It's Time to Come Back to World of Warcraft

Bright Hub writes: "World of Warcraft is the number one MMORPG in the world by a wide margin. It’s difficult to find PC gamer who hasn’t tried it at least once. Many people are instantly hooked and just as many probably play a couple times and find it’s just not the game for them.

There’s a third set of WoW players, though, the ones who put many hours into the game in the past but became frustrated with waiting to find groups, changes to their class, or a combination of factors and decided to hang up their helmets. For these players, the myriad of changes WoW has undergone since its launch may have gone largely unnoticed.

Which is a shame, considering that so many of players’ complaints about the game over the years have been addressed and, in some cases, completely rectified. We’ve chosen to highlight four significant changes to the game, and one upcoming Cataclysm, that should give even the most jaded of former players a reason to delve back into the game they once loved."

I do NOT need to come back to Azeroth, and I can't be the only one!

I can't go back to be a WOW addict once more. 4-5 nights a week raiding. Good times but I finally manage to quit that game >_> And I honestly love my PS3 too much now to go back anyways :p

Cataclysm is severely tempting me, though, despite kicking my addiction a few years back, and steering well clear of MMOs since. Blizzard just have that ability to polish stuff to the Nth degree, that I want to see how they've shaken everything up.

Nah. After seeing Guild Wars 2 and TERA, there's no reason to play that ugly shitty stale mess of a game.

stiff competition from some of the new blood, too...

Astral ships in Allods takes the MMO formula and then dumps it on its head with something brand new.

Vindictus is like out of this world and I'm hoping Nexon can find a way to get that game on the 360 and PS3.

As Darkfiber said, TERA is just straight-up awesome.

WoW? Well, Cataclysm would have to be pretty darn amazing to draw people back in.

Plunderstorm Is The World Of Warcraft Battle Royale We’ve Been Waiting For

HG writes: "Blizzard is usually pretty bad at keeping secrets, but the company somehow managed to keep this one under wraps until now. Plunderstorm is a special limited-time event that’s basically World of Warcraft’s take on the Battle Royale genre."
