Most popular Online PC Games
« on: July 26, 2010, 08:39:17 AM »
I am trying to find out what are the most popular online games for PC's (not Xbox, Wii, PS3 etc...).  I would also like to know what ranks there are for instance in "WOW" there are  the Death Knight | Druid | Hunter | Mage | Paladin | Priest | Rogue | Shaman | Warlock | Warrior, which of these is the highest rated.  I understand that there are different levels but making all levels even which would be strongest to weakest.

I am looking to name some gaming PC's.  For instance there will be the WOW series with the names used above.

Thanks for the input guys.

Other than AH I don't PC game enough to know what the big names are these days, but if you're looking for something to try Starcraft II drops at midnight tonight and it's gonna be pretty huge me thinks.

Thanks, but no I am looking to name some gaming PC's.  For instance there will be the WOW series and the name of each system as I have about I should clarify that I guess.  Thanks again for the answer.

That's actually a pretty cool idea.  You should build one called The Dweeb and ship it pre loaded with AH :devil  The Death Knights were the most badass you could get in WC2 and it's a sweet name in an evil sort of way.

I would say WOW, since it has like 25 millions players? Before WoW there was Everquest. Everquest is the father of all modern MMORPG.

Another thought on the WoW idea, rather than a class of character how about naming them after a much sought after item, weapon, or armor?

You're not going to run into any unforseen trademark or copyright issues with those names are you?

I know the Call of Duty and Medal of Honor franchises are heavily protected as is Half Life and WoW.
