MnM Gaming: Episode 1 - World of Warcraft

2004 seems like it was so long ago. I had just graduated high school and was starting my journey into the work force as well as college. In 2005 I was an intern at the company I work at today, working with a few graphic designers who played video games quite often. That summer, the topic of conversation was a little game that had just come out, World of Warcraft.

I would sit there and listen to my co-workers go on and on about raids, dungeons, quests, dwarfs and elves. All with a $15 a month subscription charge. YEAH. RIGHT. Game sounds great, but there is no way I'm paying a $15 a month subscription.

A month later I was signing up, using my hard-earned money to handle that monthly fee. I was hooked instantly. I loved it. Wonderful game, wonderful story, huge community. Everything I ever wanted in one game.

I played for years, on and off, as new expansions came out. My human mage fighting for the Alliance against the nasty Horde led by the orcs. So many great memories in the early game, questing with friends.

I decided that Micah was probably old enough to handle the game, with supervision. So now, he gets to experience the magic. Check out our video review below to hear our thoughts on this epic MMO.

Overall Scores:
Micah: 4.9 million out of 5 million
Mike: 9 out of 10
Appropriate for ages: 10+ with supervison, 13+ otherwise
