Yup. No box in the mail today. Much like my guildie said, I will never again order something for delivery that I actually want to have on its release date.

Meanwhile, I sit right in front of the archaeologist. Waiting...

I love the escapist as much as the next guy, but considering all the recent Wow episodes and all the Wow advertisements, i just cant shake the feeling that the escapist have sold their virgin bum holes to Blizzard...all thats left to prove my theory is Yahtzee giving Cataclysm a good review

no way yahtzee will never bend the knee to fanboys. He will not touch the game since he hasn't touched StarCraft yet.

World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Unboxing

John Funk takes us through all the goodies you'll find inside the World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Collector's Edition.

Watch Video
I've been fairly happy with Final Fantasy XIV until recently (especially when Squeenix FINALLY added an inventory auto-sort function, among some other things) but for some strange reason, when I get to the character select screen and click on my one character (being able to change jobs whenever is rather handy/neat, as far as I'm concerned), it goes to "Now Loading..." then promptly turns my monitor off and restarts my computer. Um.. Yay. So I ended up canceling the account, which will last until the end of this new free trial period. Conveniently received a 7 day free access e-mail from Blizzard for WoW so.. That was nice timing..

I played the Cataclysm beta and from what I got to try out, it was pretty fun! Can't really complain about what I've experienced during this 7 day access either.. Not being able to change job/class on one character is kinda lame (multiple characters all going separately isn't that fun, although at least the quests are fairly different.

Still not sure if I'm going to commit to the game again though, I have other games on my list and may not have that much free time otherwise. However, I noticed EBGames Australia's online store still has Collector's Editions available (strictly 1 per customer) and $108 AUD isn't too bad for a cool soundtrack, exclusive in-game pet, expansion disc AND art book..

Thanks for giving a better look at the contents, John! The art book is especially quite shiny..

I don't even play wow and I thought the collectors edition, or whatever they call it, was freaking sweet o_O

The only things I've ever really wanted out of the collector editions were the soundtracks. The rest of the stuff is niffty and all but damn, the music is great. As it is, I'm also stingy these days so it's the plain version for me. :(

Alas, I lack:
A. The funds
B. A credit/debit card to put said funds on
C. I believe it ended

The Collector's Ed is indeed beautiful, it was defo worth the extra pennies to me.
The art book is amazing, just having that would have made it worth the money to me so the other stuff was a bonus.

Massive ROLF at John Funk trying desperately to maintain a thin veneer of journalistic integrity and not weep like an over-excited fanboy who just wallpaper-pasted his boxers to the inside of his jeans.

Bravo to you sir! :)
There's nothing wrong with having fun. I like doing unboxing videos because they *are* fun. People like seeing what's inside them; we like seeing what's inside them. It's all entertainment :)
Damn right! It's that enthusiasm that makes this a great website- we can see that you guys are real gamers...

Made me smile though... I really wanted you to just drop the poker face at the end and go "OH MY GOD CHECK THIS SHIT OUT THIS IS AWESOME!"

P.S.- I should totally check in more often... I only just spotted this.
