Player vs. Everything: the clone wars
That article was so biased and did not present a good comparison. I mean, the WAR characters were shown in-game while the WOW ones had fake mono-color background. And the whole article repeatedly screams: War isn't copying Wow cuz War is based on Warhammer and it was first! I say that who cares who did what first? Pick a game and play it, quit fighting over stupid stuff and go play the games. Don't waste time writing lame articles like that, go play the game and have fun. Geez, people will QQ about anything these days... I'm off to my WoW. :D
