    World of Warcraft rant

    I understand completely. Im actually surprised these problems happened now rather than at launch. Given the fact that there are soo many exisiting Warcraft III and Diablo clans, as well as groups migrating from other MMOs, Blizzard would have seen that some servers would get really...

    World of Warcraft rant

    Well Ive been playing since Dec 6..on Llane. Its a low to medium population server. Ive had about 3 really bad distruptions. Two caused log in to go wonky for about an extra hour and the other was around Christmas when alot of the servers went down for the better part of a day. I am really...

    WoW--What's all the hype about?

    Im playing a dwarf paladin; on my server in dwarf lands I see quite a few warriors mostly dwarf but other Alliance races too. By far Hunters and warlocks seem to be most popular. I actually love my pally and the whole seal/aura thing. Im currently 12 and still soloin; in most games thats when...

    WoW--What's all the hype about?

    Well I broke down and got WoW. I blame you here at ENWOrld and your incessant peer pressure :). Actually I decided for the first time to wait and not jump at launch. So, if you run into a Tauren druid on Llane name Shawati feel free to say hi.

    Enterprise 12-03-04

    Well put. Coto is giving pretty good stories and staying within Trek conventions. Like Brown Jenkin siad he's even cleaned up the messiness of non Vulcan Vulcans. So maybe well see the beginnings of the Earth/ Romulan war? Neato.

    Recommend a Rice Cooker?

    Possibly my weirdest post at ENWorld, but.... Given the large cross section of people around the world on these boards, I thought I'd give it a shot. I need a recommendation for a new "fuzzy logic" rice cooker. I currently have a an older Zojurishi 3 cup cooker/warmer, with the one button...

    WoW--What's all the hype about?

    Ahh you beat me to it. The money investment in MMOs is something I got tired of. I have high hopes for Guild Wars. It looks to me more of a MMO lite, more Diablo like game. Its geared more toward competitve gameplay, but I love the game concepts the devs are coming up with. Ok end of...

    Playstation 3 w/ Blu Ray reading technology

    I agree. The major movie studios have always balked at formats like VHS and DVD. Hollywood and TV wanted the VCR outlawed in its infancy over piracy fears. They didnt like the DVD for piracy etc.. they wanted DVD to be a limited use item that only allowed a few viewings before it went inert. And...

    What is the best "bad" ending you've seen/read? [Spoilers abound]

    Ok I didnt read the whole thread but I always liked the end to the original Get Carter with Michael Caine. The ending isnt too much of a surprise I guess, but its quite different from the later Sly Stallone remake. On a related note the end of the Steve McQueen movie The Sand Pebbles always...

    Playstation 3 w/ Blu Ray reading technology

    Ahh but the plot thickens!! HD DVD gets three big studios to line up behind it: http://dvd.ign.com/articles/569/569217p1.html Also it seems weird that the PS3s chip is being developed by Sony, Toshiba, and IBM. However, Toshiba and Sony are rivals in the HD-DVD/Blu-Ray format fight. Aint...

    Conan Challenge

    A side question. I ve googled, but what is the relationship if any between wandering star and dely rey? I know that Wandering star has the rights. Their books seem to be a bit pricey for me. Does dely rey have a deal with them or the REH estate? As a follow up, any other del rey trade...

    Battle for Middle Earth: RTS on the PC

    Ditto. Although my gaming schedule is maxed out, what with Half Life 2, Metal Gear Solid 3, Metroid Prime 2 all on my play lists. This fall/winter has been brutal; but in a good way. But heres hoping the game plays a good as the spectacle it presents. And while it is an RTS, I hope it stays as...

    Playstation 3 w/ Blu Ray reading technology

    Not surprisong I guess since Sony is one of the many corporations in favor of Blu Ray. Such a statement is "preemptive" strike to stake out territory for the future. But Blu Ray sounds cool.. and it will hopefully mean the PS3 will be backwards compatible.

    The Six Million Dollar Man...comedy??

    Ahh yes. Hollywood cant think of anything original, or rather is afraid to give new ideas a chance. So it seems we'll get a "reimagining" of a low quality 70s series..again. I actually think Jim Carrey's talented-its just to bad he cant get (or pick) material that will let him strech himself more.

    More Trek rumors- perhaps the "Why the heck the Klingons look different" problem may be resolved in Enterprise?... http://trekweb.com/articles/2004/11/24/41a4a3d824586.shtml
