Tech Report: World of Warcraft

On the eve of the game's four year anniversary, and the release of its newest expansion pack, Wrath of the Lich King, Ben takes a look inside the world of the World of Warcraft.

The infoMania Tech Report is a weekly segment where technology guru Ben Hoffman takes a look at the newest tech products, gadgets and video games. It has been called “the funniest tech show on the web (No source for that quote is available at this time. In fact, there's a good chance it was made up.)

infoMania is a half-hour satirical news show that airs on Current TV. The show puts a comedic spin on the 24-hour chaos and information overload brought about by the constant bombardment of the media. Hosted by Conor Knighton and co-starring Brett Erlich, Sarah Haskins, Ben Hoffman, and Sergio Cilli, the show airs on Thursdays at 10 pm Eastern and Pacific Times and can be found online at current.com/infomania.

    I'm worried about the guy about 2min 8sec into it.

    He's in the deep woods with a camera talking about how WOW ruined his relationshit and messed up his life. . . Is he ok?

    Well, funny post, I enjoyed it and will show my brothers when they take a break from WOW.

    One of my friends is hopelessly addicted to WOW bad enough, that I have not heard or seen him in a couple of months. He is alive, I know that, but its always "I need to reach the next area", "got to finish this quest", and the like. I've known several people who havelost jobs because of this. I just don't get it, and I would call myself an avid gamer.

    Only goes to show that WoW loves you no matter what you @$%^&* yell at it, no matter how many times you make your character dance naked on tables for tips (looks guilty), or get your group's ass kicked when you get your first hunter pet and decide to play in a group.

    WoW even loves you when you get your whole raid wiped by cased an AOE DOT when you "thought" it was a "good idea"... (laughs, so many do this, and it amazes me every time..)
    Actually, WoW will love you... but your online guild mates might not if you don't have really a good reason... (oh man my pitbull/chiwawa mix attacked my keyboard right at the moment we were attacking! I don't know WTF happened, really!)

    And WoW loves pumpkins, pale skinny guys, big buff Aussies, normal Joes, girls with pretty voices, women that sound like they have smoked 40 cigarettes since they were 10 and are now 60, and everyone in between AS LONG AS YOU HAVE ONE DESIRE.... THE DESIRE TO KICK ASS.

    Live on WoW... Because Kicking ass is Fun.

    It's all about self-control. I'm a girl that plays WOW (and has for almost a year now) and I am still passing my college courses with A's and B's and I still work part time. Cool video though.

    This would be funnier if it wasn't so sad... Speaking as a girl who tried to date a boy obsessed with WoW, I personally hate MMORPG's and everything they stand for! It's no fun being with someone who gets more joy out of a Computer Game than their real life girlfriend. Seriously WoW guys, what the hell is wrong with all of you???
