WoW Burning Crusade Delayed until January 2007

Wowzer writes "Blizzard today announced that the release date for World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, the first expansion for World of Warcraft, is delayed until January 2007. From the article: 'By adding a few extra weeks to the development cycle beyond its original target date, Blizzard will be able to extend the closed beta test and further refine the new content that will ship with the game.' While disappointing now, what will this mean for the yearly WoW expansions long term? As Blizzard COO Paul Sams revealed plans in August that 'Starting with The Burning Crusade, every year thereafter we plan on bringing out a new expansion set.' 2008, 2009, ad infinitum?"

    A WoW burning crusade?? What good would that do? No matter how many copies you burn, you still need software keys and accounts and stuff to get them to work. It's not like 1990s warez, you know!

    "Hey! Gronk, Shnazzbit and the rest of you guys! Come here! I've an idea... How about we take that £10 that Fangtooth won in the beauty contest and go on a daylight hotel-building raid on Leicester Square.."
