    Who's getting a PSP?

    I'll definitely be picking one up, though I haven't pre-oredered yet. There are some launch titles that interest me (Darkstalkers, Metal Gear Acid, and Untold Legends) but none of those are in the "ooo, gotta have it now" category for me, so I might wait a bit before grabbing one.

    ENWorld women

    Well, guess it's not too late for another woman gamer to stand up and be counted. I'm Chris. From New Jersey. Computer Programmer. No degrees. I currently play in five campaigns (2 homebrews and one Planescape using 3.5 rules, one homebrew using D20 modern, and one Marvel game set in Paragon...

    What's your screenname mean?

    Same old "needed a screenname and didn't want a bunch of numbers." I was in computer school at the time, and was just learning Java. I figured I had a long way to go before I could call myself a jedi though, so padawan it was. It has the added benefit of being somewhat unique as well... I have...

    [OT] What is your current desktop wallpaper?

    At home I usually use in-game screenshots from whatever game I'm currently playing... these days that would be World of Warcraft. At work I have this kinda creepy looking screenshot from Silent Hill 4. Keeps the co-workers away. :)

    World of Warcraft rant

    As Thanee and KenM mentioned, soloing is definitely doable, probably more so than any other MMO I've played, including City of Heroes, especially if you play a hunter. I've levelled my troll hunter up to 32 solo, and have never had to group out of necessity to finish a quest. On the few...

    [World of Warcraft] Enduring Nobility is up and running!

    I'd be very interested in joining as well, though I need to make a character on Feathermoon. Is there anything you are particulary lacking class or skill wise that I should lean towards?

    Who's still playing City of Heroes?

    I still play CoH at least a few times a week, on those nights when I don't feel like playing WoW. :) Now, I'm really loving WoW, but it hasn't killed my appetite for CoH for a couple reasons. For one, it seems to me that the player base in CoH is a lot friendlier... of course, maybe that's just...

    World of Warcraft rant

    At one point while trying out different classes I had roughly 20 characters spread over 3 servers, so it must have changed. I think the limit is somewhere around 8-10 per server rather than per account. I too have been lucky enough to have few problems with logging on and lag, even on Silver...

    City of Heroes Roll Call! (Updated September 18)

    Poll: What Kind of Pet Person Are You?

    Not at all. It's been roughly four years since I had to give up my Louie due to an unexpected move, and I still miss him like the dickens. :(

    City of Heroes

    Another note about the invisibility stuff... I did read somewhere that the CoH team plans on adding some mission types in which stealth will play a more prominent role. I'm not sure if they were referring to the upcoming patch or a more distant future goal, though. On an unrelated note, Super...

    ENWorld Photoshop Challenge: Hate of d02

    Infomercial soon to follow. It's a little clunky, but hopefully worth a smile.

    Horizons

    Actually, I've been toying with giving the free trial a spin, but keep putting it off, partly because of the rather lukewarm reviews I've read. The idea of playing a dragon is rather intriguing, however. What do you think of it?

    Games ENWorlders play

    I have a lunchbox of card games I usually bring to non-D&D get togethers. In the lunchbox are: Grave Robbers from Outer Space (and its sequels, Cannibal Pygmies in the Jungle of Doom and Kung-Fu Samurai on Giant Robot Island), Once Upon a Time, Munchkin, and Dungeoneer. Other friends usually...
