GameTrailers put together
a three-part series of Warcraft retrospective videos in the days leading up to the launch of
World of Warcraft's
Wrath of the Lich King expansion, and
WoW was the focus of the third and final episode. In over 20 minutes, the video looks at the early MMOs and influences that led to the creation of
WoW, the project's beginnings in discussions between
Blizzard guys while they were playing
EverQuest, and of course, the game itself.
In addition to listing the distinct features that made
WoW successful, the restrospective provides an overview of its post-launch history, up through
The Burning Crusade's launch. Everything from Onyxia raids to the ever-changing PvP Honor system is covered. If you're a hardcore
WoW addict, little of it will be new information, but if you're just getting started or a casual user, you'll probably learn a thing or two. See the vid embedded after the break.
