I'll be the first to admit that I have very little experience in MMORPGs. The only online RPGs I've played thoroughly are Ragnarok and the Diablo series (if you even count that as an RPG). I've always loved Blizzard games and I bought World of Warcraft hoping that it would be another spectacular game.

I've been an avid MMORPG player since EQOA came out on PS2. Since then I have played nearly a dozen MMORPG's ranging from EQ to City of Heroes. I haven't enjoyed any of those games as much as I have been enjoying this one.

This game is one of the most beautiful and exciting games of all time. The atmosphere and overall gameplay is wonderful. Without a doubt, this game is definitely worth a 10 out of 10.

A perfect game for any MMORPGer, with easy, controls, delicate skill system and amazing scenery makes the game a favourite for even the CORPGers. The only thing that takes away from it all is the 15$ per month fee. If you are going away for a week or two it takes away from the time you have and you can't help feeling a bit ripped off. But I really suggest you give this game the free month it gives you.

Most of us know Blizzard or know their games or work. Diablo, Starcraft, Warcraft you know those great games. Blizzard has been developing this game for about three years now and it's finally come out! Well Blizzard fans it's been a LONG three years and it's finally payed off!

Blizzard's very first attempt at an MMORPG. Who would've guessed they'd ever venture beyond the realm of their popular RTS games? When I first heard about this game I was skeptical, fearing they'd gone the way of Ultima. You remember those old games that turned into a meaningless MMORPG? Luckily Blizzard has held its standards and has quite possibly turned out the best MMO game ever. Let's begin with the review, shall we?

Continuing Blizzard's tradition of releasing outstanding games, World of Warcraft is their first attempt at entering the field of Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPG), a new phenomenon in gaming. There won't be a second attempt - Blizzard has not just entered the field; they have completely dominated and revolutionized it. World of Warcraft is by far the most popular MMORPG ever, and one of the most popular games. Hundreds of thousands of players in America and millions across the world play this game. There are over 100 servers needed to support the huge population of World of Warcraft. Thousands of websites are dedicated to this game. For a game as revolutionary, popular, and outstanding, the only rating worthy of this game is a full ten out of ten.

Before I proceed, I must let you, the reader, know that I have never played an MMORPG before. I never saw the need to pay a monthly fee for a game after plopping down $50.00 plus for it at the store. I've also read about the plethora of problems associated with such games. But after playing this game, I've changed my mind. But only for this game because that is how good I think it is.

Several years have passed since the Burning Legion's defeat at Mount Hyjal and the races of Azeroth have continued to rebuild their once shattered lives. With renewed strength, the heroes of the Horde and Alliance have begun to explore new lands and broken through the Dark Portal to investigate the realms beyond the known world. Will these heroes find friends or foes? What dangers and rewards lie in wait beyond the Dark Portal? And what will they do when they discover that the demons they thought vanquished have returned to renew their terrible Burning Crusade?
