ahhhh. why do you hate WoW (besides the community)? I play it here and there, by no means a hardcore gamer anymore...
I used to play EQ, but couldn't get into it... then switched to FFXI and spent many days playing that.... loved my tarutaru RDM. :biggrin: I just don't have time to play like I used to... dedicating 8 hours to playing in groups is not a good thing for my schedule. So, I went to WoW where I can solo and do most quests. Makes me happy that I can play for 30 minutes here and there and actually get somewhere in the game.
Actually I've never even played it but I refuse point blankly to buy a game and then have to pay a monthly fee for it.
Tis why I much prefer Guild Wars. You pay for the game... then no monthy fees... and the graphics beat WoW hands down. Couldn't say about comparing gameplay and community as as stated... never actually played WoW.
weird al is hilarious. his videos for "fat" (m. jackson's "bad" parody), "like a surgeon" (madonna's "like a virgin" parody) and his take on "spam" (r.e.m.'s "stand" parody) are brilliant.
