Wow.
No really, WoW.
Yes, The acclaimed highlyrated MMORPG,And its great. Really, its just about the Alliance, or the good guys, against the Evil Horde. Sounds traditional? Not really. You can be anything in WoW, Night Elf, Dwarf, Undead Orc, Human, to name a few. Each charactor is fully customisable, Hair, Gender, face, Skin tone, anything. It has thousands of different Quests you can do, or don't do. Thats right, if you don't feel up to a certain quest, you can simply Accept or Decline it, or ditch it at any time. THere is several different modes of play, Normal, Player vs Player, RPG, and one other (I think), that i can't remember off hand. Normal is pretty much Player vs player and Rpg together. Player vs Player, which is pretty much Alliance vs Horde and raids and stuff like that (or what my friend said.) RPG, is well, just an RPG adventure with Quests and stuff. Though I am on Dial Up (you can play it on Dial Up), I do lag a little. Dial up certainly cannot handle downloading patches (luckily my friend has Sattelite Internet). But hey, if you Fast internet, and can pay the monthly charges (my friend and I share an account), get this game. It is TOTALLY WORTH IT. Well there you go. Talk.

Pokémon Blue Pokémon Yellow Paper Mario Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door Phantasy Star Online Episodes I & II

I would love to play Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games, or MMORPG. Say, did that genre go a while without an official name?
Anyway, I would love to play World of Warcraft. I'm a huge fan of the Warcraft strategy games, and this seems like a fun Diablo type game in the Warcraft World. The other MMORPG game I would love to play would be City of Heroes. You get to make your own super hero and run around with everybody saving the day.
However, one problem I have with MMORPG games is the monthly fee. And I'm not taking about the pain of playing it. The problem I foresee me having with a monthly fee game is becoming too nervous over whether or not I was getting my money's worth. When you think about it, those games cost about fifty cents a day. Which isn't much, but if I don't play for a few days I'll feel pressured to have to make up for that $1.50 I lost.
That may seem odd, but I am the kind of person who figures out how much a game cost me per hour if it keeps track of playtime. For example, Metroid Echoes cost me about $2 an hour, while Disegea cost me $.30 an hour.
So that's a reason I'm probably going to get the game Guild Wars. It's part MMORPG. Everybody gathers together in the main cities plus there's PvP. But once you and your guild/friends go on a quest you're out of the MMORPG world and into your own little world. Not the same, but it doesn't cost anything extra. Plus I've heard it's a better single player experience then other MMORPGs, which is what I would probably do more the not.
Still, I need to get my computer to work first for any of this to happen ...
