Okay, World of Warcraft fans. The news you've been waiting for is here. The New York Times, of all stodgy places, is reporting.... Draenei, confirmed. And they've got video to prove it.

We'd tell you if the earlier news that the new race was specifically the Draenei-ethnicity The Broken was correct if we could, but the New York Times free links don't appear to be working. Let's just assume so until NYT's Game Blog gets their act together.

You can commence your bitching or adulation in the comments section.
