World of Warcraft - PC/Mac

Shipping was faster than expected, kudos on Amazon.I had owned the game before but my copy was damaged. Rather than download multi-gigabytes of game data, it was more cost effective to just buy the game and let it roll. There is, still, a hefty chunk of game data that will download during the installation. Brings the game up to speed if you've owned it, with all expansions, and have a battle.net account. You'll have to setup a battle.net account and register game time (30 days comes with the game).I'm a veteran of the game, been playing for almost 9 years now. The game continues to evolve and provide every conceivable type of MMO experience. Player vs Player, Player vs Environment, Roleplay is standard fare. Unlike other MMO's, whose system is danger zones for combat, that can be avoided, this is more linear whack-a-mole combat. You don't have to do quests, which is the typical leveling and reward system, to advance your character. Although you miss out on some rich storytelling, you can advance by accomplishing group dungeons, exploration, gathering and working on tradeskills. Fight to the death, quest, explore, have pet battles, go fishing, or just plain sit around and chat with a complete stranger, it's open to whatever playstyle suits your fancy.Computer usage is fairly minimal for the lowest settings of environment. You'll miss all the eye candy without a decent computer, which looks amazing on a i5 quad core with 8gb ram and a recent 2-4gb video card.

I bought this for around $15 bucks, which I thought was cheap. It came with a 30 day subscription and some extra dlc. It boosts your character to level 55, I think. I have no clue how to play because I'm kinda stuck on the Lich King ship, and now I have to raid some kind of village. I don't know... It's pretty fun!Update: 3/2/16I have gotten into the game and changed my character to a wood elf. I figured out that I was doing the Lich King expansion pack. To be honest, there's so much to this game that I don't know. My subscription ran out.... I can't wait to buy another one!! Doing some of the quests can be sorta boring when your just fighting monsters and earning money.After that you can travel ANYWHERE!! I've only been in the same town/area and its huge! Like I said, there's so much to this game that I cannot explain.

This game has no single player mode or local random map mode. If you buy it, your committed to subscribing every month for a fee just to play it. It might be worth it to some, but not me. I think the new Elder Scrolls online will replace this. With this game you can't really customize your character that much, and the graphics look rather bad. If you go to the website for WOW you can download this game for like $5, the real money comes from the subscriptions. You should only buy this set if you really want the colorful booklet inside, which explains the game. I wish Blizzard would make another strategy type game, like Starcraft is, for Warcraft. This game, if you don't know, is like an RPG game, like Elder Scrolls.

I never give one star reviews but I am going to for this product, that being said there are some good points when it comes to the supplier and I want to preface this by saying the one star does not reflect them in any way.The bad - I bought the disks because I have a metered internet connection and the game is 25+ GB's. The thought was that I could install the entire game from the two disks in this package without having to download all 25 GB's of data from the web. I was wrong, the disk contains a small 5MB installer (the exact same one a person gets on Battle.net). Once you install that 5MB installer the game proceeds to downloaded from the web.The good - Shipping was on time and packaging was sufficient to ensure the product arrived undamaged.Final thoughts - If you are like me and have a metered IC don't waste your time.

Now I bought this specifically because I just wanted a copy of I thought I was actually buying the table. It's just a regular time card, but ironically. Enough. I bought something different, but regardless it made me smile. It made me smile so much because what was in it was, the original was the book the original manual. But update it and it made me so happy.Because it brought me back to my childhood like I said this is nostalgia at its finest.

My friends started playing WOW when it was in it's early vanilla stages, spending tonnes of money on the expansions. I had always been intrigued by the thought of playing world of warcraft but felt I would probably not get a fully immersive experince if i didn't purchase the expansions. This battle chest however, contained the original WOW, Burning Crusade (expansion), Wrath of the Lich King (expansion) and Cataclysm (expansion). With the exception of Mists of Pandaria (expansion) and upcoming Warlords of Draenor (expansion) I managed to get all those games which at their release were worth a total of roughly $200 for like $12. It also came with one full month of WOW subscribtion (needed to play the game) (another $15 value) absolutely free. It really is a great buy if you just wanna try it out but also experience most of the expansions also.

I got this as a gift and the box came super beat up (not the cardboard packaging, just the inner actual product) and had CLEARLY already been opened and tampered with. Luckily, nothing was used and everything was still in there but it was embarrassing to give this as a gift in this condition.
