 The Greatest Game! October 2, 2008
WJ Rees (Near Swansea)
WoW is undoubtably the greatest game created so far. I have to agree with those who warn of possible addiction. It will take months to get to level 70 (soon to be level 80) and that is where the game really begins. You will then meet people who will really show you what a noob (novice) you are and this is after several months of playing! The game is so time consuming that at the top level you haven't got time to do both PvE (player v the environment) and PvP (player v player) so you have to specialise to become really good in one or the other.
The game reigns supreme but it does have its competitors. Warhammer Online has just been realised and may prove to be as good (doubtful as I find the combat ponderous). The next expansion for WoW is just around the corner and the game will be even better and more time consuming.
So in summary: fantastic game but be prepared to put in a huge amount of time if you want to reach the level of the top players.

I played this game for 2months and it really is a time waster. As you progress with them game youll find that the quests are similar to countless others, and all you are really playing for is higher levels for better stuff, and i say it is a time waster as it is addictive as you will find a need to set goals and keep playing until you achieve them, whether leveling to get a mount etc. But if you want to spend your money on a game just to spend time do it, but beware you may get addicted and your life may take a turn...
Great fun August 5, 2008

All i can say is WOW! lol
I thoroughly enjoy playing World of warcraft and will continue to do so for a long time to come.
The graphics are great, character creation is inspiring and once you ignore some of the immature people who play it becomes a great world to step into.
The world is massive and there is always something to do.
I would highly recommend this game!
Amazing August 1, 2008

I cannot understand how people cannot give this game below a 5 star. If you don't get the game look for some help, don't give it a bad review just because you're not clever enough to work the, may i say, simple controls. If you like runescape, tbh i like it, you adore this game. Anyone should buy this game, even if you don't have a computer, so you can say "i own WOW"
So Good Its Bad... June 5, 2008

You just gotta try this game, pray to the gods you dont like it.
I quit playing this game and took up real life just over 4 months ago, life is better now that I am free.
I've racked up 4000 hours play time over the past 1.5 years, that's 166 days, nearly 6 months constant play time... I obviously totally mastered the game, made hundreds of friends, yes friends, (they might be online but I still know, respect and talk to them like I would any other friend). Because of this game I lost my families respect, my girlfriend and did much worse in my GCSE's.
In a sense I do not regret buying it, but life is better without... believe me.
I don't class myself as a gamer or a geek but yet this game destroyed me. Don't be fooled, this game is near impossible to play casually. You play this, you must accept there is a chance you will loose everything.
Saying all that, you may find you don't like it, or that you can play it casually, but WoW hit the spot for me (non sexually XD ofc.)
