World of Warcraft

A computer game whose participants apparently don't know how to correctly make words plural.

Hint for WoW players: it doesn't involve an apostrophe.
<WoW Player> In WoW you can be Orc's, Troll's, Undead's, and the Tauren's. The Alliance will get the Human's, Gnome's, Dwarve's, and the Night Elve's.
<Non-WoW Player> holy FUCK learn some English you dumbass

World of Warcraft

Despite common belief, quite a fun little game.

While, sometimes, World of Warcraft - or WoW as it is abbreviated - can get tedious, there's always something to do in other parts of the vast world Azeroth, where the Warcraft storyline was set (except for part of Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, which was set in an alien dimension known as Draenor from which the Orcs originated. Incidentally, Draenor is going to be released in WoW with the upcoming expansion - the Burning Crusade).

Whether it's questing, grinding (exterminating enemies on a large scale for experience), or brushing up your trade skills - mining, blacksmithing, leatherworking and engineering to name but a few - WoW always has something to do.

And failing that, WoW (at least on my server) is full of friendly, helpful players who love conversation - you see, the chat is one of the major aspects of WoW. With chat channels (general, trade, local defense, looking for group), private messaging (or /whispering), group chat, guild chat, and a multitude of others, WoW is a game as much based on communication as on skill.

WoW is split into two factions - the Alliance and the Horde, which are then made up of four races each. Quite simply, the Alliance can choose to be Humans, Dwarves, Night Elves and Gnomes, and the Horde may pick Orcs, Trolls, Tauren or the undead Forsaken. All of the races have elaborate back-stories, particularly the reason why no Gnomes featured back in Warcraft III. Along with nine classes, each with their own advantages, and millions of appearance combinations, WoW is certainly a many-faceted game.

And, since it is merely a matter of opinion anyway, I'm going to go on and say: I like WoW. WoW doesn't suck.
Terry hit level 56 on World of Warcraft with his Gnome Warlock yesterday.

Jack got an epic mount for his Human Paladin last week.

I have a level 28 Gnome Mage on Nordrassil, called Khemri. /whisper me!

A secondary life for those whos lives suck to much. Players are usually at the sad, rock bottom of the social scale
World of Warcraft is used by many as an alternative to having friends, a job, a car, a girlfriend, or just a life in general.

World of Warcraft

A MMORPG action-oriented, strategy-based, game in which hundreds of thousands of people gather in server-like communities and help each other do their biddings. This game is divided into serveral categories in which players have the oppertunity to choose from one of two confederations; Alliance, and Horde. They then will be divided into eight races; the Horde will get the Orc's, Troll's, Undead's, and the Tauren's. The Alliance will get the Human's, Gnome's, Dwarve's, and the Night Elve's. The races also come equipped with their own racialized mount, such as a horse for the Humans, as well as special bonus attributes. Those races will then be divided into 9 classes, each race will get 4-6 classes (pending on the race); Mage, Druid, Warrior, Priest, Paladin, Shaman, Rougue, Warlock, and Hunter. From that you will be able to choose two primary professions such as; mining/blacksmith, along with as many secondary professions you desire, such as a fisherman. You will then have a choice to customize your character from gender, model details, and name. From then on, you will get to choose which type of skills you will use to help aid your quest, as well as what weapons/armors you will gather.

warcraft III

An RTS (real time strategy) game developed by Blizzard entertainment in 2003, shortly before WoW. It has an expansion pack called the Frozen Throne.

The game is the little brother of Wow, and has all the excellent replay value without the addictiveness. It has a very powerful map editor, which allows a variety of "custom games" played online on battle.net
