WotLK Intro Cinematic (MUST SEE)
Omg you must see this trailer even if you dont like Warcraft.
Its awesome. If you have played Wc3 you will love it.
So basically this is the very touching and awesome intro cinematic for "World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King".
View it HERE !!!
MUST VIEW. Isnt Blizzard amazing at making things like this?
It demostrates how awesome the Lich King is, how he can turn entire armies into undead in a matter of seconds and enslave the Queen of the Blue Dragons with ease.

True the video is great, but ingame the lich king's model is eagly, he looks soooo fat:

I've never been a fan of WoW (although I loved Warcraft 3) but that was truly amazing!

Even though I don't really like WoW, I must say I am a little impressed. But how can't you be? Blizzard is probably one of the best in terms of gaming. That's my opinion anyway. It seems nearly all of their games seem to be popular and quality in many ways.

It's completly irrelevant whether you hate or love anything that has to do with Warcraft... that video is epic incarnate. And I agree Blizzard is probably the only one who has perfected intro sequences like that (lol I mean they have the money...). And I worship rendered intros. They are always so cool...
But pisses me off like hell is the thought that Arthas is the next LEGENDARY supreme ruler of powers older than the universe... and what? He gets killed by some freakin WoW nobodys.... It just makes me sad. Seriously...

Don't worry about it too much. The lovely thing about undead villains is that they can always return.

It doesn't matter whether he returns or not (he'll probably die) what matter is that you can defeat him or just walk up to him and pretend to have a chance... sucks big time .

Arthas is only Lich king's body and personality. The true EVIL is the Lich King himself, his soul. Probably Arthas will bg cleaned, and then return in Stromwind as new human ruler, quite boring isn't it? Also the paladins (Knights of the silver hand) will use the Ashbringer on him at the starting even somewhere in the Plaguelands, they will defeat him, the Lich king will manage to flee. So why everyone fear the lich king and his powers? I mean, in all games he was the supreme master, why? Because he can be destroyed thanks to the Ashbringer with a single blast
They ruined the lore with WOW...

ROFL! . Some people really expect that the Lich King/Arthas will actually die when beaten in a raid? Blizzard knows better than that .
The lore is well intact even though it has gone trhough a few retcons.
Those "WoW nobodies" are videogame characters just like any other videogame character, but the only difference is that they are made by the player instead of by the writers. I wouldn't see people complaining if Trhall, Sylvanas, Jaina, Cairne etc. Would fight and defeat the Lich King. I don't see people complaining about Diablo when "some nobody" just comes up and slays Diablo, or about Elder Scrolls (Player made characters in both of them). It's just a videogame character defeated by other videogame characters just like Mario defeating Bowser, deal with it. 
P.S. Yes, I am a fanboy and thats for a reason: Blizzard's games are all some of the best quality in the industry.

Hmm, I've seen better (and much harder to do)

Warhammer has great videos as well, and these were much harder to do (I know some stuff regarding this)

Ok... That Warhammer trailer was beyond epic.
I do hope that wotlk has another trailer, since blizzard has always faithfully shown an undead warlock blowing up stuff and some carnage. I, personally, hate it, if people could be able to slay Arthas. I liked Arthas. Frankly, I liked most villains in warcraft. I especially liked Illidan, since he was the only guy that wasn't just evil, because he liked being evil (aka being evil for no apparent reason syndrome) (Kael'thas too, but shut up, I'm trying to make a point, here.). I also liked Kel'Thuzad, because he was the only guy who had a brain in that entire series, but, despite that, blizzard made me like everyone in that series and then they mucked it up by killing those guys.
WoW is the death of the series, sadly enough. Oh, well...
Ow, and both trailers were good, (warhammer's longer and believe it would be harder, since there they spent time, making the characters and their environments interact realistically, while Arthas just walks around with the words of his father in his head (same voice actor as in warcraft III?), but, to quote yahtzee, both companies probably have enough employees to form their nation.

Great, another MMO.
They always make cool trailers because the game sucks and they need "OMGWTFBBQ look how awesome it is!" before they get addicted.

Bah, I dont think the Warhammer trailer was super special like Blizzards trailer. Blizzards trailer has another feeling, which makes it better. Warhammer trailer didnt have that.
Blizzard can laugh at Warhammer now because they are larger and more popular then them now...
