Warcraft RPG

Read the review: http://www.timewastersguide.com/view.php?id=1048

I considered getting this when I first started playing the MMORPG, but honestly the MMORPG gives me enough Warcraft in my life as it is; I don't need any more, and I'm sure my wife would say I actually need less.

I actualy picked up one of the RPG expansions that was free for a while at Driverthrough and was horrible unimpressed.  Mostly becasue it was an exact copy of the MMO right down to the quests.
Screw it, I'm buying crayons and paper. I can imagineer my own adventures! Wheeee!

Which would be very cool...to both people on the planet who haven't played the MMO yet.

I gues this is worth it if you are horribly deprived of in-person social interaction. Or you are horribly addicted to Warcraft and your computer is broken.

Either way, I think you would be better off spending your money on a therapist.

I've never played WoW.

I did get that free book, but didn't read it yet. Might eventually. In any case, I still prefer my pie, but the book is ok at a stretch. Nothing impressive, but kinda worth the $30.

Though, thanks to the BIG Weekend I just bought Feng Shui for $5 more.

I'm one of only two people in the world?

Cool.

Looks like there's a new version of this that's now called "World of Warcraft RPG" and it's compatible with the original.  Well I guess it can't be worse then the original and I find it funny that they're making a new one when basically the old one use WoW for all it's content.  It's still D20, but now OGL (not sure if the original was OGL or D20) so I'm guessing they've got a new skill set and stuff to make a conversion PDF necessary for playing old characters.
