World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Expansion Set - (Obsolete)

THIS IS A GREAT GAME. BUT you need to know the following... DON'T BUY THIS EXPANSION/PRODUCT. THE MOST RECENT COPY OF THE FULL VERSION OF WORLD OF WARCRAFT ALONG WITH THE MOST CURRENT RELEASED EXPANSION, IS ALL THAT WILL WORK. THE MOST RECENT RELEASED EXPANSION IS THE ONLY APPLICABLE EXPANSION FOR PURCHASE. THIS EXPANSION IS NOT TO BE SOLD AS IT IS OUTDATED/PREVIOUS PER BLIZZARD ENTERTAINMENT, THIS PRODUCT IS TO BE PULLED FROM THE SHELF AND IS SHOULD NOT BE SOLD. If you buy this product, I promise, you will be returning it as the License Key is expired (I GUARANTEE IT) and WILL NOT work. If you want World of Warcraft, you must buy the Original FULL version of WOW (typically $20, or so, depending on specials and/or retailers) and then you have to buy the most recent expansion if you want to, only if you want the most recent expansion. The Original FULL WOW version will include all expansions up to, but NOT including, the most current/recent version. You will have to buy the most recent expansion if you want it. Once the next expansion is released the previous most expansion will be available for use (at no additional cost) if only the Original FULL version of WOW is purchase. PLEASE NOTE: The starter edition is not the full version. YOU MUST PURCHASE THE FULL VERSION. I learned this the difficult way and have returned this particular expansion as it was expired as the full version of WOW (World of Warcraft) includes this expansion. I confirmed all of this with Blizzard. THE KEY WILL NOT WORK ON THIS EXPANSION. DO NOT PURCHASE.This may be slightly confusing, but to summarize, you will not have an active/usable LICENSE KEY with this product and you only need to purchase the full version of World of Warcraft if you want this particular expansion. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS EXPANSION!!!!I gave this 5 stars as the game is wonderful. My son and I both love playing this game together. Also, the 5 stars draws your curiosity of greatness while I am trying to draw your attention to be cautious and not waste you time and money on this product. I give this seller 1STAR as they shouldn't be banned from AMAZON for selling expired and worthless product. This seller is bordering on fraudulent activity by selling a product that is to be pulled from the shelf.If you a seller of this product reading this. REMOVE THIS PRODUCT and return it to BLIZZARD as they have informed me that you are supposed to stop selling and return this store shelf item back to them.Thank you!

Welcome to Warcraft 4: The Burning Crusade...For those who has played WoW, I believe that this game is the next in the whole Warcraft series. Yes, I know this isn't a RTS, but you do definitely have to practice strategy in a real-time setting!The game has changed dramatically that I don't believe anyone would be convinced that they are playing WoW anymore. The talent revisions, all the different items, different quests, new races to choose from, it's all different now.If people ask me if I play WoW, I'd say, "Huh? Who plays WoW anymore? That game's old." Blizzard has done well to come out with a new game that makes it more enjoyable of a MMORPG than the old World of Warcraft, and I see great new things every day that I play.I recommend this game to any PC gamer out there, especially the D2 fans of old(I am one myself!), and to those who have played WoW but quit. This isn't WoW anymore! Come back and enjoy Warcraft 4!!!

I was a big fan of WoW when it first came out. I had a great time with it, but there are several negatives that have finally outweighed the positives of WoW for me. The Burning Crusade adds new content (basically like the content of the original game) but does not address some basic problems with the game.(1) WoW does not have enough safeguards against bad player behavior. The text profanity filter is inadequate and now the game has incorporated (or will soon incorporate) in-game voice chat. Sorry, but that is a real turn-off for me (and ought to be for anyone with kids playing this game). I am not interested in hearing heaven-knows-who saying heaven-knows-what via integrated voice chat. Gross and inappropriate text chat was bad enough.(2) WoW is basically a grind-oriented game. People say there is a "story" here, but there really is not. There is a lore backdrop for the quests, but it is not a story per se. WoW is all about grinding for gold, gear, and experience/levels.(3) WoW instances cannot be soloed. Thus, if you want to experience instance content, you must form a group of 4 to 5 players (at a minimum). Sometimes -- usually, in fact -- groups of players are great, but sometimes they are just awful. I enjoy multiplayer questing occasionally, but I do not want to be dependent on it to enjoy and experience game content.(4) WoW instances take too damn long. Sorry, but they just do. Often, by the time you find a full group, you've run out of time to run the instance. Or you might get halfway through an instance, someone will drop out, and your group may well just fall apart or you have to wait again to find a player to fill in the missing slot. It's ridiculous and highly aggravating.(5) WoW's Looking-for-Group mechanism is really lame for a game of this scope and with this many subscribers. The current Looking-for-Group tool is nonsensical, unecessarily complex, and not at all user friendly. As a result, only a small proportion of players even use it.(6) WoW's next expansion, Wrath of the Lich King, looks completely unappealing to me, just more of the same for levels 70 to 80. It'll be a "must-have" for the dedicated WoW gamers, but for the rest of us? Meh. Not interested.The Burning Crusade does nothing to rectify the basic problems with a game of this type. It added higher-level quests and instances of the same sort and variety as the original game, of course, but that's about it. I got approximately halfway through the new regions of the Burning Crusade and just got ... tired ... of it. And I was paying $15 a month ... for this?I have played both WoW and Guild Wars extensively and, in my opinion, Guild Wars is clearly the better game: better story, better graphics, better and more varied options for various styles of play (solo/casual, group, guild, etc.), better combat system, sleeker armor, better (simpler) crafting system, better weapons acquisition, less grinding, more creative quests, no monthly fee, etc. And with the Eye of the North expansion pack coming out soon, well, this jaded ex-warcrafter will be headed for the new regions of Tyria with nary a look back.If Blizzard wants to draw me and other casual/solo-oriented gamers back into the WoW universe, then they need to introduce summonable non-player characters (NPCs -- like the henchman or heroes you have in Guild Wars), allowing groups and/or individuals to fill the gaps in their teams as needed or form a complete team of their own and so have a reasonable chance of success for completing the various group quests and dungeons in WoW. But, hey, Guild Wars has that *now* ... :-)

Brought this for my daughter and her BF. They both enjoy WoW a lot! If the screen was the size of my TV I would enjoy playing this also (reading the small print on the monitor equals can't see what needs to be done-the details to move the game play along). I can make out and watch the characters they develop, clearing out dungeons and completing quests (I ask)not forgetting PvP mode (player versus player mode). You can only level up to 70 in this second part of WoW. Need the Lich King to continue on to the 80th level. it's a very good game.

I spent years playing the base game and the expansions. A lot of fond memories of those years with countless quests, adventures, raids, and new friends. I enjoyed all the different characters you could play and how the game grew with the client base over the years. The game developers listened to the players and brought in features that enhanced the game play.

Great Price, This is an awesome. I would definitely recommend this to any one else who likes online shopping great price. Would definitely buy some thing like this again.

work fine!
