Description of the game:

Game Play:

World of Warcraft is a MMORPG. As with other MMORPGs, players control a character avatar within a persistent game world, exploring the landscape, fighting monsters, and interacting with NPCs as well as other players. The game rewards success with money, items, and experience, which in turn allow players to improve their skill and power. Players can level their characters from level one up to level 60, level 70 if they have The Burning Crusade expansion or level 80 if they have the yet to be released Wrath of the Lich King expansion.
In addition, players may opt to take part in battles against other players of an enemy faction, in PvP battlegrounds or in normal world zones subject to the rules in place on the particular server. Duels can also be fought between members of the same or opposing factions, although these do not provide tangible rewards. Many players also choose to join guilds in order to conduct raids against enemy territory and instances.



Graphics:

The Graphic is one of the best that I have ever played. The tiny details were all there(Characters, trees, mountains, buildings, etc.)
Shadows were clearly seen and is very realistic. The background is fantastic. Everything is just so real...


Sound:

Sound is excellent. The way the npcs talk, the sound of combat, the footsteps, all sound real. There is even the sound of the weather, globin airships, as well as the sound of insects.


Conclusion:

World of Warcraft (WOW) is one of the biggest game ever created, with over millions of gamers addicted to it. The quest is never ending and the game has an aim, not like some other never-ending grinding MMORPG games. Although the game requires money to play, it is not a waste to try playing it.
