@bigmuffpi for WoW you should be able to get each key from battle.net, which automatically adds it to your account.
I believe you still need a basic WoW key, but that should come with Burning Crusade. You'll still need Wrath of the Lichen King and Cataclysm eventually though.
I am not sure how high a "free to play" account will get you, but basic WoW get you to level 60, Burning Crusade will get you to 70, Wrath of the Lich King to 80 - and finally Cataclysm to level 85.
Burning Crusade unlocks the ability to create Blood Elf and Draenei (space goat) race characters. Wrath of the Lich King unlocks the Death Knight class class... but you need to have a level 55 character before you can use it... Cataclysm unlocks the Worgen (werewolf) and Goblin races.
@MrMooEar: Thanks for speaking up, greatly appreciated!
I think the issue is, though, that it's been very quiet on the European front for some time - and I'm not exactly sure which Twitter account to look at anymore (@TRENCHEDGAME hasn't had any activity since Sep 3rd, and not found an Iron Brigade account?).
Either way, still looking forward to Iron Brigade/Trenched/Drenched, so I'm hoping we'll hear some more news (and a release date) in the not too distant future - Europe could do with some love :)
IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Despite a sterling record of always hitting its release targets, Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. today announced that the expected launch window for Diablo® III, the next title in the company’s critically acclaimed series of action role-playing games, will be moving into early 2012.
What's the source on that? I see this comment every time Blizzard is getting ready to release a game. Someone claims that they are breaking their "sterling record"... But... how can you break a release date you haven't announced?
Sure, they've probably broken internal milestone deadlines, but as a consumer... that doesn't really matter.
Besides, it's pretty obvious that if they were going for a 2011 release, they'd have made a release date announcement. (Though, sure, I do believe they have stated a desire to release it this year.)
@Doctorchimp: Actually, I believe it's 15 Euro for Diablo 2, 15 Euro for Lord of Destruction (I think?). (which probably means 15 dollars each, considering standard gaming Euro->Dollar conversion rate :P)
You can buy it through your Battle.net account.
Also, yes, thinking about it - But I'm worried I'll burn myself out on the franchise before Diablo 3 is even released ;)
@Zelyre: To be fair, none of that is anything anyone new to the game needs to care about.
Same goes for people, like me, who only plays with a very small, select group of friends - where lists are not min-maxed. Sanguinary Guard charging a massive squad of Sisters Repentia, or Hammerheads using Railguns rather than ... that other gun, the Marine-chewing one? - just to be able to snipe Dante, lulz? :p
I don't think I'd like the competative side of the game.
