NEW! Wrath of the Lich King! (October 3)   NEW! Project Lore Episode 10.5
@Liman01:

Phantasy Star Online: for Dreamcast (loved the game but became boring after about a few months, best console MMO I've played)

Every time I walk through Best Buy or Future Shop, I happen on Phantasy Star.  I've read some reviews on it and it seems like another grinder game, but I like some of the features it has.  Not sure still, but would you recommend it at all?  I know you said best console MMO and there is a PC version. 

@bananaz:

From what someone told me today over a million people were in the Beta (of AoC).

Seems like the preview for this game was quite hyper.  Great graphics, beautiful ever-changing environment, interesting game play, etc.  I might give it a try.  That or I can save up for a Fallout 3 Collector's edition - huge fan of Fallout series. 

Though I'm thinking that Warhammer Online is probably like a 'mature' version of WoW in terms of story board (which it is) and the feel of the game.  I might give that a try too.

@Gnomoli5:

I used to play Toontown ya i know

It's all good.  I used to play Furcadia.  You know?  It's about fuzzy animals in clothes that walk on their hind legs and interact with people via role playing.  I think Toontown is cooler though. 

@butterhead:

I have only played wow and I am thinking, why try anything else?

WoW, like other games after awhile gets boring.  Sometimes, I want a little bit of action.  Sometimes, I want a more in-depth role playing game.  Sometimes, I want gorgeous scenery while doing battle with an enemy fleet amongst a massive armada of Minmater warships. 

^_^

@madrushian:

have you ever seen the movie:  Wing Commander?

I was totally and utterly disappointed at the movie.  I remember before it came out, everyone was hyping on it.  It was like "It's based on the game!"  We should have known better, but come on - it was based on the game!  ^_^

So we watched it and half way through, people in the audience were making fun of the scenes - the super cheesy lame ass scenes.  Man, that was...  Yeah.

That part about the landing strip totally did not make sense.  I remember my friend saying "WTH?!?!  IT'S IN SPACE!  WHY DO YOU NEED TO LAND LIKE THAT?!?!?"  Hahaha!

That thing about sound - you're completely right!  We were like "Excuse me?  Sound through space?  How the hell does sound travel through nothing?"

Ah sheesh.  A great game turned into a terrible movie.  I hope if they ever make a Starcraft or a Warcraft movie, it won't turn out to be crap.
