    Despite my issues with the game, Age of Pirates succeeds in being an entertaining game. The ship combat is satisfying, ground combat is quick and to the point, and character development has definitely taken a turn for the... Read more

    • Well developed naval combat. Great ship design. Open ended non-linear play.
    • Crashes like there's no tomorrow. Some balancing issues between difficulty and character level.

    With its spectacular design, dazzling polish and ever-compulsive gameplay, World of Warcraft seems destined to remain the everyman's pick of PvE-focussed MMO for the foreseeable future. Read more

    • Death Knights, Masterful art direction, Grand-scale design
    • More of the same old grind

    With the weight of a copy of Wrath of the Lich King in hand comparable to that of The One Ring , we all know basically what we're in for: sleepless nights, coffee, aggro girlfriends, porn, a lonely Thanksgiving, cheetos... Read more

    • Highly addictive, Enjoyable as ever, Great lore incorporation through Phasing, Death Knights are badasses, Existing classes have matured well, Interesting new zones tied together well
    • But all for the same ends, But then you must repeat the old world, But achievements are meaningless, That eventually boil down to the same grind

    So why bite the hand that made you a superstar beyond belief, right? Read more

    • Phenomenal questing system with fantastically incorporated story elements; art and music, smoothness of launch, current code and an elaborate achievements system (a huge time sink for people with nothing better to do);
    • High-end might feel too easy for some; consequently gearing up doesn't mean as much as it used to; lack of more high-end content right off the bat.

    Wrath of the Lich King is nothing short of proof that Blizzard still knows how to keep things fresh and still has the thinking power to serve up the creative, and the crazy. Read more

    Put simply, World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King is MMORPG gaming at its finest we've seen yet. The hefty $40 price tag may seem like a lot for an addon, but once you start the quest to ride on the back of a Storm Giant... Read more

    You've got to hand it to Blizzard; when they make an expansion they go all out. Wrath of the Lich King is simply packed with content that goes beyond the introduction of a new area crammed with quests and things to do. Read more

    Wrath' shows that Blizzard has plenty left to offer in their 4 year old MMO. Read more

    • The all new continent of Northrend unlocked; awesome new hero class - the Death Knight; outstanding orchestral score; the return of Warcraft Lore; high end raid dungeons much more accessible.
    • Nothing added for new players.

    A nice expansion to an already immersive game. Keep in mind that its a multiplayer game, and requires a measure of interpersonal skills. Acting like a jerk quickly gets you ignored, making the end game impossible. Read more or see product
