World of Warcraft Finally Beaten
Date: 3 Dec 2009
For those who don't play, and you know who you are, World of Warcraft released an update a good while ago that added achievements. Yes, like the Xbox Live achievements. Only a whole lot more. 986 to be exact.Why am I bringing this up? Because a dude in Taiwan has mistaken WOW for Pokemon and caught them all. Yup, all 986 achievements in the game are his. Well almost.
Apparently, as reported on MMO-champion.com, he's actually missing the BB King achievement, but due to a bug he was given two achievement points for another achievement. It's a whole big confusing thing, but the point is he's beaten the game. He can finally move on to have a real life again. Cheers to him!
For those wondering, 986 achievements gives you an overall achievement score of 10850. Ha, I beat him with my Xbox Live gamer score of 18485.
So what does this mean for other World of Warcraft players? It means it can be done, you CAN beat this mother of a game, and until you do you just wont be as hardcore as this guy.
But why hasn't he got the last achievement yet? Because it can only be done during WInter Vale, WOW's Christmas. With Christmas coming up he could actually break the game. If that isn't news, I don't know what it.

@alltern8 Me. Though I still have to get to Level 80, lol. I'm the worst WOW player ever. I've been playign on and off since it came out, and my highest character is lvl 39. I introduced my parents to the game, they both have level 80s, and do quests, and shit...but I'm still just lvl 39. I just have too many other games to occupy my time...I have like gaming A.D.D

I really wouldn't attempt to log in at all tomorrow. I'll be leaving it at the very least until 8pm GMT before I even bother - it is going to be manic. Imagine an average WoW patch day, multiply that lag by 1000 then picture Icecrown :)

Ha, funny cause it's true. Just tried to log in, and found a new patch waiting for me :)
Too bad the servers are down.

The sad thing is that Patch 3.3 comes out tomorrow and he will have to do a whole load more to win again :D

He's from Taiwan. I've come to the conclusion that I'll never be able to compete with someone from Taiwan or Korea. They're a league beyond us normal folk. Superhuman.

When WoW achievements were first introduced in the game, I was really motivated to try and do as many as possible. But there are soooo many. I barely made a dent, even with effort, and this guy actually finished them all?! Good grief. I am in awe, really. And maybe a little concerned about whether this guy gets out enough...
