  4. World of Warcraft

    in Coin Op Arcade

    Posted · Edited by That One Guy

    The game is $50. The first month is free and you get a 10-day free pass to give to someone else. If you pay by credit card, it costs me like $15 a month, but you can get it cheaper by paying for more months at a time.

    I will warn you though, after the free month you'll be addicted, no matter whether you consider it expensive or not.

    I've been telling you pricks that for ages. Come to Smolderthorn.

    And Matzat, the big issue with warlocks has to do with the soul shards. Not only can they not stack and therefore kill bag space, but they're very essential. The problem is, you have to kill something worth XP to get them. At level 60, there aren't all that many easily accessible mobs worth XP, but you're still going to need shards. That makes you the only class that needs to grind even after hitting 60. A warlock with enough shards is definately a force to be reckoned with, and warlocks are king for PvE.

    I'm an orc shaman on Smoldy by the way, so for the Horde and all that.

  7. That game called Hockey

    Its 1 of few sports that the players actually earn there money

    Care to back that up with fact?

    It takes a great toll on your body and unlike football you don't have a week maybe two to recover. That might be what he's referring to. To me it's the toughest sport to play out of the North American big 4. You try skating while controlling a puck going up ice while peeking over your shoulder to see if you're gonna be blindsided.

    I've played both league and club hockey before, so I know how difficult it is, but I fail to see how they earn their money any more than other athletes. Almost all professional athletes are overpaid for what I consider "games". You tell me how they are worthy of millions but cops, doctors, and teachers aren't.

  12. WWE SmackDown! vs RAW 2006

    I'm actually all for Bra and Panties, Buried Alive, and so fourth. While i'm not excited by seeing Virtual Victoria getting her clothes torn off it was a new type of match, and at least in HCTP (Haven't played anything since that), it was fucking difficult. I had fun with it.

    However, I also think THQ's priorities are fucked up, and there are things far more important.

  13. 2005 World Series of Poker final table

    Personally, i'm pulling for Matusow. Sure, he's quite the... character... but he's put in a hell of a lot more work to get there. He does this for a living. I'm all for the poker boom, it's a great thing, but it would still be nice to see that a pro has a shot at winning this thing.

    Bear in mind, I don't know any of the others, and i'm assuming they're amateurs or have considerably less experience. Also, some food for thought, would it be harder to shut Matusow up if he won it, or if he got rivered and went out in second place?

  15. The Inside

    in Movies & TV

    This really sucks. How did a show like "North Shore", which did similar numbers and was only half as good make it to the fall schedule, while a gem like this bite the dust so quickly? I guess this means we won't even get to see the episode with Amber Benson until the DVD release.

    One word: BI-KI-NIS.

    Fox figured North Shore could pick up and be the Melrose Place to their Beverly Hills 90210 (The O.C.). As for The Inside, Fox is not sure if it can find a following minus the small cult audience watching it now.

  16. Favorite Angel/Buffy Moment?

    in Movies & TV

    I think that the Buffyverse probably has the greatest character devellopments of any shows out there. Just take a look at Wesley, he starts out as this total fucking pussy and by the end of Angel, he may as well been called Wesley Wyndham-Badass.

    That applies to pretty much everyone but Xander, who actually somehow managed to be less bad ass than when they started. I wish that he'd gone the route of Wesley a bit more, albeit without entirely dropping the smartass part. It just felt that the only time he'd get his just deserts towards someone who'd wronged him was when he went on some long monologue and they were too taken aback to put him in his place. Ironic, bad ass Xander would have been > *.

    From my experience, it takes some pretty awesome Alliance players to beat the Horde in Battlegrounds.

    I play Firetree and Smolderthorn. The Smolderthorn ratio changes a lot since it's a fairly new server, but Firetree is about 3 to 1 in favor of Horde. Orgrimmar is pure hell.

    I should add for any American players looking to change server, or just beginning to play, do not play Firetree. It really is a terrible server. The people are obnoxious, even moreso than any of the other servers, the AH is terribly overpriced, and though i've yet to get there myself, I hear it's impossible to find people to do high level instances with.

    Smolderthorn, on the other hand, is fucking awesome.
