Proudmoore the Busy WoW Server

World of Warcraft requires you to pick a 'home' server. The army of programmer nerds over at Blizzard have created hundreds of these servers as they market their game to millions over the world. Multiple WoW servers allow for faster game times, otherwise such a big mmoprg would be impossible on a single server.

Man, those guys at Blizzard must be making a fortune from the WoW game alone. So many millions of online players, having to fork out $19 USD each month - you do the math, it's simply huge. Couple this success with the fact that Blizzard make Starcraft and other big name games - it's a economy all to itself. Blizzard recently released Starcraft 2 to a massive audience in Korea. The Koreans love starcraft and it's virtually a national sport.

Lets hope Blizzard put their money to good use and bring us some more exciting stuff soon. Don't forget their other huge hit Warcraft 3 - a favourite by modders, who have brought out the brilliant and addictive DOTA and Tower Defences (TDs) as their known.
