Uh. So. Apparently if you're playing World of Warcraft in North America, and you find an Night Elf Mohawk -- which apparently refers to an actual NPC type, and not just their hairstyles -- you will be granted five Mr. T-approved Mohawk Grenades. These will transform the heads of everyone in their blast radius into a Mohawked Night Elf head. This is simultaneously the stupidest and the greatest thing I have ever heard of. Although at this moment I'm very pleased not to be paying $15 per month to Night Elf Mohawk noggin forced on my player-character. (Via Kotaku)

Dammit Mr. T. I hate WoW. Yet you make me want to desperately play it. Curse your hypnotic awesomeness!
DoctorSmashy replied to ClancyDamon:
You have just summed up exactly how I feel about this vid.

Thank goodness World of Warcraft sold out about five minutes after being launched, or people would be in these comments accusing World of Warcraft of selling out!

I don't understand the hatred of the subscription fee. I used to play Wow and only WoW, but I recently quit and picked up a PS3. And I noticed that buying just three games equals, if not exceeds, the cost of a yearly subscription to WoW.

@OnanRulz
And for that cost you get to play three different games, instead of one MMO all year.
OnanRulz replied to Kenny Strife:
Three games I will play for a month, beat, unlock all trophies, and move away from in the span of three months. Even with trade in, the money isn't there. Wow had more sustainability and long-term value.
I will admit that two-and-a-half years of WoW caused burnout, but saved on the wallet comparatively.
Danicus replied to OnanRulz:
then you apparently have nothing else to do with your time, if you're 100% games in a MONTH.

I love me some Mr. T, but if you're going to put in some content based on your commercials featuring the avatars of celebrities that play World of Warcraft, howzabout a thrown weapon in the form of a tossable Vern Troyer gnome, Ozzy Osbourne's Undead Warlock giving you a bat that completely heals you upon biting its head off, or William Shatner's Tauren Shaman providing your character with a permanent buff vs. stunning if you can make it through his entire rendition of Rocket Man?
lemur replied to TrapJaw:
Because the players of gnomes get ragged on enough without a thrown weapon in the shape of a gnome.

Nice.
Still glad I quit though.

The Night Elf Mohawk heads should also say all of Mr.T's catchphrases honoring his eternal awesomeness.

You know, I hate MMORPGs. Why do I suddenly desperately want to sign up for WOW?

Still better than Vanguard:SOH's 'Slappy Whistle' which makes everyone around you dance to crappy music.
/WoW sucks.
