Latest World of Warcraft Expansion Blocked In China 165
The Opposable Thumbs blog reports that World of Warcraft's most recent expansion, Wrath of the Lich King, is not being allowed into the Chinese market. The Escapist brings further details, saying, "According to an insider, two specific shortcomings included the presence of skeleton characters and a 'city raid.' Nor did the submitted version contain the starting area for the game's new Death Knight class." The Chinese version of World of Warcraft has been modified in the past to remove skeletons and zombies.

You think you're joking, but in CWoW, you DON'T leave a skeleton behind when you rez. You leave a nice, neat little grave with a headstone.
