"World of Warcraft series sales hit 8.59 million in US

By Tor Thorsen, GameSpotPosted Jul 30, 2009 1:50 pm PT

NPD breaks down US life-to-date sales of Blizzard's MMORPG empire: Burning Crusade sell 2.27 million, Wrath of Lich King 1.91 million, Battle Chest 740,000, and WOW proper 3.66 million."

And they are making $314 mil a quarter! (over $100 mil a month).

Wow rips their playerbase off bigtime...Blizzard essentially the "Druglords" of the MMO industry.

The merger has ruined it. Lich king is lacking somewhat, (that said havn't been to ulduar yet, leveling alts).

Still after this month planning on jumping on the Lotro or eve train to give it ago.

With so many people buying multipul accounts to use, or replacing banned accounts, it doesn't suprise me at all. What does suprise me is the purchase sales aren't higher.
