World of Warcraft

[Bun-Bun]

Edit: Speaking of corporate greed reminds me of Micro$oft's acquisition. I was keeping track on the unrest within the Asherons Call community about 6 months back. Haven't heard much about that MMORPG lately. Anyone still play it?

I think it's been spun off or repurchased by its creators. AC2 is definitely dead. I wouldn't hold out much hope for AC. OTOH, a couple of my Monday night gaming crew are still into it a bit, although SW:G has taken over much of their time. For that matter, SW:G has grabbed _four_ of that group, although two work as SW:G developers at Sony, so I'm not sure it's entirely voluntary. :)

For me, though, I'm reluctant to buy into a MMORPG. The ones where I know folks are all PC-only, making my cost of entry prohibitive (4 Macs in the house, no PCs). If Bilzzard does a Mac WoW client or the next rev of Virtual PC supports 3D hardware, I may give it a try.
