What I Like About World of Warcraft
August 02, 2006
So, I thought about something today. I keep going back to World of Warcraft as my MMORPG of choice. I thought deeply on the subject and came back to one very clear reason. You see, I enjoy humor. I like Cartooney things. Give me a choice and I'll watch a random anime over any live-action television fare any day. My love of things that are caricatures is high. All of the other MMORPGs out there don't strive to be fun caricatures. They strive to be serious, dirty and hard ordeals filled with detail. I don't really like that. I love the fact that you can wander through the Undercity and see an undead zombie headbanging. It just makes it that much more fun. When I tune out, and want a break... I don't really want to enter a dark world of high fantasy and breath-taking realism online... I just want to have fun. WoW delivers.
Don't get me wrong though. My love of online FPS filled with detail is only surpassed by my suckage at them. I have some magic statistical ability that draws great players to the servers that I play on. I can rig those statistics if I play with physical people, but once I go online - the ethereal quality of the internet delivers the best players to stick their bullets in my head before I even buy my weapons. I mean, perhaps my infobahn pipes are clogged... but I think not.

Good Gaming Fun
July 29, 2006
Well, we had our fun at James'. We played a nice four hour stint of Diablo II and made our way to rescuing Cain. Good fun. We also had some tasty chinese food at Wandering Gardens; god I love pot stickers. I'm also astounded that James doesn't have A/C. I think his upstairs was around 90F. His downstairs wasn't terrible, but damned was I sweaty when we were finished. I'm hoping once to get in some nice long gaming session though. Hopefully soon.
On another note, it's CATURDAY! Few shall understand that reference... the rest should not wish to know.

4 More Days to Gaming
July 25, 2006
So there's only 4 more days until Andy and I drive to James' for some LAN fun. I'm looking forward to getting in a full night of gaming, which is something that we haven't done for a long while. Hopefully being far away from babbles will let me play a little bit longer. ;p
We're probably going to be kicking it with some NeverWinter Nights. Any other suggestions from people?
