    EQMac Now Free to Play

    Torrid... good for you bro. P99 the only guys really close to EQMac in terms of content? I understand they are just an expansion or two into the game but was curious if they're plans to bring something classic up to stand in for EQMac?

    EQMac Now Free to Play

    I have never been "in-game" of something that shut down. I watched FFXIV close down and that was actually pretty cool but I agree, this is incredibly sad because it is the last "official" version of the game in existence. There will never be original Freeport, the graphics, gear, etc. EQMac...

    How would you re-socialize MMOs?

    I have heard from several people that Georgeson gets a lot of praise internally at SoE because of his vision with SoEmote. To re-socialze MMO's they simply need to be simplified, with content and itemization be more meaningful. Think of why you grouped. Sure, it was the most efficient way...

    I remember visiting this place when I was guide. Do they still offer a Guide Program?

    EQMac Shutting down

    Pretty well Smed is trying to cut people's cords and tell them if you are not spending money or at least exposed to our Marketplace we don't want you. We don't care about extending the olive branch we simple want and need to make money. Our stuff is declining and we do not want to present...

    Wonder what the community will do to send the server off? Sleeper still there right? Can they kill it al a Rallos Zek?

    EQMac Now Free to Play

    Got the email and I wish they would at least the server to the PC and run it as their "classic" server. They need to so something with this because it's the best thing they have out in the public market.

    Transformers 4: Baylicious

    Grimlock's voice better be worthy of Grimlock. To me, it would be almost as important as Optimus.

    EQ Classic? Not really.

    yeah, I can help but scratch my head in wondering what did he expect? It is fair to have some hopes that people will be one way or the other but the reality is the vocal members of the EQ community have always acted this way and you just deal with it. Some of it is entertaining and some of us...

    The Pokemon Thread

    I had never played any of these games. I remember when I was a CS student in college a Comic Book store hired me to do their networking and set up their eBay store so I actually worked there for a few months. I remember hearing about these games and the card games. I despised these kids at the...

    Which MMO *DO* you actually play now?

    I'm playing pretty casual due to time and how my job is going right now but FFXIV is definitely the only MMO I even consider playing for the time being... i'm sure others will find their itches scratched with Wildstar and Star Citizen. New consoles are on the horizon as well so i'm sure things...

    The Hobbit

    Yeah.. looks pretty good. Been hearing that most people expect this movie to be the best of the three. We'll see but this is coming from someone who really enjoyed the first one. I was pretty forgiving as I felt LotR TT and RotK were far better than FotR. So, I was anticipating The Hobbit...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I think it is hilarious that people are rushing to the top in a month or less expecting this massive amount of content when it is blatantly obvious the majority of the content is currently in the middle. You pretty well ordered a burger, asked for all your favorite toppings, dressings,whatever...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Having a great time as well. If anything it feels like what I expected EQ2 to have been with nicer graphics. In addition I feel like I have a ton of things to do. I may be the minority but I like the choices of FATES, Duty Finder, LeveQuests, GuildHiests, Story Quests, normal quests, and just...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I still think it's possible. Also, was it the Spider-man or X-men cartoon series that had the Secret Wars? That was a great storyline too

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I don't see how they can pull off the hero portion of the Infinity Gauntlet. You pretty well have to bring in everyone not to mention all the cosmic beings. I would love to see it attempted. I don't know why... maybe his voice just sounds cool to me but I'm voting for Faramir to be Adam...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I want a good Daredevil. I want a good Fantastic Four. To finish it all off, I want the Infinity Gauntlet and then they can do whatever they want. Couple of other notes of past and possibly future screw-ups to watch for and/or possibly correct. Galactus - Don't screw that up Madarin -...

    Pacific Rim

    When are people going to learn that sometimes it is ok to accept that massive explosions and giant robots, without any kind of sophisticated, supporting storyline is a completely reasonable means to make a profit. I do believe Pacific Rim is a far superior movie than any of the Transformer...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    This. It has killed me to not play a healer for the first time since 1999. I would finally decide to change classes the very game that brought back asking for rezzes. To me, that's a major layer of community. I always like running dungeons for people who needed a particular item or update...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I noticed two things you said there that I have really missed as well. You log on to chat with people and you do melds for people. I hear people all the time helping others out to finish relics stuff or whatever. Sure they're making money is most situations but I haven't seen anyone do that...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I would agree to this until this game. I really believe there's more time worth playing than a month or two in this game. It could be that i've been so busy and RL has limited my gaming time. I think if you rushed through the content you missed a lot of old school MMO feeling but if you're...

    World War Z

    Movie was a C+.. Ending was a F. Just seemed to get worse as it went along. Should been more like the book where they jumped around from various perspectives and interviews.

    This year? Perfect for me even if its December. As a school Administrator, Thanksgiving and Christmas are my prime gaming time. Hoping to enjoy a little console gaming for Thanksgiving and then 2.1 for Christmas. I have it all planned out haha. I'm moving really slow in FFXIV as well. Some...

    Your best raid or mass pvp experience across the genre?

    It wasn't so much of what they had right but rather how many bought in to it. It was nothing to see 100 vs 100 in Kylong with 40-50 of the neutral guys coming in to gank. It was just fun mainly because of the people. Everyone knew the good and bad. Gank spots were fun. It was really timing...

    Your best raid or mass pvp experience across the genre?

    PVE: Server first Yelanik was awesome. We tried it with about 300 people and failed and failed. Our raid leader finally freaked out and kept about 4-5 solid groups or whatever we killed him effortlessly. We had a Plane of Sky raid and on the last island I was the last on alive one time and...

    Warhammer Online RIP

    So unfortunate. I always felt like this game was just a swing and a miss. It had great potential and I had a lot of fun until the end game. They couldn't get the RvR right either. People just flipped and it was an endless cycle. There was never a point to defend a keep. If the masses came...

    Anyone a Comic Book collector? (Need insight)

    The comic / super-hero stuff is his interests. I may have spoken too much on my behalf because I was trying to justify it by my own investigation. It is really the only reason i'm considering it. You have no idea how much my house is Avengers, Ironman, Captain America, etc. He's in full...

    Got my code and notice in email today. Curious to see how many new accounts are made today. I actually heard quite a few people the last few days saying they were looking to buy the game. Hopefully the drop off and new guys will offset. It has been good to see groups of people at every quest...

    Anyone a Comic Book collector? (Need insight)

    Again, I appreciate everyone's comments and responses. I think we are still going to attempt to piece out a lot our sports collection to give us a little money to take my sons to some shows and let them spend some stuff. I think Dad and I are going buy them some more collectible ones to throw...

    Anyone a Comic Book collector? (Need insight)

    I guess i'm looking more into the collecting culture now in regards to cards (and maybe my ignorance has led me to believe comics may be different but again, the comic route was more driven more from my son than my market assessment). Due to the current state of cards and sports, the...

    Anyone a Comic Book collector? (Need insight)

    Appreciate the comments and insight guys. Again, not trying to "make" money and I am going to just get what my kids want but I am wanting to add to it. I probably didn't articulate this earlier but I want my kids to get Spiderman actions figures, dollar comics, just whatever he wants but...

    Anyone a Comic Book collector? (Need insight)

    None taken but what we did learn is that Sports collectibles are something you really can't even get into anymore. To save themselves they created the extreme values and then everything else. You cannot casually collect for fun and at the same time get something you feel is worth something...

    Anyone a Comic Book collector? (Need insight)

    That is essentially what my Dad is looking to do. He's wanting to get the Silver/Golden Age kind of stuff. Our Sport Memorabilia collection is pretty extensive and while we would love the investment aspect, it is really not a major priority. Essentially, the money invested in our Sports...

    Anyone a Comic Book collector? (Need insight)

    First, let me provide some background. My father and I have travelled the eastern United States going to card shows and collecting sports cards and memorabilia. We were and are sports nuts and my Dad always felt that it was better to invest in something you enjoy collecting that throwing in a...
