Blizzard's "World of Warcraft" hits 11 million

[Oninuva]

Blizzard Entertainment is just over two weeks away from releasing the second expansion pack to its genre-dominating massively multiplayer online role-playing game World of Warcraft, Wrath of the Lich King. And despite increased competition this year from the likes of Funcom's Age of Conan and EA Mythic's Warhammer Online, Blizzard has managed to continue to stave off WOW fatigue to usher in that expansion's arrival.

Today, the Irvine-based developer said that its worldwide subscriber base had exceeded 11 million. Adding a little color to that number, WOW's citizenship would rank just higher than the total population of Greece, according to the Central Intelligence Agency's World Fact Book.

I think they should look for accounts with the same IP too... >.>. They wouldn't even have that many if they checked... There was a guy on yahoo featured, he had 30 WoW accounts. So...

Not bashing though, I play, i think it's fantastic (Thorium Brotherhood)

Cool We > Greece ^_^

he had 30 WoW accounts

WTF? Why would anyone want 30 accounts. That costs about €350/month, right?

11 Million is a lot more than you think it is. Haha. Not many MMOs get nearly even to 1 million subscribers.

Yes, very nice achievments.

 

[PurgeandFire]

Not too surprising. WoWers always want to get the new content asap. =P

Why would anyone want 30 accounts.

It is an easy way to get a raid group. =P But yeah, I think it is a waste of money. I prefer just to have 1. xP
