the only other MMO out there worth playing is WoW, the rest are so niche that the playerbase is next to nothing, unless you want to play one of them Cash shop ones where you have to grind for 187 levels unless you want to blow a ton of money of items to reduce the grind to 186 levels. Not to mention the reduced quality of most of em.
EQ and EQ2 are going to have their die hards, but the game isn't going to be accessible to a lot of people who want to start now.

first off it takes more then 5 minutes to install, and patch so your guide is wrong.
gear is going to come from crafting, you're not just going to walk into a dungeon and 10 minutes later be decked out in purple gear, depending on what class you are you can always make your own gear by going with clothcraft,leather working or armorer. Yes its not easy, you don't just click the "i want to be good" button and bam you're jumping around with HQ gear.
go to each city, get the teleport points and look around in the market wards for gear.
the biggest problem for SE is not the MMO aspect is that western reviews are going to try to compare it to WoW. This game isn't wow, its designed with the story in mind, its designed to play with friends and actually challenge you and not just throw epics at you. Honestly its come a long way since even the open beta, its great to play, the lag is barely present even in populated areas, crafting is fun, although it can just piss you off sometimes, but its quite rewarding.

don't you think the bank would question where the gold bars are coming from, you'd be arrested, violated, violated again by the cops, not fun.
jk jk, people are getting upset because MSFT gives vague statements, they don't show much game play, and more and more publications are criticizing it.
it would suck to spend 150 take it home and have a bad experience because your house just doesn't let you enjoy it. we'll see when it comes out, bu...
so you need to have a clear gaming space, it shouldn't be too much of a problem for a supermom family where her house is spotless and her kids are so castrated they don't move, but we all know that if your friend gets this and you're over there you will do all you can to cause him/her grief. Yelling pause, waiving your arms, throwing a cat/dog/fish/bird/human at TV, running in front of him/her butt naked.
In all honesty i want to see what this has to offer in ter...
actually Elephants try to avoid stepping on stuff, back during the Carthage vs Rome days Romans figured out that if they make a clear path for the elephants they would take that rather then running over Roman soldiers, thus making the elephants have no impact.
if they wanted to prove that elephants are afraid of mice vs using an alternate route they need to do more like use different living rodents, such as chipmunks and guinea pigs and also making it so that the elephant on...
also anyone notice this article is a bit bias they have videos of Kinect but not of Move you'd think they would have present both.
so let me get this straight...
MOVE which has been shown to work, has been shown it can be used in casual games, family games and hard core games is bad and sucks
while Kinect which has been shown to not work, and have very very little appeal to hardcore gamers and only offers a small spectrum of variety that doesn't include waving your arms like a moron is awesome.
yes you are right...
the beta is good, pace of combat is great and you get to control it with the stamina gauge, the gameplay is great the issues are the interface and it feels a bit slow specially the crafting. Crafting it self is great as you get to have more control then just click this here x amount of times. also you have to discover recipes they aren't just given to you which can be a headache but there is a db website up that is keeping track of that.
for a beta the game is fun, yes it...
Grindfest my ass Guild Leaves allow you to level faster, they already stated that they will reduce the cooldown, also you can do them with friends to make them last more.
Sometimes i think people miss what MMO stands for.
SE confirmed at the pre-release party that they are going to improve the UI and also add a hardware mouse which is a big gripe people have. This is for the release which is in like a week for CE.
the game has a great class development system and the code is going to get better, while by no means is it a WoW friendly UI its very playable.
the issues it has are going to be ironed out as the game progresses and don't say that it needs to be done before relea...
Insomniac is going to deliver a gem on the 360, sad to see them go multi plat mainly because now they have to work on more game and less time to work on ps3.
I'd like to see them take a stab at an RPG
I love how square released games like Star Ocean and Infinate Undiscovery and such on only the 360 to this day in Japan they sold like what 800k combined, while they left the PS3 out to dry, now in 4 days they sell 2 times as many copies of one game on ps3, then all the copies of jrpgs on 360 combined to date.
HERE IS A TIP SE PS3 IS WHERE YOU SHOULD BE RELEASEING JRPGS SINCE THATS WHERE YOU BUILD UP YOUR BRAND THE MOST, WITH PS1 PS2 AND NOW PS3
in US you can select ps3 or pc from the list
Before Kratos Dante used to be the bad A$$ then Kratos came and was just a step up, no idea if Bayonetta is a good game or not haven't played it yet, but it has some massive shoes to fill if you're going to compare it to God of War.
We will see when both our out, but my money is on God of War given how the last two games were amazing.
So if they make the PSN version cheaper whats to stop the people from just downloading it and not buying UMD's? rather then make the game cheaper on PSN.
The biggest hurdle the Go faces isn't software or tech its stores, as the shift to DD represents a threat to stores like GS and Walmart (at least for walmarts game department) This is whats keeping DD on shelves because companies like Sony can't step on their toes.
There are other things that could happen, say if y...
Gotta say i agree with you, we need to give it more time to see how this really turns out if its a major problem or just a launch issue. My wife just got a new laptop with Win 7 and i think its great my self even tho i use Linux, Win 7 has some great features and is quite fast.
People give it a bit more time before jumping on the crusade.

the reason office is on Mac is to sell more units, why limit your self to only windows users when you can do mac as well, there is no linux version because people that use linux use open office which is the standard for linux.
If people are willing to buy it why not make it.
All the Fable games looked interesting while Molenux was talking about them, then they come out and it ends up being a bore, i tried so hard to like 2 and it was awful.
