Wrath of the Lich King Recalled for Soundtrack

Posted November 14th, 2008 by RadarX

In a surprising move this week, Activision Blizzard recalled it's entire stock of the incredibly popular World of Warcraft expansion Wrath of the Lich King

Truckloads of Lich King boxes can be seen heading back to Irvine and Blizzard HQ.

Citing background music they felt was inappropriate for the game, a redistribution of the product has begun immediately to meet expected demand.  While there was no official comment from senior management, Ten Ton Hammer proceeded with some investigative reporting to determine the source of the recall.

Included in the background music was a series of Tibetan monks chanting in a monastery.  While many were quiet about the potential cost and reasoning behind the music, a few employees were forward with their opinion.  Lead Designer Jeff Kaplan wasn't pleased at all with the current selection.  "It's offensive to me honestly" he states, "I mean it sounds like a bunch of people burping and talking at the same time.  Hell if I want to listen to that I'll just call up my frat brothers and host a beer pong tournament. Activision Blizzard RULES!" 

Many other employees share Kaplan's feelings, however the Head of Public Relations dismisses these opinions.  Referred to only as Mr. Green and speaking from behind a screen they stated, "Activision Blizzard is in the midst of reprogramming their employees.  Did I say reprogramming?  I of course meant retraining.  Screw this!  I wasn't here and neither were you, understand?"  We'll have more as updates become available.
