This is good and bad news for those gamers addicted to World of Warcraft, but then it will depend if you want to quit WoW or not. Blizzard has just officially said they are considering a mobile version of the massively online multiplayer game.
Some WoW players might find this pointless as they are never out and about, but then maybe they need to get more mobile and see some sunlight, a mobile version of World of Warcraft can help achieve this.
So do you think it’s a good idea to have people staring at their mobiles while moving around like zombies?

WoW mobile would be a great source to all WoW players,i couldnt imagine a better idea.
and if u have problems with playing WoW on mobile,just dont play it.
in love with the game or not u have to love this idea.
if u wana pull it out in work or school and get in trouble doing it,hey,thats your problem.
and ADHD?
ridiculous…
know wat ur saying before u speak ur mind.
never the less this would be somthing somthing great and would expand all world of warcraft players to a new lvl of playing.
<—-Thanks.
this is probably a bad thing for people who dont have a good cellphone its probably just gonna be for the iphone and nothing else.
so its not really fair for people with other types of cell phones.
I think it is a great.I wish they had thot of it sooner. I think it would be great to be able to play outside or where ever . Like alot of other people said it would be great to be able to check out your guy and sell or buy some stuff and be ready to lev up
well i think it okay idea but i think it will be hard to play on wow on the moblie because you have to control the character and use the skill at same time when holding it in your hand, aswell i think the scream it too small to play and i think the actionbar will be too small because if the action bar is too big then it well cover the scream and if it too small it hard to hit the action bar (anyway that wat i think),
thats bad ass but to small of a screen
I think this is a great idea because think about it if you are at a but stop or something and you have your cell you can play wow on your cell phone so I think it is a perfect idea!!
This game my brother is hooked on he breathes eats dreams WoW sad he is 20 and don’t have a girlfriend he literally thinks he will meet a wife over the game SICK you people need to get out your computer needs a break and meet real people have a real conversation now I love games tomb raider I beat every one need for speed is sweet but a game that rules your life and cost enough a year to buy a game system is not good they rack up on you mindless fools get a life
I sweet but how do u get it i have been tring for so long now.
I play world of warcraft my self and I enjoy It. I havn’t played in the last 6 months however cause I have college going on work and just havnt felt like it when i get home late after being busy all day. Its sad when ever response for this idea is because they are addicted… Sweet now I can play during school! Sweet now when we take vacations I can still play! Now when my mom takes me on a road trip I can play!
I think its a great idea but lets look from a buisness stand point, someone that looks at the opportunity and benefits who doesnt play the game. I think in that case its a great idea I know for one I find myself with more free time away from my laptop and desktop then I do with it (always doing homework, ect..) It would be a great passtime for those free moments when other wise I would do absolutely nothing. Now If you have to pay a fee then I might even consider only playing it from a mobile device and cancelling a computer subscription fee.
And in regards to the last person ranting about it ruining relationships and controlling peoples lifes. I wont disagree but I do have one comment and thats in reference to you saying in a year it costs as much as a gaming system. How many movies do you go to in a month? How much candy to you buy in a month for your self satisfaction? What kind of entertainment do you spend money on in a month? the average person sees 1-2 movies a month (10-20$), buys 1-2 treats at the movies (2-6$) that alone is more then a full month of entertainment of world of warcraft. you cant argue about the cost being dumb.
First of all, for those of you rambling about how addictive WoW is, it’s not the only addictive game. There are easily hundreds of games released at this moment that are played by people who play for at least 16 hours or more every day. If you dont believe me, log onto XBOX live, add 5-6 general ranked people in halo or any other high ranking person in another game to your friends list, and see how often they are online. Stop blaming just one game for addictions! It’s not the fact that the game is addictive, its that the people are addicted to video gaming.
