WoW: Wrath of the Lich King Release Date Announced 281
Mini-Geek and many others tipped news that Blizzard has announced the release date for Wrath of the Lich King , World of Warcraft's second expansion. It will be in stores on November 13th in the US and Europe. They've also released details about the contents of the Collector's Edition. Wrath will be preceded by a large content patch, which will expand the talent trees and include many of the gameplay changes set for the expansion (including the consolidation of spell damage and healing into 'spellpower,' achievements, and a new profession). The patch was installed on the public test realm yesterday, and the current patch notes are available.

I think I've covered the major ones. On that note, I have my copy on preorder.

Uh, I've been playing etc online for like a week. That game was crap. Eve/WAR maybe, but etc, never.

Actually, most of my friends who play WoW are women, not men.
Think of all the poor hubbies who will be saying "But sweetness, can't I roll a death knight oo?"
To which their wives will say "Step away from my pink-haired Gnome Death Knight or you're sleeping on the couch tonight!"

You wish. The Chinese leveling service will be taking care of my 4 characters I need to get from 70-80 on my 2 other accounts while I play with my new DK on the third one.
Northrend isn't going to be less crowded, its just going to be a lot less social. When most of the conversations are going to be: "You make me food/waterrr?" and "Ni hao?", you aren't going to have much witty banter. And that's assuming that there aren't whole guilds who have turned on Glider.
Luckily, there's always the Barrens.

Also calculating the total paid and thinking its expensive is just ridiculous, I mean, will he stop eating because he spent a lot of money on food?
You're not really comparing WoW with food, are you? Really? I hope I won't have to explain how unrelated that comment is, since food is a necessity and WoW/[insert any MMORPG] is merely what you choose to do with your time...
