Burning Crusade Delayed

It's official, the Burning Crusade expansion for World of Warcraft won't be on store shelves for the Christmas season, but will instead arrive in January. The reason given is that Blizzard wants to "extend the closed beta test and further refine the new content that will ship with the game." Blizzard is well known for taking the time they need to get it right, so it's not a big surprise. I think the popularity of this game combined with the Christmas rush would probably have overloaded the servers anyway.
