    I dilly around with Guild Wars right now....and played Dark Age of Camelot for a few years until I felt I'd done all I could do with that one. But never had any interest in trying WOW.

    WoW is about the only interesting MMORPG out right now. I just started up playing it again from taking a break. And yes, I have a toon named "Vomitore" :D

    My wife and I play, well she plays more than I do usually since I involve myself in projects. She played DAOC for like 5yrs...I got her into and it was cool at first...WoW has much better dynamics but isn't perfect. The detail is just awesome in game on my laptop with the nvidia 7900GTX

    Yeah I'd like to upgrade my comp a lil bit. But it's always been a good computer. Making your own PC IMO is still better then buying pre-made. I only play WoW only cause I first started MMO's with Star Wars Galaxies. Unfortunately if you played SWG pre-cu then you know the state that game is in now. :( WoW is fun, but the leveling is what kills me.

    I do alot of PC builds for home users and the ones we use at home. (I fix PC's and network issues for a living) Well accept for this gaming laptop that I won this summer...WOOT! Still hard to believe I won a laptop of this caliber that retails for upwards of $3k Anyways ya I've done my time in differen't mmo betas and what not. There's actually a couple I'm waiting to see if I get into, one was LOTR related and can't remember the other... Don't worry about leveling in WoW, I've played since day one (beta also) and my first character is STILL not lvl 60. I should word that differently...I haven't literally played since day one but I started the subscription that day. Now that my wife is into it we each have a character we only play together, so now I have wopping TWO characters! while she already has 3-4.


    P.S. I hate the word toon in reference to WoW as much as its used LOL!

    What's scary is I started a TOON (heh) on a 2 week old server, and there's people already a few levels short of lev 60. How do they do it? I have NO clue. The new Phantasy Star looks somewhat decent. I gotta see it in person before I go out and just buy it. It comes out in 4 days actually. My main problem with WoW is there's not many classes you can be. That's what I loved about SWG. Well, pre-cu SWG. Now it's only 9 professions. :(

    i've never played WOW , but i have been seriously thinking about trying it . i used to be real big into d&d back in the late 70's and still like that type of game . i play runescape and actually enjoy that even though the graphics arent that good and i'm sure its pretty basic compared to other games out there .

    Wow has a new expansion coming out in Nov and with South Park basing an episode around it, WoW is gonna get some serious boost in accounts.

    The expansion should be pretty awesome...might even get me back into playing steadily again for a while! I hear ya on the power level people...its really nuts and I don't know how they can enjoy the game playing that way...or maybe its that they enjoy it (aka adicted) to much and have played for days and days straight.

    Yeah, leveling in that game sucks. That's my main problem.

    I played for two months, not straight through, but maybe ten hours a week, and only got to level 15... and I have to agree with you about the lack of classes, definite bummer.

    One game I've never gotten into is EQ...I tried the demo of the new EQ, absolutely disliked it.

    Yeah, EQ was a major yawn. I tried it, and was SOOOOOO bored with it.

    I hate grouping to. That's why I liked SWG. I could solo anything with my templates.

    Re: World of Warcraft
    I can agree, seems grouping with a good set of players who are focused on the mission is more rare than common. I guess that's kinda why I haven't played my main so much now that my wife plays. At first untill she got into the controls and what not is was little frustrating (given) but now she plays more than me and any time I play its with our matched characters that we only use when playing together.

    I haven't gotten to play WoW yet. I am considering trying it though. I have played Final Fanasy XI though. (Don't hit me, LOL.) I haven't been on it in a few months though. We had to temp. downgrade from cable to dial up. :c(

    I just got this the other day, been playing my night elf hunter and been having fun soloing around. I didn't mine grouping in guild wars, but I don't really look foward to doing it in WOW.

    I have yet to find a group where once they get their part of the mission done will they leave the little guys to fend for themselves. Plus I just love how people all roll "need" for everything makes it really hard to get anything decent when you can get on a run.

    I mostly stick to my t4c now least I know if someone irrataes me there finding them and killing them comes with ease :sabduel:

    On WoW I'm a lev 60 warlock and I can solo pretty much anything. But the only bad part is to take down a lev 60 elite can take a lot of my mana so I have to eat in between kills. But luckily I have an insanely high crit rate and my highest crit is 2804 on a lev 62 elite. I use my 60 rogue for loot soloing on regular lev 60 non-elites.

    Horde of course. Plus being undead they are the most metal of all toons on WoW. Eespecially when they do their dance. Plus the 300% longer breathing underwater on my rogue helps me for looting underwater.

    It's too bad Burning Crusade was pushed back again, but from what I hear about the beta testing, it's nowhere near ready for release.

    I was looking at WoW today & nearly bought it , but when i was playing EVE i liked how the pvping was in real time instead of having to go into a seperate server also EVE was worldwide , WoW only allows me to join up on european servers only...which put me off :/
    im still in two minds about buyin it as ive heard its really good :confused:
