Who Will Knock the King Off His Throne?

World of Warcraft (WoW) has been running strong for almost four years now with no competition in sight. David "Xerin" Piner takes a look at why it's so powerful with over 10 million subscribers worldwide and just what will it take to remove the king from its throne. Find out today just what kind of game might be the downfall of WoW and be sure to share your opinions on our forums!

The first question is one that comes up with any other major game launch. Guild Wars, Vanguard, and recently Age of Conan would see harbingers declaring WoW's defeat. Days before the launch the general chat will be filled with naysayers calling for the end of WoW. Their guilds are packing up, the streets will be empty, and there will be no one to help in the invasion of Northrend.
