't think there is 8 billion people that play WoW because there is not even that many people living on earth. Although i am sure there are a few MILLION that do play the game.

I know, that is loosing your life time, but what i can... It is simply soo good and i need to played it... If you ever played these game you will know for that is hard to go offline when you are in game, but if someone dont wanna lost hes time i can suggest that he dont try ever start play World Of Warcraft, becouse you will moste get level 70 and that is about 70 days of normal playing, some peoples can get level 70 in few days but if you play like me, you will need 60-70 days...

before the two expansion packs came out, I've also played world of warcraft
but i found it extremely boring to run all the time from one place to another
i wish there were some better things in it than just run running around and hack & slash

one good point in my eyes was the amazingly big community of players from all over the world
having friends in world of warcraft made me continue playing it for 2 months (actually untill i reached level 35)
then i grew terribly bored when playing it, the only stuff that amused meh was fishing and gathering seeds from flowers
after that i grew even more bored, so i quit playing world of warcraft just 1 level before 40

now i can't see it anymore, not that i hate it, but its so terribly boring to see guys running around in that world
always the same view from monsters, the same boring quests and so on ...

I dont know for you, but i like running around the world, and completing quests it is fun...
