World of Warcraft

Has anyone ever played this game? I'm interested in it but the 15 dollar a month fee is a real turn off. I don't make 15 dollars a month and until I have my A+ certification, I don't really want to put an ad in the paper to make money.

So until then, I 'd just like to know what it's like, if it's worth the money, things like that.

Buy the game and use up the free month.

Or find someone who has bought the game and use their pass to play the game for free for 7 days without having to buy the game, you can use their game cds.

I really like the game, but I don't have enough time anymore to play it.

I really enjoy the game also

Do beware if you're a powergamer, chances are you'll power through it too fast
It doesn't sound like thats the deal here, but it is something to be aware of.

The free month deal sounds enticing but still, it's only a month. Could I really get any play out of the game from that?

for about 2-3 hous fo play a day you could probably get to lvl 30-35 in a month.

A month is also plenty of time for you to check out each character for you to decided on which one you want to work with the most.

I preferr Horde, any class. My favorite class is Taurens, even though my main is an Undead (played with more people from TIMO with my undead)

Washe, I liked that guide. It's got me really hooked now.

Problem is, I spent money on BF2 and now have about 60 dollars left. Obviously I can afford another game, but would it be right or normal to just go out and get another one after only having it for a few weeks?

I would play WoW but my internet connection is crap. My brother recently got Guild Wars, and his biggest complaint is our connection. It just randomly drops. He enjoys the game otherwise, so if you want a free MMORPG, you could try out Guild Wars.

It's your money. Do as you wish with it. Sometimes I'll buy a game, and then 3 days later buy another.
