With just one month left until the controversial release of Blizzard's fourth World of Warcraft installment, a handful of in game cinematics unravel the mysteries surrounding the mists of Pandaria. Although the franchise has been ridiculed for its introduction of the pandaren race, it looks as though there may be more to this expansion than sunshine and jolly kung fu pandas.
Check out a few of the cinematics below, and let us know what you think!

azraa Me neither man. I've played since TBC and the whole Pandaria Lore is just awesome for me, seriously.Reply
But since they changed the talent trees in Cata, I lost intereset. A lot. The game has no more calculations or actual thought involved in tactics and stat researching. -
nforce4max Old news, I play on one those "other" servers and these were already leaked out last week or so. I personally think MoP is crap due to how they scrapped the talent trees down enough to even a toddler could play. As for other things I am almost convinced that this will be the last expansion for the game given how badly Blizz has done with cata and how much worse mop will be. So I am expecting that a lot will either quit the game for good or go to a TBC or wotlk p.server.Reply -
I played WoW when it first came and played all vainilla content but blizz destroyed the community. This expansion is a joke, kung-fu panda + pokemon..... no thanks.Reply
Im waiting for Guild Wars 2 which will bring a fresh perspective without WoW problems. -

One word "AdBlock" -
razor512 cinematics look good but in the actual gameplay the combat is boring, attacks with a sword are basically the character doing the same swinging motion over and over (not even touching the enemy) and the enemy life bar going down slightly each time as the only reaction to the hit.Reply
it is basically the combat system of the pokemon games for the gameboy but with slightly better animation.
