I'm A Night Elf Mohawk

Well, maybe Mr. T hacked the game and created a Mohawk class. Maybe Mr. T is pretty handy with computers. Had that occurred to you Mr. Condescending Director?

I am really loving these new commercials, the one with William Shatner as a Shaman is funny too. Both of these are great commercials, leave it to Blizzard to come up with great advertising again.

I'm just going to throw this out there - does WoW really need advertisements?

I've lost enough people to that game.

nice- i wish i were a gamer at times - that is more my wife's thing - it doesn't stop me from appreciating the beauty of the art, tech, and here now the humor. funny

All the above thoughts occurred to me as I watched this spot. And one other. Mr. T is showing a little age. (Like I'm Not)

I pity the fool who plays Warcraft.

Love the Mr T commercial, he looks pretty much the same to me and I believe he went through a battle with cancer. I always thought that Warcraft was a Geek version of crack

lol. He very well could be handy with computers. We here in the suburbs of Chicago know how handy he is with chain-saws -- so it's really not outside the realm of possibilities.

First off, excellent commercial, freaken hilarious.

Now that that's out of the way; Mr T? I'm 31 years old and even I'm too young to remember the "T" glory years. This commercial must be primarily aimed at 35-45 year olds. aka "geezers" - at least compared to the average gamer's age.

An indication that game demographics are widening? Or just proof that WoW has already sucked in everyone else.

Not really, Mr. T is known to everyone. Even when I was in elementary school (I'm 19 now) I remember him being the sh@!

Mr. T is awesome, this commercials intent seems to be to dispel the "myth" that Warcraft is for nerds, this is the best commercial I have seen in a while.

In response to Ricky mondello about not needing commercials

""SHUT UP FOO!" ~ Mr.T

This was one of the funnier commercials i've seen in a while. Compared to the other long drawn out drug commercials this one tops them all. I dont think Blizzard is trying to revive a dead game they just want more to join.

Great advert, wish could say the same about the game but it is too addictive, so count me out.

Mr. T for the win
