Take A Video Tour Of WoW's Cataclysm

Blizzard hacked together this cinematic flythrough of the post-Shattering World of Warcraft and next week's impressive expansion environment. On the fence about re-subbing for Cataclysm? This may be the push you're looking for.

I can attest from personal experience that zones like the newly flooded Thousand Needles and earthquake-riven Westfall are some of the best work Blizzard has ever done. It's still WoW, no doubt, but leveling through the new zones is a great way to remind yourself why you fell in love with the game in the first place.

Cataclysm is going to take it to yet another level. Speaking for myself, Tuesday can't come soon enough. Then again, I am a huge nerd, so that's not entirely unexpected.
