Want To Take On The Lich King? Here's What You'll Need
While I'm spending my nights chugging away in Azeroth, many of you dear readers are already parading your level 70 characters around waiting for some new content. If you're planning on picking up Wrath of the Lich King this November then you'd be smart to check out the system requirements Blizzard has released. Now I'm no expert on PC gaming but from what I can tell the requirements are pretty similar to the previous expansion. My laptop runs the game fairly well, though not on the highest settings. If for some reason I can't run the game you'll be looking at the saddest kid in the entire world...of Warcraft.
