Top 7 WoW Cataclysm Visual Changes -- Wackygamer

Hey guys, Jeff here from Wacky Gamer. I wanted to bring you the top 7 things I've seen in the latest World of Warcraft Cataclysm footage.

They finally filled in Thunder Ridge outside of Orgrimmar. I don't know what Blizzard was thinking, but it's like, let's put an area in the new zone where you could fall to your death and get your ass kicked by Thunder Coto trying to get out. Yay, no wrong!

No longer! They added flight points to Stranglethorn Vale. No more running up and down just to empty your bags for the Alliance because it made the Alliance feel like the redheaded stepchild of the factions.

The Goblin Barge and Thousand Needles looks awesome. You know, it's everything you would expect it to be: gritty. There's gears everywhere. Sort of looks like it was built out of the spare parts from the customer car my dad never finished building. Man, he really loved that 94 Fiat Punto; no idea why.

Westfall really needed something to break up all that big boring yellow nothingness. The giant crater is a nice addition— that Maelstrom in the middle. Don't know exactly what it is. Is it like a giant hurricane, a magical vortex, the result of a dragon fart? Who knows! But all I do know is it's really awesome, and you shouldn't cast any fire or lightning spells nearby. I don't know if you've seen a dragon fart explode, but it ain't pretty.

They made Orgrimmar grittier, which is awesome, with all the construction equipment and the dark coloring scheme. One major complaint people had was it wasn't hardcore enough. They really needed the city to be an icon that could justify the Meiling fall to hold online for Toy Story Mania at Disneyland during Blizzcon.

Now, for the Alliance, though! Abba Lyons in the house! You there? There is grass in Desolace now—big, big news! A lot of people are sitting going, "Who cares?" I do! Hopefully now when I level a character through there, the coda won't shake my damn camera like it always used to.

And finally, the Worgen male dance. There's one thing World of Warcraft needed: it was Justin Timberlake! And now I can get my Timberlake on. Actually, I gotta go. I'm gonna go watch Dance Central videos.
