My review is about the computer game World of Warcraft (WOW). WOW is an online game were you can join over 7 million other players in a sensational adventure! In WOW you can play as The Horde or The Alliance where each has four exciting different races(Horde:orc,troll,tauren and undead Alliance:human,dawrf,gnome and night elf) as well as nine classes which determines the abilities your character has.
The point of WOW is to get to level 60 and to get better equipment by joining arms with other brave adventurers and entering dungeons that range from battles with five heroes to large scale raids with 40 characters. These dungeons range from fighting the the burning blade fantics in Ragefire Chasm to Battling the ferocious undead of Naxxermas.
Fast paced and excititing Player versus Player(PvP) combat is for those adventurers who wish to test thier skills against other players in the PvP battle grounds. For example Alterac Valley is a very simple battle ground where you and 39 other heros must battle another team of 40 characters and kill the enemy general. In Arathi Basin you must control the bases through out the battle ground. Each base generates resourses so the more bases you have the more resourses you will get. The first team to 2000 resourses wins. Warsong Gultch is a capture the flag game except for two differences, there are no lines and instead of tagging the opponent you must battle them.
This game is quite safe because swearing is blocked out and you do not have to talk to anyone. A player can also put other players who are sending whispers(a whisper is a priavate massage) on your ignore list so they can't whisper you anymore. There is no way of being bullied on this game.
Secure and entertaining the game of WOW is well worth spending your money on!

The game is highly addictive - and definitely occupies most of my time (8-10 hours daily).
Yes, its that bad =)

I have a level 50 plaladin on setinels (Sorry if i misspelled that) I play this game with my dad at least 1 hour a day and like everyone else who posted a comment it's VERY addictive. Overall i give it Five out of five, and sorry for those of you who are saying "I play webkinz" as i said in the "Webkinz" Fourm, buy a real game like World of Warcraft

Very good review! Many times when people ask me about WOW, I have trouble explaining it to them since there is so many different areas to accomplish in the game and you did an excellent job. I beleive this review must be outdated, however, since you are missing draenei for the alliance and blood elf for the horde (and soon to be the dark knight hero class to be added), as well as the level cap is 70 (soon to be 80) and the unmentioned PVP arenas where you may battle in 2v2, 3v3 and 5v5 teams as well as the Eye of the Storm battle ground. There are also a lot of unmentioned dungeon instances and raids which far exceed those mentioned, with more to come when the newly announced expansion is released.
I liked seeing everyone's different characters that they told about in their replies. I myself have a 70 night elf hunter, 47 night elf shadow priest, 35 draenei warrior, 25 draenei mage, 25 gnome warlock and 19 pvp twink hunter. You are all very correct in saying it is the best game available to date and it is in a completely different league than webkinz, which could never compete with WOW. You are very correct in saying, also, that it is very addictive (as you can probably see by my list of characters) so consumers beware, make sure you take game play in moderation.

I am a female, and I tend to stick to first-person shooters. I never really played RPG's. However after seeing a friend playing the game a lot, I thought it looked pretty good. I gave it a try. I just started playing a couple of days ago and I already love it!! I am completely new at it but I can't wait to build. I'm a level 7 paladin. Great review!

This Game is Really Addictive, you must pay for it each month, but it's worth it. But being addictive this game eats your time and you don't want to do anything else but play WoW so your friends thinks you are a WoW addict and that's true. People are nice on the servers, its like diablo2 but with all the stuff that was missing from it to make it a great game.

Erik if I can understand what it was that you wrote, you said that you want to play it and that blizzard should make a version for children. The fact of the matter is that you can play the version that is out now. If your parents are worried about the other people, they are able to put profanity filters on it and it is actually a children's game.

Just for anyone who plays this review was written pre BC so there wasnt any nof that included in the review
Posted by: Pearse | November 21, 2007 09:09 AM
This game is obviously taking up way too much of peoples time and money. And most of them don't know how to spell or puncuate a sentence properly either.
