Peggle Hits World of Warcraft with Peggle-based Loot Rolling, Custom Talent Tree

by Nick Breckon, Apr 23, 2009 7:31pm PDT

PopCap today announced the release of its popular casual game Peggle as free add-on for World of Warcraft.

Strangely enough, the Peggle port is rather impressive, including WoW-themed backgrounds and a custom "talent tree" to spec out your Peggle skills.

Left, Peggle in World of Warcraft. Right, a talent tree for a game that requires none.

Also provided is a new "/peggleloot" option, which allows players to "roll" for loot based on the best Peggle shot--a feature truly reinforcing the random nature of Peggle.

Both the Peggle and Bejeweled World of Warcraft add-ons can be grabbed from FileShack.

It's only a matter of time now before we see Blizzard launch 'World of Warcraft: Operating System Edition'
which allows your computer boots straight into WoW as the OS, and if you want to do any other tasks with your PC you have to launch them from inside WoW. Who needs Windows when you can just play Peggle in WoW?

I hope my memory serves me right here, but I seem to remember an outrage going through the WoW Addon community when Blizzards new Addon policy for Wrath of the Lich King was announced.
It was because there was a paragraph in the new policy that said something to the extent of "Blizzard is allowed to use all addons as it would be possible with own intellectual property".

This is obviously aimed at integrating the functionality of some good Addons into the core game, but I wonder how it translates to this.
