As of a few hours ago now, the highly anticipated expansion to the world's most popular MMORPG (some would argue that point of course) went on sale around the world, and is now live on all the realms.
That's right. All 8 Million of you can now throw even more of your lives away questing, grinding, PKing and all that good stuff. For the 2 or 3 of you who don't know about the expansion, well - go look it up, seriously. Well OK, you have this Dark Portal thingie, and you can go to this Outland place. The level cap has been increased to 70, flying mounts are in, two new races, a new profession, new socketed items, new instances, dungeons and PvP arenas. The entire PvP system was revamped, and the new arena has a ladder style system in place. Dungeons now have a selectable difficulty setting, and there are 3 new cities. Of course there is alot more to the game, not to mention the hundreds of new quests available. So time to dust off those plate boots and go exploring!
You can buy the expansion, and simply add the key to your account. Which will give you the ability to go to Outland and get a flying mount and drop bombs on innocent players. Sorta.
Enjoy everyone, see you on the fields of Azeroth or Outlands!

Shame I can't play it till I get home from work....
12 month since my last time on WOW. it's starting to be fun again.
you would see what the big deal is if you would start playing it
I've played Warcraft since the original Orcs and Humans many many moons ago and have had every WC game since. I love the lore and fantasy about it.
It's only becoming expensive when you account for opportunity costs - things you would have done if you didn't play the game.
However, at its face value, $15 a month, it offers the highest entertainment value per dollar spent. To me, that's extremely inexpensive. How much of entertainment can you buy for $15? One ticket to a 90 minute movie? a couple of DVD's for rent?
