'World of Warcraft' Demoed on the iPhone?

[Benguitar]

WoW on an iPhone will lead to the end of man kind.

My thoughts exactly, that game is WAY too damn addictive to the masses, I personally never played it more than my 10 day trial because I didn't think it was that special.

for the sake of having a life, i hope this isnt real

I can't even believe how long I will be able to play. On a battery for my MBP 2.8GHz, I get maybe 40 minutes of play. My touch will be shot in 5 minutes I bet.

A workable, playable, easily-controlled WoW on the iPhone?

The competition might as well pack it in and go home. I mean, they might as well do that now, but there's still a bit of wiggle-room for something new and interesting.

playing WoW and driving?

It works exactly for the things shown in the video... This will definitely be a hit among us bank-altoholics Always browsing the AH and sending items in mail... Raiding and actual gaming will still be on a real computer of course.

I know a couple dudes who would probably get iphones just for this.

yeah but who cares about WoW. this just shows millions of possibilities.

O.M.G!

Yes ... now I think I've seen everything!

 

[Pugpuppydude]

NO NO NO NO!!!!
WOW is getting too powerful. It is soon going to be able to control the world through subliminal messages. Sorry, I once wasted two years of my life on mmorpg, and hate these games to the maximum. Stupid. Good news for WOW players though, this would be an awesome advancement in iPhone gaming!

Oh God NOOOOOOO!!!!!

Since when has man been kind ?


pity this busy monster, manunkind,

not. Progress is a comfortable disease:
your victim (death and life safely beyond)

plays with the bigness of his littleness
--- electrons deify one razorblade
into a mountainrange; lenses extend
unwish through curving wherewhen till unwish
returns on its unself.
A world of made
is not a world of born --- pity poor flesh

and trees, poor stars and stones, but never this
fine specimen of hypermagical

ultraomnipotence. We doctors know

a hopeless case if --- listen: there's a hell
of a good universe next door; let's go

Now when Halo appears...

 

[techfreak85]

isn't a different text font then PC/mac WoW?

 

[armoguy94]

Looks real. But what makes me think it's fake is that, how would the iphone hardware be able to run that game..... and it would be huge to install, could basically take up all of your iphone's drive... also if it takes so long for PC to install the game how long would it take for it to install on the iPhone? It also seemed very laggy, and hard to use (lots of small things for our fingers to touch)

 

[Merkuryy]

I want an iPhone with 5M camera, battery pack(even external is O.K.),more capacity, and no contract for Christmas

 

[=MuLti-CeLL=]

Awesome!

MMORPG's are the future of mobile gaming.

WoW with you wherever you go? Now that's dangerous, kiss any kind of life you had goodbye!

EverQuest Vet here and I agree as someone said above, I have a certain love/hate relationship with these games, lots of fun but MAJOR waste of time. I played for 2 to 3 years straight, then my wife got addicted for a couple...and well, we don't even think about playing anymore like this.

Warcraft II helped me fail out of college... Warcraft on my iPhone could help me fail out of life.

I second that!

 

[magamo]

It seems some people are too addicted to mmorpg and stuff...

 

[WayOutWest]

I would not play on my (future, getting the hopefully updated) iPhone. An Auction House/Mail WoW app would be cool though.

Its not installed/rendered on your iPhone. Its being rendered on a companies server, then the video is sent to your iPhone.

gah. New records of post-secondary enrollment followed by new records of post-secondary dropout rates.

Actually the way it does it is it runs the game on the company's server, then streams the video to the iphone genius!

Any one else want to be able to run Crysis on through this kind of service? Of course not to play it, just so I can say "Yeah, it plays Crysis"

That was a lucky find (I found it), I made the views of that video go from 300 to 20,000 in less than a day .

(Nice find)
