Proof that just because a lot of people are doing something doesn't make it good ^_^ "

Actually thats not proof of that at all.  What it is closer to actually proving, is that things aren't bad just because YOU think they are.  When it comes to entertainment, if a lot of people are watching the movie/playing the game/reading the book/listening to the music, chances are it IS good, regardless of if you like it or not.  Also, owned.

I'm Tank still looking for DPS,  Heals, and Range then G2G. 2 Bars 'till DING!

I demand WarCraft 4, FUCK World of Warcraft. That game ruined the lore I loved during my childhood while playing through WarCraft I, II and eventually even WarCraft III.

Still though, it's good to see Arthas meeting his end. Even though I find it insulting that it's by the hand of 25 unknown entities and 100.000 times a week. Bastard deserves it after betraying Muradin.

Using your logic wouldn't the 6 billion people not playing it as apposed to the 12 million playing it prove that it is in fact bad? "

Wow. What a bunch of idiots. Anyway, looks cool, just don't have the time for MMOs right now. Well, maybe when The Old Republic comes out.

btw is it official that arthus will die? It seems silly to kill of the main guy from Warcraft 3. Just sayin, i would assume he would go to a coma or hiberation........... dude is too legit to die.

LET THEM COME
 
one of the finest references to the LOTR movies since the first time this game came out.  CLICK ON STUFF
I GOT HOTTT DEALS ON GOLD AND ALSO RINGTONES

Yep Warcraft is well and truly dead to me now. 3 years ago I would have been all 'fuck yeah!' at the idea of fighting Arthas but now, with the game so overrun with morons and built entirely around perpetuating addiction to said morons their is well and truly nothing it offers anymore. 
 
You dont even type lfg now, they even automated that....

Aw man, I wish I had gear good enough for this. it looks awesome, but there's no way im gonna spend a hundred hours grinding in the lower level raids to prepare for this. ooooh weeell.

Didn't this come out a year ago? Also, the logo at the end of the trailer looks like "FAIL of the Lich King"

Yawn.. YAWN... and finally; zZzZzZzZzZz.
 
World of Whorecraft.

Arthas should not be killable. In fact, he should be impossible to kill. Because 25 guys shouldn't be able to solo him. The guy is considered 'weakened' in Warcraft 3: TFT, and still kicks ass. If he's at full power, 25 guys shouldn't stand a chance against him or his army of the dead.

Trailer for a patch. Now I've seen it all.
Excuse me good sir, have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No.
Then you have not seen everything.
Touche.
 
...Sorry, split personalities.

Saw my buddies raiding IC last night.  Looks alright, but they downed three bosses in less than two hours.  Kind of a joke.  Waiting to see the Arthas fight.  Personally, I think it's bullshit that you can attain Frostmourne and not have any negative repercussions for doing so.

Oh dear.
 
Guess I'll have to watch the Arthas fight on youtube since I don't have a subscription anymore. Even I did, well.... I wouldn't get back into raiding.

You know, its funny how many people hate WoW here in Giantbomb yet its the second most played game, but yeah its gonna be awesome too bad we got to wait like 3 months to fight Arthas lol

I'm more excited for The Old Republic... WOW is old news.

Blizzard has never ruined Warcraft Lore.  It's their own universe (although copied in most aspects.. heh) and they can do what they want with it.

Warcraft has an epic storyline. You could easily make a trilogy of films about it.

The story of Warcraft was better served when it was a RTS it's hard to care about it in WOW when it's all through text boxes.

finally this fucking douche dies
hated him ever since WCIII

" Read it as Fail of the lich king XD "

Looks a little like LOTR: The Two Towers shot at the end.

All this does is make me want Warcraft 4.

Kind of makes me think of Frostmourne as the new Master Sword

Oh man, Blizzard, you can make a goddamn trailer!

The haters are out in force, I see.  Myself, i'm a firm believer that if a game entertains a bunch of people then good for those people and good for the developers responsible. 
 
That's also one hell of a trailer.  I expect a lot of companies wish they had some of that editing talent on hand when it came time to make their own game's trailer.

Alright, I'm kinda tired of seeing some of you bitching about wow, without knowing what you're talking about
 
@SuperSecretAgenda:  As I said before, Arthas is dead already. Players in WoW "stabbed" his heart in a special and somewhat epic questline. It is only The Lich King that inhabits the body of Arthas, and there will always be a Lich King, so he might return again. And yes, he might be easy to kill on normal-mode but now that they invented the hard-mode system I doubt that many are gonna kill him the first 2-3 weeks, since its hard, really hard.
He is considered weakened in WC3:TFT because Illidan was trying to destroy The Frozen Throne. When Arthas stopped Illidan in doing that and became The Lich King he reclaimed his power.

@jakob187: It was probably easy because it was normal mode. They made normal mode so everyone could see and experience the instance. You can go hard-mode if you want a challenge. And, you can't get Frostmourne, but something similair: Shadowmourne.

I really enjoy the fiction of Warcraft, its definitely found a nice little place in my heart. WoW was something I put huge chunks of time in like millions of other people, but like what has been mentioned, the player base really detracts me from continuing to play it. I would love to play with people that appreciate the game as I do, but the MMO crowd kinda scares me sometimes. Now its just single player games for me. Cool trailer though, almost makes me want to go back... almost.

Now only if this was rendered in CG, "Frostmourne Hungerrrrrssss!"
