The WoW Cataclysm Classic "super" bundle has taken away a number of WoW cataclysm Gold spots in the charts of last week's and the Wii version leading the pack, placed in sixth position. The Xbox 360 as well as PS3 games are located in the lower tier on the list, at the ninth and 10th positions in the ninth and 10th spots, respectively. Wii Fit has managed to remain in the seventh spot for another week, however the same isn't the case for Wii Play and the Wii Play and Wii Remote bundle, which fell to the eighth spot.
Last night was the launch of WoW Cataclysm Classic: The Wrath of the Lich King There were 16,000 midnight launch events of varying kinds across Europe and across the world, including the San Francisco disco-dancing spectacle. Francisco. London was no different although it was more of a traditional event. The HMV flagship Oxford street store hosted the main launch party in the UK which saw fans turn out hundreds of people.
The numbers were likely to be larger than the number of people who showed up for the 2007 Burning Crusade launch at the same location. Even though the official figures haven't been made public, the line that spanned the entire length of the store was much longer prior to the doors opened than it was for the event last year and was not slowing down even after the doors opened. Hundreds of fans showed up shortly after midnight.
The event was led with Paul Sams, Blizzard's chief operating officer. He turned the crowd into a bit of a frenzy just after midnight, delivering regular shout-outs for Horde as well as Alliance players in the raucous crowd. Being a true-blood troll this reporter was disappointed the Alliance cheers were louder however it is what it is.
Sams wasn't the sole prominent Blizzard presence at the event. Lee Sparks, an associate producer for WoW Cataclysm Classic, was present to autograph copies of the game along with Sams when the tills were opened.
A few of the thousands who were waiting said they had queued for up to 36 hours. Two of the cheap WoW Cataclysm Classic Gold people who was at the top of the line, Scott Hamshere from Bromley was so overwhelmed by the excitement, he went to sleep just after entering the gates.
