» Superman Plays World Of Warcraft? Yep.

Fans of Blizzard's fantasy MMORPG World of Warcraft were surprised to learn of comedian Dave Chappelle's love of the game in his stand up act some time ago. Now the latest issue of Wizard magazine reveals that Superman himself, actor Brandon Routh, is World of Warcraft player as well. In a side-bar with an interview of the lead actor in this weeks's Superman Returns movie, Routh states, "I just like that world. I love medieval time and swords and horses and that kind of thing. It's fun to live that out, and I can play with some friends who also enjoy the game. It's challenging and mentally engaging. It's just fun." There is no word on what race or character Routh plays in the game no on what realm he plays on.

I don't think WoW needs any more marketing gimmicks to get more players. All the boxes have the "Over 5 million online" stamp on them already.

5 000 000 x 15 = $75 000 000 / month

That explains why Blizzard is not motivated to create new games (or finish! in the case of Ghost). Damn them!
