World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Reviews

The new week begins with two more enthusiastic reviews of Blizzard’s World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade expansion pack. The first is at Ace Gamez with an overall score of 9/10:

Everything is new again, it’s exciting to discover new areas and exhilarating to conquer new dungeons, and given that Blizzard have already confirmed an expansion every year (quite a lofty goal to set after the delays for this one) there’s already an excitement about what they’ll include in future updates. Certainly it’ll be interesting to see how they intend to top this! Right now however, I’m busy trying to get a group together for the Underbog – quests need completing and ever more elusive armour needs collecting, and I’m almost level 65. And here was I actually thinking that I wasn’t going to become addicted to the game again. Oh well, see you in six months’ time.

While the second is at Gameplay Monthly with an overall score of “A-“:

It’s not a question if you’re going to buy Burning Crusade or not if you’re playing World of Warcraft, it’s a question of how soon. A little over a week after release, the servers are becoming very stable, the population is spreading out alot more and the players can finally start to enjoy the content to the fullest. With ten new levels with lots of great content, instances, tradeskills, gear, new pvp objectives and the amazing flying mount to look forward to, players got enough to chew on until next year when Blizzard has boldy stated they aim for next expansion. And actually by the look of it, they can soon start working on it, as you’ll hardly find a better tuned and polished expansion pack for any MMORPG.
