WoW is a massive landmark in gaming. Just try the 10 day trial..it's worth it!
I've just turned lvl 34 and the rewards are worth the wait.
If you have no idea what WoW is..basically it's a an online multiplayer game with loads of other people playing and differant types of characters, Elves, Dwarfs, Knome's and Human's for the Alliance and Blood Elves, Tauran's, Undead, Troll's and Orc's for the Hored side.
Basically you run through that game completing quests and leveling up.
When you level up you gain more spells and armour and weapons, also PvP battles which is battling vs the enemy side (Alliance vs Hored)
Gameplay is great, but it is a bit fustrating running for hours to places which is the only bad thing about WoW, it has a massive MASSIVE map, lots of freedom and exploration to do so its kind of a "damned if you do damned if you don't" situation going on there.
That is all kind of relieved when you add fly point to your map, so you can get to your destination quicker.
Pay monthy is fustrating but it's a must and what you get for your money it really isn't wasted!
great game!
