    im getting wow

    1) The alliance doesn't have the shaman. :eek: Plus a soulstone is more powerful than the shaman ability (restores more health and mana instantly, more frequently, castable on anyone, etc) 2) Nope, they teleport 3) At lvl 60 if a priest is doing anything but healing usually the main tank and...

    im getting wow

    1) Soulstones are an anti-wipe measure during raids. They are invaluable and are only on a 30 minute timer. 2) Summoning. Getting 15+ people to do a raid on UBRS isn't an easy task. Summoning helps you spend less time waiting and more time killing 3) Debufs/DoTs (Damage over Time) - These...

    Macrosoft ?

    Heya sprafa. Long time no see :) I don't like Microsoft or Macrosoft. I think they should change their name to the "Borg Corporation". Now tell me that wouldn't be pimp to work for a place with that name.

    3Gb/s SATA???

    Its called future proofing. It also drains the wallets from hardware geeks so Asus can stay in business :D Seriously the next spec of SATA has some new features that can help speed up harddrives a bit more without resorting to faster rotational speeds and larger caches (though both of those...

    Monitors

    We need to know what - Size monitor you are looking for - The price range you have - Are you willing to consider CRT or is it just LCD General rules of thumb - Smaller dot pitch usually means a better picture quality - You want your primary resolution to have a refresh rate of 85 Hz...

    im getting wow

    1) You cannot take over towns. What happens is the raid happens and you make an initial push into the town. What happens is that more people of the opposite side come to defend the town and the NPC town guards start respawning at a faster rate. The longest I've ever been in a raid to hold a...

    WoW or EQ2?

    I haven't bought another Computer Game since WoW. If I didn't buy WoW I would have bought atleast one other computer game (since WoW's release). The price of buying a computer game is the price of a 3 month subscription to WoW. Not a drain on the wallet. ;)

    Another Genius Appointment By Bush

    If you look historical at the stance the US has taken on such organizations as NATO, UN, and League of Nations, it has always been a negative one. The US constitution prohibits us from being controlled by someone outside of the president, congress, and the judicial system. There have been very...

    DOOM III story

    Point. Counter point - What was the purpose of the citadel? The G-Man? What about the backstory on ant lions? Name one thing that HL2 or even HL introduced that was properly explained in HL2. I'm no idiot, but the only story I saw in HL2 was a group of resistance fighters giving praise...

    DOOM III story

    Let me first say I'm a literate person. I enjoy reading, and most people who play video games do not play video games to read or pay attention. Doom 3 had a wealth of story related information in its PDA's that the vast majority of people neglected. Those PDA's really helped flesh out Doom 3...

    DOOM III story

    Doom 3's story was better than HL2 imo. Which says volumes about the lack of adequate stories in games.

    WoW or EQ2?

    Buyer Beware: WoW is like a new, more potent version of crack cocaine. It will get you hooked. With that said, you can play for an hour and get something done. In the early levels you can level within an hour. It makes the game that much more exciting. WoW seems like the perfect game...

    Unreal engine 3.0, dedicated psychic prosessor card support

    Seems fascinating and quite cool, but there is a problem. Historically there has always been hardware support for new features before any type of software has been able to support these new features. Almost every instance of a new technology in the modern PC has gone from Hardware support to...

    World of WarCraft video: Onyxia slain

    Ragnaros is already in the game. AFAIK the farthest anyone has gotten his health down to is 97%. He supposed to be twice as hard as Oxynia as well. I really want to fight Oxynia just to so I can buy the Tee Shirt and say "been there, done that". Don't care about defeating it, but just...

    Multi-Computer Licenses for AV/Firewall

    Well I've heard of these registration things that products are enabling. I don't want to be caught buying a product for one computer and not being able to install it on all my computers. I don't want that to happen. I'll check out that package you linked. thanks

    Games that you cant "get into"

    Homeworld - I could never get into the game. I tried to love it so very very much Splinter Cell - Can't put my finger on it why I don't like it Warcraft 3 - Such a brutal game. I enjoy strategy games, but it was too much for me General Genre - Hardcore RPG's (ie Baldur's Gate, Arcanum...

    Multi-Computer Licenses for AV/Firewall

    I've finally gotten tired of the constant Norton AV and Zonealarm problems so I'm on the market for AV and a Firewall. The catch is I need a multi-computer license (3 computers) so I can update all my computers. The only company I've found is Trend Micro with their Internet Security (which...

    Your favorite games of all time

    I'm only gonna do a top 10 list for PC Games :) 1) Mechwarrior 2 - The most brilliant game ever. Can't think of a downside to the game besides the fact it won't run on Windows XP. 2) Quake 2 - Railgun + Gibs = Much Fun 3) Diablo 2 - A game that is epic in scope and size 4) Starcraft -...

    Bad idea?

    IIRC Stalin killed around 3 times as many people as Hilter did. The primary difference is that Hilter targeted specific groups of people whereas Stalin pretty much killed anybody who even looked suspicous.

    Bad idea?

    I like your thinking. :) Still a bad idea though.
