World of Warcraft Hits 5 Million Subscribers  by Craig D at 19:03

PC
World of Warcraft Yes that's right, 5 million Dwarves, Elves, Orcs and other assorted fantasy creatures all paying a monthly fee to play. I wish I owned shares in Blizzard, just a few, I'm not greedy.

Check out the full press release at Blizzard.com

IRVINE, California - December 19, 2005 - Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. today announced that World of Warcraft®, its massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), has surpassed five million customers worldwide. The subscription-based MMORPG launched approximately one year ago in North America, Australia, and New Zealand and has since released in multiple countries throughout Europe and Asia. This latest milestone comes on the heels of Blizzard Entertainment®'s recent announcement of a World of Warcraft expansion, World of Warcraft: The Burning CrusadeTM, which will push the boundaries of the game and offer even more content and features for players.

Still a lot of people joining the game then, it's still the best mmorpg available (I mean true MMORPG, not FPS hyrbrids like planetside) The expansion looks like great fun too.
