Blizzard Entertainment is currently hawking Wrath of the Lich King, the World of Warcraft expansion, due out at Christmas, and they've gone all out on the trailer. The beautiful, HD-quality animation is amazing for the MMO genre, and the content is like crack for gamers: a Lich King, a big undead dragon, a voiceover talking about great power, a Soul Calibur-esque flaming sword, and singing to orchestral music in some elvish language. Of course, this is not the quality of art you'll be seeing in the game itself.
