There are two new commercials for World of Warcraft featuring Mr. T and William Shatner. Mr. T is a "mohawk" warrior and Shatner is a shaman. We have no idea why World of Warcraft needs to be advertised, but if it gives us gems like this -- we'll take 'em!

Both ads can be found after the break and on the WoW site for download. There is also an ad with Verne Troyer (Mini Me) expected in the near future -- we're hoping for something less obvious than him being a gnome. Keep these types of ads coming Blizzard, we know you've got the money.

Poor? Poor??? You think Blizzard don't have a bob or two? C'mon they're selling the equivalent of crack to computer gamers. They charge 1/2 the monthly subscription of something like Sky and need 1/10 of the infrastructure.

Blizzard must be rolling in it...

Or that's he's a 55-year-old cancer survivor. Do not diss the T man, and drink your milk, sucker - maybe you'll look so good at his age.
