WOW! World of Warcraft is Out Of this World

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket If you're into playing video games and the like then one such game you should look into is the game World of Warcraft. This Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, or MMORPG for short, has to put it quite simply taken the world of gaming by storm.

To date the game World of Warcraft boasts over a whopping 8 million people playing it, with a staggering number of people playing it at any given time. It's a large number whichever way that you look at it, and overwhelming to realize how many people are populating the world of Azeroth where the game of Warcraft takes place.

The reason for this is that the game World of Warcraft is quite simply one of the best MMORPG games around. Added to this fact are the enticements which come along with it such as the ability to create a maximum of 50 characters per account, with 10 characters allowable on a server.

Not only that, a player also has the chance of creating a character which suits their tastes, with a better than average number of character options open and available for players to choose from.

At the very beginning of the game World of Warcraft, players have the choice of choosing a character based on one of the two major factions which reside in Warcraft. This means that a player can choose from either the Alliance side, or the Horde side.

Once they decide upon this, a player then has the ability to choose from a total of 4 different races which are available each to a faction. This number goes up to 5 races per faction if you have the new World Of Warcraft Burning Crusade expansion pack.

And once a racial character is chosen, players of the game World of Warcraft, next get to choose from one of nine different class types. This is basically the identity of the person, i.e. whether you are an Orc of Warrior class, or whether you are an Orc of Hunter, Shaman, Rogue or Warlock class.

Of the nine different classes which are available in the game World of Warcraft, not all of them can be chosen by all of the races, for instance a Human cannot be of the class Druid, and neither can an Orc.

Once you finally get past that stage of the game World of Warcraft, you're then confronted with which profession to choose from. This is what will keep you in money, potions, armor and skills.

With a total nine main professions to choose from (you get a tenth one if you have the expansion pack), you will find that you can be just about anyone you want to be on the game World of Warcraft.

You can create a character and take him or her through their paces. On the game World of Warcraft, you have the ability to live a life you would never otherwise have even dreamed about, and which can bring you hours and hours of great entertainment.

Go Figure! World of Warcraft Action Figures 

Part 1

It's official - Warcraft in all of its forms is one of the best games to have ever been brought into existence. This is amply supported by the large number of players who grace the world of Azeroth not to mention the large number of the games which have sold over the years. And when you add to this beautiful melee such a thing as collectible warcraft figures you have pure genius on your hands.



This is admittedly one of their better moves, as fans of Warcraft, past and present will all rush to grab their very own Warcraft figures. To someone who has not played Warcraft before it might be bewildering to see so many grown men and women immersed in a fantasy where they have to go around looting, plundering and fighting.


It is unfortunately not something that can be adequately explained until you play the game and get Warcraft in your blood. When you do, you will surely understand the lure that collectible warcraft Warrior will have on the Warcraft fanatic.


This even applies to Warcraft members who have hung up their fighting swords, put away their potions and spells, and have instead returned to the mundane world of Earth. Owning delightful memorabilia only enhances the entire Warcraft experience for everyone concerned.

Go Figure! World of Warcraft Action Figures 

Part 2


To begin with though, these collectible Warcraft figures were introduced to the playing public through Fantasy Flight Games, with World of Warcraft Board Game. They offered to their fans who pre-ordered the board game, a chance to get 1 of 16 Rare Edition Bronze figures of their favorite Warcraft figures.


Since there was such a tremendous demand for these figures, Fantasy Flight Games then got together with Blizzard (the creators of Warcraft) to bring to the world a Limited Edition set of these same 16 Warcraft figures previously released as Rare Editions.


There was however, to be a difference in these Limited Edition Warcraft figures in that, as opposed to the black felt which lined the base of the Rare Edition Warcraft figures, there would be a green felt lining instead.



And on the rim of the circular disk on which each of the figures are standing, the Limited Edition Warcraft figures will sport a "ULTD" mark where the Rare Edition Warcraft figures have no markings whatsoever.


And the beauty of this lies in the fact that, while only 300 sets of the Rare Edition Warcraft figures were cast, the Limited Edition sets will be cast an unlimited number of times. And if that seems confusing, read on.


This unlimited Limited Edition casting of the sets of Warcraft figures will only happen for the time frame of one year in which they will be made available to the public. Also, these Limited Edition Warcraft figures can only be bought through the Fantasy Flight Games online store until March 31st 2007. And therein lies it's limited availability.

Who do you want to go to war with?

Travel Through the World of Warcraft With WOW Guides 

Part 1

For the dedicated game player there are many World of Warcraft guides which they can use to help in the game play. These can be found in many places although some of the best World of Warcraft guides are to be found in the World of Warcraft Allakhazam site and the World of Warcraft Vault.



These two websites contain pretty good World of Warcraft guides and you will find that they are very informative as well. These two sites aside you will also find that you have a staggering number of other websites to choose from if you're interested in finding World of Warcraft guides.


It's just a simple matter of doing a quick search on the internet for World of Warcraft guides and choosing a few which look promising. You can even continue to do this until you find the sites which satisfy your World of Warcraft needs.



A guide is also what is called a walkthrough and to find more on the subject all you need to do is to do a search for this as you would for World of Warcraft guides. They will ultimately yield up the same or similar results.


World of Warcraft guides are good in that they can help you find your way through the many quests, lands and towns of Warcraft without putting you to too much trouble. These are not in the way of cheats or exploits as they only help you through the various parts of the game.

Travel Through the World of Warcraft With WOW Guides 

Part 2


They are in effect, detailed descriptions of how to get through certain portions of World of Warcraft, and they have been compiled by other gamers such as yourself.


You will find World of Warcraft guides for just about everything that you can think of, with the most popular being that of how to get gold. If you look, just about everywhere you will find that there are references to obtaining gold.


With the World of Warcrafts guides however, you can go about these in a legitimate manner without having to resort to hacks and cheats. World of Warcraft guides can also help you to level up faster as you can by taking advantage of the other gamers' experience and knowledge of the World of Warcraft.


If you spend even just a little time away from the game and pay attention to some of the World of Warcraft guides you will find that you can progress far easier through your quests than if you went into them ignorant of what lay ahead of you. Then again, that is part of the fun, being able to explore the game on your own.

If you're looking for all the latest news, tips and strategies about Warcraft, then there's no better place for you to look in than the World of Warcraft Allakhazam website.

Originally begun as a site to cover the game Everquest, the now mainly World of Warcraft Allakhazam site covers all of the larger MMORPG's (in plain speak lingo that stands for Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games).

This means that not only will you get information on World of Warcraft Allakhazam will also be able to give you information on other such MMORPG's. That is of course if you can tear yourself away from World of Warcraft to play something else entirely, which many World of Warcraft players would say is tantamount to sacrilege.

Having said that you can be one of the millions on the World of Warcraft Allakhazam site to have their say and post their comment about anything and everything that is Warcraft related.

And the best thing about the World of Warcraft Allakhazam site? It's free, totally and absolutely free. Unless of course you want to signup for the World of Warcraft Allakhazam premium membership, in which case you will need to fork out a very small sum (under four dollars per month) to get access to all sorts of services not offered by the normal membership.

The only thing you won't have is the refined search. To post a comment on one of the many forums you will either need to have a free member log-in, or a premium member log-in. Just anyone can't walk in from off the streets and start posting comments on the World of Warcraft Allakhazam forums.

And if you're completely new to whole World of Warcraft Allakhazam will be able to give you all the help that you need in the form of its massive online community.

If You Can't Beat Them - Cheat! 

The Sordid World of Warcraft Cheats

There are many people in this world who like to cheat their way through video games and World of Warcraft has not been left untouched by this.

In fact the many people who have various cheat codes to help wind their way through the many quests and levels of Warcraft have been so helpful as to provide other users with these in the form of free Warcraft cheats.

Naturally enough this has sparked off many a debate in which players who progress through the game at their own, and natural, pace find this to be, well, cheating! And not unnaturally enough these players who prefer to go through the game at an accelerated pace keep posting their free World of Warcraft cheats onto the web.

It's a never ending vicious cycle, but one thing that doesn't look set to happen, is the old "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em" attitude. Both sides are firmly entrenched in their diametrically opposing corners.

Where however, would the interested person go to find themselves some free World of Warcraft cheats? Well the most obvious place is the web, but that's too broad a range.

The next thing you need to do to get yourself some free World of Warcraft cheats is to run a search through one of the search engines, looking for "free World of Warcraft cheats".

You will then find yourself inundated by more results than you can even reasonably conceive of. You will then be faced with the choice of finding a site which you consider to be good and then proceeding to your World of Warcraft game to put these into play.

For those of you who can't bear to see this, you might want to turn you head away now as I am about to give a very short list of the many things which you can do with your free World of Warcraft cheats.

The best and the most popular of all free Warcraft cheats is that of farming gold. As in the real world, the world of Warcraft also doesn't go around without some money in your coffers, and the best that you can do for yourself would be to get as much gold as you possibly can.

In the world of free World of Warcraft cheats, this translates into "unlimited gold!" Other free World of Warcraft cheats include methods on how to level up very, very quickly; how not to die, how to keep your armor and such from depleting as time and battles pass you by.

And for some people, these free World of Warcraft cheats will give them what they feel to be the necessary edge on their own friends and playing c

 




Think you've "heard it all" when it comes to making gold in World of Warcraft?

Well, if you haven't checked out the strategies of the guy people are calling the "most hated player" in WoW, you don't know it all just yet...

He has the gold-selling companies freaking out over the secrets he's been sharing!

Just look at what some of the people who are using his strategies are saying:

"I look fwd to trying more of your tips out. I sold a couple ******* for 25g a piece. great tip! I cant wait to try some more out."

-Andrew

"Love the Book, very informative, makes me realize the importance of ... have made 500 gold in two days just by... "

-Tobias S.

"I tried out the ****** on my 40 rouge and got a ton of cash just off the ***** not to mention all the greens and general vendor trash that dropped. Great tip! I cannot wait to try out another!"

You can check his secrets out for yourself here:

Warcraft Gold Secrets

Best of all, these secrets are 100% game-legal and won't ever put your account at risk.

The gold sellers are NOT happy that these things are being made public, hurry and grab them before they get pulled forever!

World of Warcraft Items - Give Me the Loot! 

In World of Warcraft there are many quests you can go on and there many lands you can explore. You will come across many people with whom you can strike up a friendship and you will also come across many people with whom you can have a free-for-all. And through all of these you will come across many World of Warcraft items which you will find of use to you.

These World of Warcraft items can be obtained through many means. One of these is outright buying. You can buy whatever items you need at one of the three auction houses (Ironforge - Alliance auction house, Orgrimmar - Horde auction house, and Gadgetzan - neutral auction house and available for use of both factions).

Or you also have the choice of buying any World of Warcraft items from the Non-Playable Character vendors who dot the landscape of the World of Warcraft. You will also find that you come across World of Warcraft items in your many quests and explorations of lands. You will be able to get these through either looting or plundering!

That does sound odd, but really this is how you manage to get your World of Warcraft items, some of which are necessary for you to complete your quests. These World of Warcraft items can be obtained when any monsters that you fight drop them or when you kill anything and there is something left behind.

World of Warcraft items will also come to you in the form of chests and the like which are strategically placed, and to get to these you will generally have to fight your way through.

Other methods of obtaining World of Warcraft items can be from trading with other World of Warcraft gamers. This is permitted in the game and some people go through these channels instead of putting their stuff for sale at the auction houses.

 

World of Warcraft items will also generally be color coded. Gray items are the most common items and these you will come across almost everywhere. They are thought of as Poor in quality, and considered vendor trash by most people.

The next color coding level of World of Warcraft items is White. These are also quite easy to find and considered to be Common, although they are not as proliferate as the Gray items.

Greens come next on the list and these are a better find than either Whites or Grays. These are also known to be Uncommon World of Warcraft items.

After Green, comes the color coded Blue World of Warcraft items. These are very Rare to find and can fetch quite a tidy sum. Unfortunately you won't be able to get your hands on these until you reach a few of the higher levels.

Purple World of Warcraft items are considered to be Epic, while Orange items are considered to be Legendary. These are almost impossible to find and will go for a very high price. All items though can be traded in-game by anyone.

World of Warcraft Walk Through 

Walk this Way, Oh Weary Traveler

If you're looking for a good World of Warcraft guide to help you through the many levels of play, you might want to also look through some of the numerous web pages available on the World of Warcraft walk through.

These are more or less the same thing as they both deal with detailed guides to how you can wind your way through the World of Warcraft game. These are not cheats though so you have nothing to worry about on that score.

The World of Warcraft walk through and the guides which you will find are merely there to help you navigate a clearer course through the sometimes murky waters of the World of Warcraft.

Of course there's no hard and fast rule that says you have to use the information you will find on a World of Warcraft walk through. You can instead proceed through the game at your own pace and use the World of Warcraft walk through as a last resort.

This can help you greatly because when you're stuck in a section with no clue as to where to go next or what to do next, going through a World of Warcraft walk through can give you relief.

The people who would normally compile a walk through have already gone through the game of World of Warcraft and have experienced many a quest and battle. They have gone through the same things that you now find yourself going through, and they have also probably come to the same impasse that you yourself now face.

 

To that extent you could try using the World of Warcraft walk through, or you could keep trying to get through by yourself until you find a way around your problem.

Another good thing to come about from the World of Warcraft walk through is that a rank beginner will be able to find help from a source that is willing to yield up its secrets.

Most World of Warcraft walk through sites will give their information for free. If by chance you come across a site which asks for a fee for giving you the information in their World of Warcraft walk through, you might want to consider passing it by and finding a walk through that is completely free, no strings attached.

You will also find that if you follow some of the advice to be found in the World of Warcraft walk through that you will be leveling up faster and in a completely legitimate manner as well. It just doesn't get any better than that!

World of Warcraft - Now an Online Sport! 

E-sports (electronic sports) have been around for quite some time. Quake and Counter-Strike were the two most popular E-sports, with online leagues and tournaments with tens of thousands of dollars in prizes. Starcraft is another popular E-sport in Korea where the top players earn over 200k a year! With World of Warcraft growing larger and larger, it was only a matter of time before competitive gaming came to it, in the form of Arenas.

When Blizzard released the first expansion for World of Warcraft (The Burning Crusade) they introduced a whole new aspect of PvP (Player versus Player) called Arenas. Arenas were special locations where organized teams of 2, 3, or 5 faced each other in order to get more gear. Arenas use an advanced rating system, similar to chess, that instantly made it the most competitive part of the game. Teams fought against each other day after day trying to get to the top 10 (out of thousands of teams). Blizzard then announced that they would be hosting a tournament for 5v5, and the top 3 teams from each bracket would be invited. This not only ignited the spark in some teams to climb even further but it also drew interest from many top E-Sport sponsors, such as Pandemic and Check-Six. Now not only were teams competing for a $10,000 grand prize but also to be sponsored by many of the top teams. It was a very competitive tournament, with Power Trip winning and Pandemic coming in 2nd, and really opened the doors for WoW to become an E-sport.

Very soon after, Blizzard made an agreement with the E-Sport tournament company WSVG (World Series of Video Games) to allow them to host 3v3 tournaments at their events. With $10,000 first place prizes, many teams practiced all season in World of Warcraft and then would travel to these WSVG tournaments. The 3v3 bracket is often the most popular one for spectators as it is very fast paced and there are fewer players on the screen then a 5v5. There have been 3 tournaments so far with many more scheduled and WoW is only getting more popular because of this. WSVG recently signed a deal with CBS to bring their tournament onto national TV.

 

 

A little over three weeks ago, Blizzard signed a deal to allow CGS rights to their last Arena Bracket, 2v2. CGS is a competitive gaming league that pays salaries (yes, real money) to professional gamers in their league. A player can currently make 30k a year just playing in this league. The CGS tournament is currently underway and there are many top contenders vying for a spot. CGS has a contract with Comcast and is often shown on their channels.

World of Warcraft started out as an online game with a very nerdy appeal to it but has very rapidly turned into a very well known game, growing not only in membership but in the E-Sports area. With the prizes dwarfing those of other E-sports, many players are crossing the river over to World of Warcraft.
