WoW: Review @ Armchair Empire
   

The Armchair Empire is the latest site to <a href="http://www.armchairempire.com/Reviews/PC%20Games/world-warcraft.htm" target="_blank">review</a> 'World of Warcraft'. The score is 9/10 and here's a snippet:<blockquote><em>Usually when playing MMORPGs time management becomes just as important as learning the nuances of one’s character’s class. Sitting in the same spot with a few other people killing the same types of monsters over and over again has often been the norm, with the occasional quest thrown in for good measure. The frustrating thing is that this process has traditionally been very time consuming, requiring people to spend untold hours just trying to level up, hence the concept of grinding and time sinks became synonymous with many MMORPGs on the market. Now World of Warcraft has stepped onto the scene, and proven that a game in the genre can be played in short spurts and still be fun. Not only that, but it has tweaked everything many of us associate with MMORPGs to such an extent that much of what has usually been thought a drag, has become a fun, rewarding experience. All of what makes World of Warcraft what it is has made the title the best online RPG ever created.</em></blockquote>
