Around Azeroth: Clash of the product placements

Aug 12th, 2008

I know that WoW is an enormously successful video game with many spin-off products. But these commercial tie-ins may have gone too far. Why else would this shot from the WOTLK battleground Strand of the Ancients feature a night elf mohawk assaulting a Toyota Tacoma? (That night elf really does have a purple mohawk. Check the big version if you don't believe me.) Sure, you say it's a total coincidence. That's what they want you to believe. When that Recipe: Quarter Pounder With Cheese drops for you in the Nexus, don't come crying to me!

Tony sent us this image straight from the Wrath of the Lich King beta -- and we'd love to have your beta screenshots, too! If you have anything our readers might like, beta or not, sharing it is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wowinsider.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!

Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. We prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. And, please, no more sunsets! Unless it's a sunset over Arthas's grave.
