When does the WoW open beta start and is that open for everyone? I'd like to give it a chance, but I'm not really a big Warcraft fan, it's mainly the "cartoony" style that doesn't really appeal to me.
I tried a bit of Guild Wars this weekend, made by a team of ex-Blizzard employees. Looks very promising too.
What games are you looking forward to the most?

Games like this that host thousands of players per server could not exist on the initial price of the game itself. The bandwidth costs alone would use up all that revenue and then some, not to mention paying all those people to develop the game.Siegfried Schaüffen wrote:that's one of the reasons why i quitted Ultima Online.GM Joker wrote:Blizzard hasn't put a price on it yet, but more than likely it'll be about $15.00USD per month.
I hate this idea. you already pay for a game then you have to pay again and again.
that's why in part, i haven't bought and hence played Star Wars Galaxy: an empire divided even though i'd liket to play it a lot.
if the WoW will follow this system, i'm not sure i'm gonna play except if it is exceptionnal (i'm sure it is hearing GM Joker talked about it just make me have the taste of it)...
Side note, last year (maybe the year before that) video games surpassed box office movie sales in gross revenue.

Hello everyone! It's nice to stop by and see all the Dasarians. I'm enjoying WoW very much!.(Stress test) I can't get over the fact that you don't even pay attention to XP gain because you're having so much fun.
Peace is only a break between wars....
