The Public Test Realms opened last night to admit screaming fans of World of Warcraft, itching to get their hands on the new content that is featured in the huge pre-expansion patch.
Patch 3.0.2, which approaches 1GB in size, will introduce many exciting features to WoW, including barber shops where players can change characters' hairstyles, beards, horns or earrings that they may have had for the last 3 years of more. The new Achievements system is also being introduced, along with Stormwind Harbor - a massive extension to one of the Alliance's major cities, and a 51 point talent tree for every class, introducing lots of new spells and abilities for players.
