For the uninitiated, Peggle is a hybrid of pinball and Plinko from The Price is Right, and one of the most enthralling games I've played in my life. The oddly compelling mixture of skill and luck has you plunk a ball into a grid of pegs, wiping out each one it hits as it bounces toward the bottom of the screen.
GameSpot was one of the gaming sites that flagged down the freebee:
Cocreated with Blizzard Entertainment, the new stand-alone game boasts 10 franchise-themed levels with backgrounds sketched by Blizzard artists. Players can follow Peggle protagonists Bjorn the Unicorn and Splork as they confront Azeroth's most infamous inhabitants. Many of the edition's challenges and scenes have WOW-themed names, such as "Pwnxia," "Phat Lewtz," and "The Traitor King."
I don't think I'll be partaking, only because versions of Peggle already suck all my time away on the Xbox 360 and DS. If I had allowed Peggle: World of Warcraft Edition onto my laptop, odds are I wouldn't have gotten around to tapping out this post for another several weeks.

those fiends!
With that consumerist logic, no one is AGAIN allowed to say Best Buy is awful after only ONE bad experience. You must shop there constantly, and only then can you say it's a bad store if EVERY experience is bad.
]]>I also dont own the Orange Box.
]]>I ended up downloading it on Xbox Live, the only game I've bought on there, and ho-boy, it sure is addicting. I've spent two five hour chunks of time playing it since I got it (two weeks ago), not to mention many other smaller ventures.
It's an amazing(ly addictive) game.
]]>@Nixi: When my friend and I got WoW peggle I think for a week solidwe were standing around orgrimmar or a tthe flight path landings for way too long competing. I won.

<-- For those interested. :]
It's ironic because the cure for my fever is actually more fever.
]]>Plinko from the Price is Right is actually taken from a long standing Japanese gambling/prize game called "Pachinko"

@NICU: I also love Bloons Tower Defense 1-3, a lot of fun and good for time wasting
]]>@Myotheralt: haha nicely played
]]>@CFinWV:

It's clever because every time you complete a board you get a talent point to help you with future peggling! Oh and if you are the group leader, you can set it to have a peggle shoot off to win the loot!
]]>... Yes I am that cheap.
]]>I still play the Peggle version I got for free off of Steam. Don't know what game its tied to, but its got Portal and TF2 references in it.
Its addicting as hell.
I have the Half Life Peggle and it rocks! This is great!
]]>@Nixi: I believe it is. My boyfriend is obsessed with this game.
]]>Is this the same as the add-on in WoW?
It automatically pops up during a flight path... if you aren't using your flying mount or are waiting for a group/raid to assemble it kills the time perfectly.
