After giving it some though, Blizzard should have pulled a quick one on it's players...retrospectively to let players others' true nature.
With all the stat tracking they're doing now, they should have tracked priests and pallys (and other disease cleaners) efforts to hold back the plague (i.e. cleansed infected players) and also given other players some use effect potions to clean players/npcs (passed out from argent healers).
They should have also tracked the amount of same-faction players you infected, and how many zombies you killed.
After it was said and done, they should have given out honor (or dishonor) titles (like "savior of the plague" or "alliance/horde traitor" to those who participated to make it more meaningful.
Instead, all I got was griefed on my 14 rogue in auberdine for 6 straight hours...and physically locked out of my 70 pally in shat because of the piles of zombies.
They went to great lengths to set up this fiasco, which made PvE servers a pain in the ass for a several days and all I got was some decent armor that won't be worth wearing in two weeks time when the real expac comes out.
Yeah, well I already sold my Wii, and at only a 70 dollar loss, thank god.
I've owned every Nintendo system (less the virtual abomination) available and have always love them. I STILL own a NES, and it works..not that I play it much. But the Wii, to me, has been a great dissapointment. Since I found one in Jan of '07 I bought 3 games.
The waggle is disspointing. The graphics are dissapointing. The lack of decent online is dissapointing. The fact that they're running mad on the equivelant of a high-school popularity contest is dissapointing. At least MS and Sony are attempting to cater to a more mature audience, with more adult themes.
People don't see it...it's just fucking fashion. The Wii is "hip"...and the games, that aren't a re-hash, are marginally more horrible that the stuff on the 360.
p.s. Nintendo, I own an R4 card and will never buy another DS game again.
yeah, i tried the psychonauts demo back in '05...didn't like it then,
i pay for gametap right now, and am currently dual fisting fallout and baldurs gate. no interest in psychonauts.
i couldn't stand the art direction in god of war, and i never finished the first one and refused to play the second one. i feel the same about psychonauts...which is a shame, because i love other games by tim schaffer, esp. monkey island and grimm fandango..
Awesome...I've used all four techniques before; but the final touch on my NES was to insert the cart all the way to the left, press down to seat it and then smack the NES as hard as I could on the left side to slide the cart to the right. Ninja Gaiden was worth the extra work you had to coax from a NES...
