A timesink within a timesink, is World of World of Warcraft on the way?

Remember Gems? That game was awesome!

Also, this reminds me of the debacle with Facebook and Scrabbulous. Instead of hiring the guy who made this super popular game to make the Scrabble game, they instead made their own shitty version and yelled at the Scrabbulous guy to take a hike. Of course Parker Brothers is probably run by old farts who don't know what the internet is, but it's nice to see that this worked the way it should have for this dude.

Heh.

Should we not try making the game more engaging rather than giving us something to do when we're bored and waiting on something? =P

Some of the code for a ingame minigame has been in the game client for as long as I can remember....

No, I mean I saw it digging through the client back around mid 2005.

Eh? If I'm recalling correctly this is an addon(which I have no intent on getting) created by the same people who made the Xbox version. Not a Blizzard thing I don't believe.

Its a nice waste of time during flights to play bejeweled instead of stare at a griffon.

That card game is not popular. The only purpose of it is to get booster packs and hope for a loot card that is either a cool illusion, a cool looking mount, or potions. Or sell your loot cards for real money- the mount cards can be bought for an unbelievable price of 300 dollars. I want a cool looking mount, but I cannot even possibly fathom how anyone can justify spending 300 dollars for a video game panther mount no matter how much money you have...

Wasn't there some poker add-on back in the BWL days? I seem to recall it being banned from use during raids.
