World of Warcraft is Free-ish
Activision/Blizzard - as you can see from the image used in this story - is introducing a 'New Age' for World of Warcraft. The massive MMORPG is going free-to-play up to level 20.

Basically, according to Tomshardware:

"Tuesday evening Blizzard revealed that it converted the previous 10- and 14-day demos of World of Warcraft into a pseudo free-to-play MMORPG, throwing the time restrictions out the door and letting new players roam about indefinitely. The news arrives after Blizzard's CEO Mike Morhaime revealed that 600,000 subscribers jumped ship shortly after the release of Cataclysm, possibly due to the "quick consumption" of the expansion."

Once you've decided that you want to dive in full time, you pay $20 for the full game and the Burning Crusade expansion at a discount.
