New York City's Times Square is famous for its midnight countdowns, so it seemed to be a natural place to stage one of the biggest launch events ever. And it's only a matter of time before we hear about all the one-day records Wrath of the Lich King has shattered, and we wanted to bring you a piece of that living history that you can watch from the warm comfortable confines of your own room.

It's all about the fans, too. Ten Ton Hammer's Garrett Fuller works the crowd, first talking to Walter, Pete, and Tom and the front of the line (who had been waiting for 24 hours for the privilege), starting a little Horde vs. Alliance ruckus mid-line, chatting with the fine folks at NYC WoW Meet Up, talking to two of the Blood Elf beauties (not necessarily known for their conversational abilities), and as the clock approaches midnight, we bring you all the action as the first players in North America are finally allowed to make their purchase. See it all in this ten minute video!
