He misses you too, little Johhny.

Christ, can we get over this yet? He died almost 3 weeks ago... September 11th didn't last this long...

Don't add fuel to the fire Frivolous.

DDO is fucking slick. Everyone should give it a shot, now that it's free. It's refreshingly different from WOW and all of its clones, and is a lot of fun to play.

Get some friends together, get in a party, plug in those headsets for the full voice chat, and go delve into some dungeons - for zero dollars. Can't recommend it enough.

Pretty sure Sept 11th only lasted 24 hours.

Would love to try this, but so far this deal is only for the US.

I enrolled in the beta and installed it last night. I was quite impressed! I'm hoping to hit it up a bit more this weekend to really explore a bit. I first heard about this on the Gamers With Jobs podcast last week - what the producers told them was really intriguing, so far as the pricing structure and what content you can get for free, and what you can't.

For example, the ability to play for free, but buy just a dungeon that you can hop into and play on your own (or with a friend, after you give them your guest pass) - and that dungeon can be played offline if you want, just as if it were a standalone product. It's a pretty ambitious MMO model that they're trying out!

I'll certainly give it a go.

Too bad Ebberron sucks.

What was that? His birthday?

"...you DO know that Guild Wars has ZERO monthly fees, and NO Store and they run their game servers, provide constant updates and have produced several expansions?"

And if you ever played it, you'd know the difference between a free game, and a GOOD game. I'm not saying WoW is the end all be all of MMO's but I make it a point to try out most MMO's and Guild Wars is pathetic in comparison to Monthly Fee MMO's.

I really liked the time I spent playing DDO, and this beta is good, but they need to get over the awful lag hurdles in it. They took all the fun out of the game.
