WoW: Five reasons to wait for Burning Crusade

With Burning Crusade to be out on every WoW fan's watch list, we've come up with this summary of what you guys can expect from this much-anticipated update - just a little something to think about as we count down to launch day:

1. Party Search system: This new "Looking for group" feature makes the whole trouble of looking for a posse for a particular quest easier this time around, as it automates your party searching for you. Sure, there are still some bugs to iron out, but then again, at least they're trying, and you won't look like THAT big an idiot waiting for the next party that decides to take you in for their quest.

2. New Skills: With the new lvl 70 cap coming out in Burning Crusade, expect new skills for all the game's classes - skills like Devastate will be available come launch. Combine this with the new cap, and you know this'll hurt (you enemies, of course).

3. New loots: Time to shake up the status quo here - green items are now on at least equal footing as blue items, and while this hails as bad news for some of the old-timers who'll wail about their hard-earned loot, it does mean better times for noobs out to earn some quick cash. Then again, this does up the chances of same said elitists getting even better stuff as they trudge along. 'Tis a vicious cycle.

4. New races: Legolas is past tense when the new race comes in. We've already heard of how "bishie" the Blood Elves will be, and combined with their incredible pride and arrogance (Bow to your queen..err..king!), we're sure you guys will get a kick out of them...or end up kicking THEM when they're implemented. Blood elves indeed - they'll boil your blood dry just talking to them. The Draenai, on the other hand, offer a more Eastern-European feel to the Alliance, and while they're nowhere near as pretty (Pretty men...ugh) as the blood elves, we're sure their repertoire of holy abilities are most welcome.

5. Three particular areas got our attention for BC: Ghostwood, Deatholme, and Outland. They're reported to be eerie-scary in a good way, and we're looking forward to trudging into them then Burning Crusade launches.

Once again, these are just opinions of what we're looking forward to in Burning Crusade. If you got anything you're expecting as well, feel free to say it.

WoW blows when compared to Runescape. The level cap in Runescape is much higher than in crappy WoW. Runescape just pleases the eye much better than the cartoon-like WoW graphics. Who needs more races when there is one universal race in Runescape. The armor types vary more in Runescape too. I mean there are like five in WoW..... Hopefully Blizzards gets its act together on its next expansion, because even AFTER this so called expansion, Runescape will pwn WoW!
