If this article was titled "Half-Life 2 Shatters Day-1 Sales Record" NO ONE would post anything negative about it. But just because it's WoW people automatically go into hate mode. It's ridiculous. Guess what guys, in the end, we're ALL gamers. It doesn't matter what genre you play. Get over it.
I would, I didn't like HL2 that much. Just chill though, you're getting overly bothered by something that's just not worth your attention. If people bash it, who cares, if you like it than enjoy, you shouldn't be personally offended by such a thing. We can debate the merits of the game but not whether somebody should like it or not, that's a personal call. No use getting in a huff about it though.

Anyway it is a pretty astounding record. I find it interesting how much fantasy related stuff has blown up recently. Harry Potter is the best selling book series of all time. LOTR: Return of the King was the only movie to even approach Titanic in worldwide gross, and now WOW is by far the biggest game in the world. There is a geek in most of the population it would seem.

Yeah I couldn't wait to start it, and it took up all my gaming time for a few months, few games can do that. But the gameplay became over-repetitive for my taste, and the experience just wasn't very rewarding (I always just felt like I was trying to get to the next level or get the next loot, not enough for me). I may return one day, but I'll probably wait for another MMO.
