World of Warcraft on mobile phones
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?

    Yeah. Such a great Idea. I can do a quest to and from work and an instance or two relaxing in bed :)

    I think this is a brilliant idea!
    The game will get more popular, because people will be able to play whenever they need, without the aid of a computer!
    It’s been said that WoW gamers dont really get to see the light of day the but the actual fact is that some WoW gamers are in their teens and have to do mindless everyday tasks that involve going outside! (Such as school, learning… blah blah)

    It will be a momentus occasion, and a memerable day for every WoW gamer, World of Warcraft just in your pocket!
    There for when we’re feeling just a little bit etchy and fancy Pwning some noobs :) Haha!

    Go on Blizz, you know you want to!
    Not that you really need more money, but hell, you can never have to much, aye?

    For The Horde! :D

    I think WOW portable is awsome yes the screen is too small, but i think with all the technology out to day they could figure something out. It no doubt would be expencive but worth it.

    Also on a more personal note the whole ADHD thing WHAT THE **** DOES ADHD HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH WEATHER OR NOT A HAND HELD GAME IS GOOD OR NOT FRANKLY YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED PEOPLE WITH ADHD CANT HELP THE WAY THEY ARE AND ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT CAUSE MOST OF KIDS WHO HAVE ADHD TO BE HOOKED ON MEDS BECAUSE YOU CANT TOLERATE IT. YOU DISCUST ME!

    But the game dephinatly will rock!

    It
    Would be sweet if the controlls aren’t all messed up.but would it work on an iPod touch too?

    So. This mobile thing is a good idea. But, how much more will it cost? Will there be a special type of phone needed to be purchased? Will my service provider charge extra during use?

    The game in my opinion is not addicting. There needs to be something wrong with you if you play too much. For instance, you could be a perfectionist. Or Maybe you’ve always lacked a social life because of other people and it’s easy to make friends on WoW.

    Also, the whole relationships thing, I have a boyfriend. He plays WoW. I play WoW. All ours friends play WoW. My ex, however did play WoW too much. He told me it was the only thing he felt he was good at. He also had a problem with not knowing what was more important in life, friends or getting a job. WoW doesn’t ruin relationships, people do. People with problems.

    Overall, it’s a good game, it’s fun and full of variety. Lot’s of places to explore, friends to make, things to do.

    If you play for 16 hours on a regular basis, I suggest finding someone, and talking about it. Anyone will do. And then try to ween yourself off of it. Try to keep it at like 6 hours, plus raid time. ‘Cause I know what it’s like. An hour of game play is not doable. It takes time to get things done.

    In the end, if it doesn’t cost any extra, I’ll be sure to get it.

  9. ehhh says:

    well i dont see anyone really able to use it the movement would be frustraiting only thin you could do is prolly check acctions at most and mail but other then that fart and a phones dosnt have enough ram or graaphics to support it i think this is gonna fail or its fake

  10. This is too much for WoW players. WoW is really an invasion.
