GH Review: World Of Warcraft Burning Crusade
Read The Review Here
________________
For a few years now market analytics have been saying that PC gaming is in decline. Judging from the sales figures of PC games there is at least some truth to their claims. But every single claim of theirs is void when you look at the sales figures of Blizzards MMO behemoth – World of Warcraft. The latest reports say that currently there are over 8 million active subscribers playing the game, every one of them shelling $15 per month to Blizzard.
Surprisingly it seems that even those numbers are not big enough for the team responsible for WoW. As with every MMO an expansion pack was bound to come out and I'm sure that no matter how bad it was people would still buy it like there was no tomorrow. But as Blizzard have shown with The Frozen Throne (the expansion pack for Warcraft III) their expansions are usually just as good as the original product if not better. That leaves us with the question: “Just how good is The Burning Crusade?”

Where they play only a minor role. It is only in TBC that their history is revealed. |

Very nice review, you hit all the important points. Personally, I am absolutely loving the expansion. The new land and the few dungeons I have been playing are great additions to the game. There is always something to new to do, and the rewards are great.

Good review.
Honestly, I disagree about Draenei to be the ugliest. I think Blood Elves looks like crappier then Draenei. I've seen a couple of Draenei in Outland now and they do looks pretty incrediable.

Excellent review like always. I've been reading DH's reviews for a few years now, they've even helped inform me of smart buying decisions. I don't play WoW any longer, just EVE, waiting for startrek online, and stargate worlds  . But I still appreciate the review, and found it quite tempting to play WoW again, damn you Zardon. |
