Not even Crysis can match...

Nice, but WOTLK's was better imo.

As usual, totally awesome CGI... that was pretty epic. Too bad the game is nothing like that :D

Guy ravages the entire world in fire yet 25 run of the mill adventures will end up killing him by the end of the xpack woo.

I agree.

HAHAHAHAHA sooooo excited!

It was awesome seeing Aberdine, Barrens, Stormwind, and the Wetlands just get wrecked. Gonna be soooo awesome!

Patch 4.0 has already been incredible, cannot wait to play Worgen!

It's called a "cinematic" for a reason.

that is great ,deathwing

I don't even want to watch it, out of concern that it will somehow lodge itself into my brain and, through some devious mechanism, get me to do the irrational thing and resubscribe, even though I know I would quickly grow bored playing it again.

*watches anyway* :P

Meh, I thought that was kind of boring compared to most of their cinematics. They sure put a lot of money into making a whole lot of nothing.

They need to make Deathwing a 40 man raid only. It would increase the epicness. k0r3aN_pR1d3

What exactly is so special about that particular number? Hey, might as well make it a 500 person raid. The more people, the more epic, right?

There are plenty of MMOs that cater to people who want their MMO to be a full time job or whatever crazy masochistic ****. One of the reasons for WoW's success is that it doesn't demand that players obsess over the game in order to get anywhere in it.

Like I said, there are games for those people, but WoW is not that game. Maybe it sort of was that game when it started out, but I don't think that was ever really Blizzard's intention. They clearly wanted to create a MMO for the masses. I think the reason it was like that at the beginning was that they had a lack of endgame content anyway, so they needed to drag it out.

I don't play WoW anymore, but that's my take on it.

Now,that's a **** dragon.

They're sicing him up so much, but 10 no lifers will kill him. He's supposed to be the size of deadwind pass, and he almost destroys Alexstrasza before she runs away in the game. I'd just feel awkward, not epic, after I kill this guy.shakmaster13

yea I came back after a 6-month break about two months ago; WoW is fun provided you take breaks from it, especially if you have been playing it for five years like I have lol.

I think WoTLK had a cooler cinematic.

Too bad WoW will still look like crap...even with graphic updates.

It's sad to know that there's a strong chance Deathwing will be just another raid boss.

I will preorder it once the game is closer to getting released. WoW is a great game.

I'd rather have an (istanced) old AV/WG event with NPCs rather than a tank and spank + half a handful of abilities.

I mean, he's the friggin Aspect of the black dragonflight. He should be able to rip to shreds any humanoid with a single cleave.

I'm pretty sure that Blizz will do some sort of event similar to AQ opening. I'm also betting that the boss will involve alexstrasza since we know that she is already a big part of Cataclysm and even sits outside Grim Batol. At the end of the video you see the valley of heroes in stormwind too, which is where I think you might even see him at the end of the pre-expansion opening event where the alliance might have to help king wrynn and maybe the rest of the leaders fight him off.

Gamespot have the video up here too now.

When that Dragon lands in Stormwind and everything starts falling, thats just epic....I cant wait for this game. Im soooo tired of the entire FROST theme aleady!

Seeing him fly over Azeroth is pretty awesome. Imagine if flight paths where that fast? :P. But I didn't care for the voice though.

Amazing, can't wait to play it.

Taking breaks from WoW is necessary, but only because it is so fun/engrossing that it becomes unhealthy. If you can control the WoW addiction it is easily the most immersive and fun game to date (IMO of course).

The video on YouTube already has 1.4 million views. I refreshed it after about 45 mins and it went up by 200k views. Shows how much interest there's going to be for this expansion when it is nearing release.

WoW is too easy now..Blizzard has made the raiding so insanley easy now compared to what it used to be like. People that raided during Molten Core/Blackwing Lair days know what I'm talking about.
