Beating WoW At Its Own Game 383
The BBC has up a short piece on the hopes of game developers and investors to 'beat World of Warcraft'. Representatives for the upcoming Age of Conan, recently-released Lord of the Rings Online, and Star Wars Galaxies all discuss what it's like competing in a post-WoW world. Funcom game director Gaute Godoger has a point when he says, "The industry so needs competition to World of Warcraft ... We need other strong games that can make people understand that there's more to it than WoW." The article discusses some of the features each of these games offer that differ from WoW, and theorizes a bit on where the MMOG genre will go next.

Haven't seen Vanguard, but have you seen Guild Wars? The females in GW are very well-proportioned and well-animated. GW may have the highest 'pixellated boobie rating' of any MMOG out there, with excellent and attractive character designs.
This is important if, like me, you choose your character build based on what kind of backside you want to watch running across the landscape for hours on end.

i don't like that logic, it makes it sound like it's my fault... i much prefer arguments that leave me blameless and say that there is nothing wrong with me.

You might want to cancel the 3.4.10 patch. That's all I'm going to say.
