Obviously the numbers will fluctuate up and down. even if it was only half of that, that's still an obscene amount of players and revenue.

It's been a while since the 11M announcement. There had been pretty wide speculation their numbers were actually starting to come down some -- so much for that idea...

WOW is probably the only MMO that's actually worth 15 dollars a month.
I think you mean EVE
EVE is for people who enjoy spreadsheets and space.

Here's a thought for you...
How many people are working at Blizzard who have been there since before WoW was released (Nov. 2004) and are not independently wealthy? I'll bet the answer is dozens if not 100s. That would annoy the living hell out of me, especially with an idiot like Kotick making over $100M in exercised options this year...

Obviously WoW has peaked. Thank God.
