World of Warcraft article in Metro Vancouver

While usually my Metro duties consist of taking pictures at parties and various other fashionable events around town, I had a chance to nerd it up recently and cover the launch of the World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade expansion on Monday. The resulting article is here, in the "Power Play" section (go to page 8 of the PDF).

Things that didn't make it into the article include the fact that apparently another reporter came by, asked a question or two, and left, and from the impression I got the poor fella didn't know much about the game. The people in the line up seemed pleased that, by contrast, I knew my stuff about WoW. Also, I talked to one of the sales people inside (power of the press means I got to stay warm and not freeze in the lineup :) ) and she was pretty amazed that people would line up for a game. She was even more amazed that my girlfriend is a way better player than I am. Or that my girlfriend even plays the game. Or, let's be honest, that I have a girlfriend. :)

i dont know that i would ever line up for an expansion pack. they need to do like eq2 and let you preorder the digital download of an expansion, so on launch day your account is already set up and ready to go.
