Thnx to your info, WoW is sounding good. I think I may give the free trial a shot. I was looking at some of the books at half prc bks the other day. It looks overwhelming to a newbie. LOL
I love the idea that I can get what I need to play, in game. That makes the fee not so bad. Will still be cheaper than the game I was playing.
I enjoy doing quests, or hired services. Im not into PvP. very much. Ususally do only whats needed to lev or acquire something needed. Unless Im hired. LOLLOL

If you're not into PvP, make sure to pick a PvE realm. Or RP. Or "Normal" I think even. Suddenly I can't remember what all they call them but choose one that isn't PvP.

On PvE servers, you can flag yourself for PvP if you choose but you have to specifically activate that option. On PvP servers, after level 10 you are auto flagged pretty much any time you're out in the world.

I'm really glad that we picked a PvE server the first time or we probably wouldn't have kept playing. I go through phases where I do a lot of battlegrounds but I really don't like world PvP.

Ok, that may be the deciding factor to tip me over to WoW. LOL
I love being able to choose about PvP. I dont mind it if its an arena type thing. I just get tired of logging on and finding that Ive been given multi beat downs daily. All your gold is gone, weapons and armor damaged. Then you gotta waste time and money redoing it all.
Or the vendettas where whole grps hit you, bc someone let them know your stats, or you are holding $$ you cant bank bc you are logged off. Thats not battle, those are cheap shots. I have done arena and that was cool. Then it really is about the best fighter, not just about who spent the most money. LOL

Just got chewed up by zombies on COD Black Ops. Can't make it past round 3.

I enjoy games anywhere from RPG's, shooters, action, wrestling and survival horror.

I just started the game "Alan Wake" on Xbox 360. Anybody play this one?

atomiczombie · 06-12-2011, 07:42 PM

I'm not as much a shooter fan as I was when I was younger. I like role playing games. I have played Fable 2, star wars the force unleashed, and right now I am playing Fallout 3 on my 360.

What is Alan Wake like TCB? I've never heard of it.

I never really got into Fable, but I've got the new one on my Game Q anyway through gamefly. I loved the Star Wars Unleashed, I can't wait to play Unleashed II.

Alan Wake was a trip. It was kind of like a survival horror game without so much gore. It had a bit of a silent hill vibe, but trippy in it's own way. I only got through the first few levels until my ADD kicked in and I was ready to play something else. It has a great storyline though and graphics are excellent.

Any thoughts on the new Wii system coming out next year?

I was watching the E3 coverage on gamespot.com and G4 tv. The Wii U is an odd device to say the least. No more motion gaming? Or does that involve motion gaming somehow? That wasn't clear to me. And the tablet, I can see where maybe driving games or platformers might fit with it, but it's not clear how that is going to work with games like shooters and action/adventure rpgs. They didn't do an in depth demo with a game that is coming out for it at E3 so that could have been done better.

I was disappointed that Microsoft did most of their E3 presentation on games for the Kinect. Not everyone (moi included) is so hot on the Kinect, so we were kind of left in the cold. I read on gamespot.com that next E3 they will probably announce the next Xbox, so that will be a lot more exciting.

As for Sony, they put a lot of emphasis at E3 on 3D gaming. That is exciting to me, because I think incorporating 3D into console gaming could take it to a whole new level! However, I don't have the funds to buy a PS3 any time soon, and I like the Xbox exclusive games more than the PS3's exclusives. I also hate their controller. The Xbox controller is much more ergonomic. They also put a lot of emphasis on the new PS Vita hand held. It looks cool, but I am not really into handheld gaming at this point. But I don't have a smartphone either (I have a dumb phone

) so if I ever get one that might change.
