Fire, Flee, Foes, Escape!

I kinda want one, but not badly enough to wait in line in the rain/cold for 10 minutes, let alone 8 hours. I'm just excited to see a lot of disappointed people, a lot of clamoring, pushing, and shoving, and a couple of servers being knocked down by the online rush. Nothing like a little good, ol'-fashioned, human-caused chaos. Do games teach violence? Can't wait to see how this weekend compares to your average soccer riot.

Wild, Wild WoW

I overheard one of the network guys at work claiming that subscribing to World of Warcraft has really saved him a lot of money. His gaming budget used to be $3000 a year, now he's only spending $200 on the subscription plus the occasional single player game here and there.
Yet another reason why I should join.


P.S. When is Wired going to stop talking about Second Life already?

Update

Work is slow, so I've decided to contribute to society. Let the felons clean the highways; I've turned to blogging and joining SourceForge. I'll write more about the projects I'll be working on as soon as they take off. I am now what I always was, a hacker.
