Eurogamer rated WotLK; A perfect 10/10.
For those silly Wow hating nerds: read the full review on:
http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/launchreview.asp?reviewid=978693
"Northrend swaps madness for lyricism, spectacle for heart-wrenching, melancholy beauty.
Its vast zones have been sculpted with infinite care around the non-linear flowering of the quest lines. They have tremendous variation and density of detail, stunning vistas everywhere you look, impressive architecture, and an eerie, haunting quality that will be familiar to anyone who's visited our own far North, be it Iceland, Siberia or the Canadian Rockies. Even the skies, lit with shifting veils of aurora, are enough to make your hair stand on end (assisted by the atmospheric musical score). It is classic fantasy.
"Wrath of the Lich King takes the best-of-breed MMO and improves everything about it.
It's a work of supreme confidence and quality that is twice as fun and ten times as beautiful as classic WOW, not to mention anything else in the genre.
But above all else - in the breathtaking sweep of Northrend, in the assured, epic storytelling, in the constellation of brilliant quests - it is a grand adventure. Perhaps the grandest adventure in all gaming. In every sense, Azeroth is still the place to be. "

Lol, if that had been an independant review by someone on these forums, they would have been shot down in a shower of flames for being a fanboy.
He still reminds me of fanatical fanboys.
To me he's just bragging about the game and how awesome it is. I know it's not <<
ah well, loads of people loves it so i can't argue with that.
But to call it the best mmo in the world and that nothing can beat it is a little too much.
The speed of the mole and the power of steel is my weapon
It's great that it's got great reviews... (though I think Eurogamer a sh*** source in general)
However, why do you always have this burning need to put everyone else down? Its not like you're enjoying this review for the good it does to WoW and its players - it is the percieved "pain" you give to other games that turns you on.
"Nah nah nah! My game's got better reviews than yours! Eat your heart out! Nah nah nah!"
At best this is inane and childish, at worst plain sad and sick - if you're over 18 (or even 14) that is.
for context
Eurogamer also gave Burning Crusade, a 10/10
I do think WOTLK is better than BC
but BC was not a 10/10 to me
EQ2 fan sites
Nice try. But don't reverse the roles.
YOU and a lot of MMORPG.COM Wow hate posters - were the ones stating you hated Wow with an incredible passion in your posts and made fun out of Wow players.
I think people who hate games should see a doctor.
i too would give WotLK 10/10.
the game has everything i want as a MMO gamer.
- great quests (has your classic style quests, but it also has some great epic quests and story)
- good community (go find a good guild and stfu about general chat, its not THE only community.)
- competitive PVP (not balanced class vs class, then again its not supposed to be)
- great economy (huge amount of players, a very comprehensive AH with good market values.)
- new and improved crafting ( the new sets of items to make arent as expensive as classic WoW and BC)
- great solo play ( going around questing and farming is hassle free and relaxing)
mate, if you feel the need to post this kind of stuff in the mmorpg.com forums just to convince yourself that WoW is somehow still worth playing, you need to seriously reconsider your life in general.
No I am posting this to counter the zillions of "I hate Wow posts" on one of the most silly forums in gaming history.
This game is good and the professional reviewers confirm it. It is always good to have (again) some reference point on MMORPG_WoWhate.com. All back with your feet on the ground.
That's why I post. To counter balance the incredible moaning here about a game you can talk about in real life with your friends and have fun with, for months or years even.
Always good to know this.
what do you mean," Would have!"?... there's still time.
Well just keep in mind all those "Professional reviewers" were also giving AoC top scores of 8/10 n 9/10. Seems pretty much any game that has the money behind it is always gonna get a 'great review'. And seems most of these MMO reviewers are already in the WoW pocket, as most of em are fans already.
It's curious you talk about Wow fanbois. ) on mmorpg.com. For once they react, not used to it I suppose
I am not knocking you for liking WoW, but it truly is a game where everyone from the age of 5 to 100 can figure out by just loading up the game. People want a simple mmo with lots of fun, I give you WoW.
Everyone plays WoW differently, however I like mmo's with more of a consequence and that is more skill based rather than gear based.

It is also very curious how you mention WoW haters on mmorpg.com. For once they react, not used to it I suppose.
My opinion is up there, nothing further need to be said. I already said, you cannot prove opinions wrong because they are OPINIONS.
If that is all you have to say, I bid you good day.
Nice try. But don't reverse the roles.

Well you'll be first in line then because, if I remember correctly, you were the one actually calling Mark Jacobs (lead WAR dev) a pathetic, lying moron for being concerned about death threats on his person. If that isn't mental I don't know what is.
At least I have the decency not to troll other games threads like you do. I think about WoW what I think about it and I will support my opinions with arguments. You don't have arguments - all you have is hate towards anything outside of your tribe, if that. I never stay angry at people for long and I believe we are all red under our skins but what you argued for in that thread about Mark Jacobs death threats has put you beyond the pale in my eyes. You are a hate-infested little creature with no real joy in your existence. I feel pity for you because you can't get joy out of anything except other peoples' discomfort and pain. I detest you publicly and I think you need serious psychiatric help.
Now go ahead and report me. It was worth it, little man.
EDIT: I really need to find those posts where people says they hate WoW and the players. I feel like I been missing something. Where can I find those? Its best to look at both perspectives. However, I still like being neutral. Never coming back to this thread now.
Have fun..... for god's sake...

bro lich brought a breath of fresh air into WoW. Its really fun and the graphics update is amazing. Also i really wish people would stop saying its the best mmo its only the most popular and since its all about opinion there never will be the best mmo.
*high five the guy above* You said what I always been saying, in shorter sentences too.
Will you marry me? Actually no, I have problems with relationships online. LOL

Your post shows exactly how DEEP your hate is towards a ... game and its players.
Or how did you post it a month ago. "I hate Wow with a passion."
I knew this was coming some day... have a walk in the park and relax..
I was posting .... a good review on my .... preferred game in a ....Wow forum on mmorpg.com.
Oh BTW I never called MJ "a pathetic lying moron" either. So cool down...
OP:
ok whatever. too bad not every other reviewer agrees upon that

And I don't want to hear anything about "I don't believe in vampires" because *I* don't believe in vampires, but I believe in my own two eyes, and what *I* saw is ******* vampires! "

You see, I do hate WoW with a passion. However I do not hate its players or devs (some notable exceptions I have to admit to). I have no reason to wish ill on other players's games. You won't see me here in WoW boards taking my time griefing people and crapping on them.
As for the "good review" - the title of your thread is "Eat your hearts out." You are not posting this to make WoW players feel good - you are doing it to make everyone else feel bad. Just admit it. You get off by causing pain. If you just said "WOtLK 's got great reviews - great news for us WoW players!" that wouldn't be enough for you. You need to make it somehow painful to someone, anyone to enjoy it. That's psychological disturbance - a sado-masochistic complex. I am dead serious when I say you need psychiatric help - and don't take it as an insult.
Everyone should visit lake Wintergrasp. I don't think you can even imagine what it's like.
10/10? ok : make it 10.5.
not gonna lie they did a great job with siege weapons.
I'll just give one reply to all those points: It is a personal thing. As you will notice, I'm not talking about WoW and WOtLK at all... I didn't say anything negative about WotLK (haven't tried it so I don't think I have a right to comment except in out-of-content subjects) - I objected to bodypass's mode of posting as well as his obvious motivation which I find obnoxious. I'm adressing bodypass directly here. Yup. I'm not using the game as a pretext to attack someone. I'm doing it directly and consciously. I won't hide behind made-up BS about a game in order to hit somebody or some group I happen to dislike. Why the flying f*** should he find any solace here in WoW boards while he's been insulting and crapping everyone in WAR's for the past 2 months and now he's doing the same here? I have no respect or mercy for the guy whatsoever.
You won't see me here flaming you guys. If I have to say something negative about WoW I'll do it in the Pub. But I will go and raise hell here in WoW forums because it is not fair to just let him go. "Ye shall not suffer a witch to live." as they say in our parts. His bs, hate and poison is legendary over there.
