The BEST multi-player RPG ever.

It doesn't get any bette then WoW. What Seinfeld was to sitcoms, what Star Wars was to sci-fi movies... Warcraft is to video games.

Ok, there's bad parts: you pay per month so this game will end up costing you a LOT of money. The game is designed to be addictive (just like cigarettes were)... it can be hard to stop playing. Ok, some people feel that way about games in general, but this game goes beyond that. I've heard people say with a straight face, "I don't think I'll ever stop playing WoW." And I'm talking about grown adults with kids and jobs and real lives.

This game is so far beyond any other online multiplayer RPG game it's not worth comparing them. And if the idea of playing with thousands of other people that know way more about the game and have been playing it much longer scares you, don't worry. The experts have no interest in picking on "noobs" and they are prevented from getting in your way or harming you by clever well done in game limits and controls.

That's not to say that people can't grab something just as you are about to pick it up, etc. But that's part of what makes it feel like a true virtual world. The virtual world aspect is empowered by a huge selection of fast easy ways to "express" yourself to others in the game in addition to voice and IM communication. This game takes the community aspect of 20th century online services like AOL and put them into a beautiful, fun, and incredibly huge 3D virtual world. The game has built in mail, auctions (like ebay), IMs, and chats, plus plenty of public meeting places in the big cities. You can walk, ride horses, travel on boats, fly bird-back, ride trams, fly in helicopters, swim under the oceans, climb the tallest mountains, you name it.

It will take you weeks to even start to understand how "grand" things are in this game. As you explore you will discover more and more aspects of the game that add to it's realism. The game does a very good job of introducing them to you slowly so as not to overwhelm you while you're getting up to speed with the way things work.

If you were curious enough to read this review, just buy it. You will not be disappointed. I've never heard anyone say, "I tried WoW but I didn't care for it."

Well worth it....

Not necessarily a huge gamer (or at least not in the last 20 yrs), but this game is definitely a great one...

WOW>>>

I have played almost every MMORPG that has come out and I have to say that this is of the highest quality. I am not saying it is my favorite game because I enjoyed Asheron's Call over 10 years ago far more. However, for players on large this is the most user friendly, understandable, and entertaining game to date. There is almost no learning curve at all and plenty of people to play with in the game. There is no wonder why WOW is the biggest mmorpg ever. Oh and its fun too lol!

Uhh......waste of money??

Okay, first off this game totally sucks. I'm a long time fan of RPGs. I've beaten the complete Final Fantasy Series, EverQuest is great, some of the other Warcraft games were good, Age of Empires, Command & Conquer, ectera. But this game let me done completely. I expected a h3ll of alot more from Blizzard. Even Diablo and Diablo II were better than this. If you're a hardcore Warcraft gamer/fan, then you will probably love this, if you're just an RPG fan.......buy something useful, like EQ2 or something. If this review hasn't convinced you, then please, do buy the game...........from me. I paid $49.99 for it, I'll sell cheaper, check out the Used & New selling and look for me.

I'm in WOW bata :)

I don't know about the min requermint, but I can tell you my pc's config, I have a P4 2.4, 512RAM, Geforce 5200 128MB<br />the installer is about 2.4GB, it took me half an hour to install, so it's big. I think I might need a better video card, coz in 1024x768 I only can use the lower setting. <br />I'm night elf hunter, LVL 10, now I can tamp beast now :D<br />the game is great, you have to see for yourself.

all I can say is WOW about WoW!

OK, i have played alot of MMORPGs, starting with UO and ending with SWG, and can honestly say this is remarkable. I am still keeping my SWG account because JTL has kept it alive (barely) but I am going to be spending most of my time on WoW. Graphics are remarkabe, it runs smoother than SWG, and there is alot more content. Yes, there is some nasty lag in open beta, but that can be expected, its a BETA and its a stress test. thats what you get when there are 500,000 people trying to play the game before its released

Beta shows Blizzard at top of their game.

After playing the open public Beta of World of Warcraft for several days now, I can attest to the fact that this is a deep, engrossing, beautiful and fun MMORPG. The characters and landscapes are brilliantly colorful, the animation is very sophisticated, the game-play is streamlined and fun, and the tradeskills are super cool. Anyone who likes Blizzard's games (Warcraft, Diablo, etc) will love WoW. It's easy to pick up, but manages to keep you entertained by introducing new things as you go. This is a tremendous game. I started the beta with no intention of buying the game, and now I'm sold.

Just What I Needed

Hands down GAME OF THE YEAR. So addicting, and definately not a grind to play. Imagine this, questing full-time and still being able to level up and get great items at same time. Welcome to WOW, where the game lets you choose what you want to do, without sacrificing fun. This game rox. Best MMORPG i've ever played.

FUN

This game lets you play as if you have super powers. It's addictive for awhile and sometimes tedious. I will probably play on a prepaid card when the Burning Crusade expansion pack is available.

get it

If you like mmorpg's then this is the best out there by a long way. Updated regularly and plenty of help. Takes about an hour to really get into it and is constantly challenging but no good game is easy. Prepare to lose you life and have fun while doing it.
