I hear some people who play World of Warcraft still have social lives and care about things other than epic raids, and this does my heart good, as I worry that gamers are falling into that pit that Chinese MMO fans are rapidly being sucked down. I like MMOs, but I don't want to die for them! Regardless of what category your WoW habit falls into, you'll be pleased to know that Vivendi has confirmed the Wrath of the Lich King expansion for this year. Blizzard is remaining tight-lipped, so I'm not sure you should don your epic armor just yet, but it looks positive so far. Also, its been suggested that polar bears will be added as mounts, although there's no confirmation on that either. That almost makes me want to play the game just to get one ... I freaking love polar bears. [Via Filefront -- Thanks, Justin]

Bears? No thanks. They're number 1 on the Threatdown!
wow is evil, just say no!
I guess they're only doing this because The Golden Compass flopped, and there's less reason to sue. ;-)
Eh. I'll probably renew my account, level to 80, and stop playing again. I never got my Epic Flying mount this expansion, and I probably won't unless I decide to farm for it a month or so before the next expansion comes out. Something about that game rubs me the wrong way now, not really sure what it is though...
I will also renew my account, play to 80, get bored in a few months, and quit.
Fun times.
ill get to 80 play some DK and get some mounts then quit in 2 months.
I have the most original plan...
I'll renew my account, play to 80, MAYBE raid a bit, and quit a few months later
I will also renew my account, level to 80, maybe get a new mount or 2, probably won't raid, pvp a little, then quit in a few months.
Wait I'm confuse didn't they just announce that it wouldn't release till next year. Lowering their project earnings and in turn lowering their stock price? Seems awful odd.
*sigh* and the sad thing is, if there were anything that would bring me to renew my account would be a freaking polar bear mount...
I'll renew my account... wait, my account is still on. My bad.
I'll no doubt get bored when I hit mid 40's...
Again...
And Again...
And Again...
Why cant I get past there before my head says "New character time!"
And why cant we ride penguins... would be so much better. Well, not for the cows but hey ho.
Got to wonder what society has turned into when millions of men all over the world get excited about mounting a polar bear. A pixelated one at that.
dolphin mounts or GTFO
Can't wait till this comes out. Got back into WoW about a month ago and have been playing it addictively with my brother and my mates. Such a good game (+ it means I don't have to spend money on other games since I play it so much, 360/Wii have had no use recently). Death Knight class looks spot on as well. Level 80 raids will be savage as well :-)
I wouldn't play this game, except that my friends and family do, so it's really the best way to hang out with my brother, cousin, and misc buddies. Sigh. But I've managed to play once in awhile without becoming a mental wasteland, so I think it's alright.
Polar bear mounts would be awesome, but like all awesome things, won't be available to me because I can't put in the amount of time needed to raid/do arena-PVP for good stuff. I liked the idea of professions, because you can slooooowly grind them up on your own (I think it's fun?), but of course they don't really get you good stuff anymore. As long as they keep raising the level cap I can sneak into old content, though, which is kinda nice.
My 13 year old nephew has been chewing my ear off about this. Looks to be a fun expansion though and the fact that you can immediately start a 55+ character is epic win.
So...Bear Cavalry?
I'm really liking the Death Knight. Start out at 55 with a brand new plate class that can summon undead and wreck all kinds of nasty, plaguey havok? Yes PLEASE. Also, the decision to make ALL big raid dungeons availible in 10 and 25 man flavors means maybe I'll actually get to do the Arthas fight, which is something I've been lamenting (I've never been the big-raid type) so maybe I will drop a few months into this game. I understand this game comes and goes for people, but don't all games? Play it for a month then move on?
i sold my lvl 60 acct a while ago!(130$) So i have an even BETTER plan... not get it.
