Warcraft?

If you don't know what "World of Warcraft" is, it is probably because you are a human being who needs to eat food and drink water regularly.

"World of Warcraft" is a massively multiplayer online game in which everyone can play and interact at the same time. It counts more than 9 million players.

The Blizzard Entertainment game was released at the end of 2004 and is still collecting victims.

The game was the subject of an episode of Comedy Central's "South Park." Titled "Make Love, not Warcraft," it aired in 2006 and can be seen on South Park's site.
