    World of Warcraft is a very fun game. it is a game that you walk around and quest and kill diffrent things. But you also get to duel with other people on the game with a character that you have built from the ground up... fun stuff

    I hear a lot of good things about Rome.

    And I have to agree, UT2004 is an awesome multiplayer game, if you like shooters.

    WoW is also cool if you're into RPGs. Though finding a copy right now is a bit of a pain.

    Are you still on Burning Blade. B has a pretty good Horde guild going there. I'm using the name Castor if you wanna look me up.

    Last week they did a pretty extensive server update on some of the servers (less than half I think). I'm not sure what exactly they did but I know there were some issues that Bliz wanted to correct. I had been playing on the Icecrown server for a while, but switched to BurningBlade because of some lag problems. Since switching I have had very few problems with the new server. Since I joined in mid December, there has only been one unscheduled incident when I haven't been able to log on. Blizzard promptly gave everyone an extra day on their accounts because of about 3 hours of downtime. I have been thoroughly happy with the game and have really enjoyed teaming with B and his group. Usually I like to solo through most games but with WoW I have had far more good groups to pay with than bad.

    i'll finish building my new system tonight, so I'll be looking for some new games. I'm sure I'll be playing a lot of HL2 and CS:S , but I'd like to look into some other games. Is BF1942 worth getting now, or should I just wait for the new one that is coming out soon?

    BF1942 is still by far the best multiplayer shooter out, lots of variety of game play.

    The only thing hurting it is that new maps are not easily accessible.

    It's aggravating when the WoW login server goes down. Not only can you NOT play, you can't even log into the forums to tell someone about the problem.

    What's the BBS guild on Burning Blade called? I'll be sure to look out for you guys.


    DaDa - Joint Ops is better than BF1942.

    The guild is Death Train, Castor and I are the only members from the BBS at this time.

    GKar (B) - Undead priest
    Castor - Undead mage

    We have around 13-14 people in the guild so far, and we are mostly in the 17-23 level range.

    I have been very happy with server performance since moving to Burning Blade.

    Death Train. We've only been on the server for a couple of weeks so you should be well above our High level guys (mid 20's)

    My Tauren Shaman is at level 45. I could probably kill you with one hit. :)

    DaDa, check out Joint Ops. It's THE game to play when I'm NOT playing WoW.
