iv recently started a new job (plus had a 43,000£ win at poker) so i have bought myself a nice shiny new pc that can actually handle games...

iv been playing NWN2+expansions/civ4 + expansions/fm08 until i bought my new machine...what games are around, id still like to find what i miss from UO but having a read seems that still doesnt exist, any mmos to keep an eye on? RPG style games (like BG+NWN)?

ps. lub 2 carix (and lesser extent zole)

Alright mate?

Only mmo worth even looking at is Darkfall, and we all know how unlikely that seems to ever come out..

Games wise, me n Slamer playing lots of Company of Heroes, it isn't going to test a brand new system very much, but is a quality game. Best RTS i've played since AOK. Think other people all playing WoW or just console gaming now..

Gonna be playing cricket this season?

Latest update on darkfall is here:

Sounds reasonably promising, but..... yeah.

Recently returned to uo, although I don't really play it all that much (since it sucks).

ps: hi

yeh im good carix, baby joseph is 7months now, so i have my hands full with him and my new job, but i still miss uo (dont we all?) and i still get to play abit now and again on my pc!

as for cricket, yeh hopefully il find a new club up here in the midlands as im like 2.5hrs from playing herts league again, and i didnt get many games under my belt last year (like 6 or 7 was really frustrating through injury and then lack of form when i did get a game was shocking, i averaged like 15 my worst season in a loooong time)

as for games, still hanging onto darkfall!? its been like 2 years since 1st mention?

maybe i should try WoW (i never played it wen u gays did)

COH is a online RTS? im looking forward to starcraft2 personally...me goes and looks at a COH review.

We vehemently resist the notion that too much player freedom is a bad thing so we're pushing the envelope wherever we can on that, despite popular opinion.

um i won 6x20$ jackpot sng's in a row, for the casino prize of 85000$, was pretty scared when HU in the last one i had even stacks with opponent, and had 7s vs KQ, coinflip for 85k is rather terrifying, but blinds were way up and it was then or never vs an aggro oppenent 7s HU is auto shove 20bb deep.

i normally play 20$sngs or 50$sngs with ROI between 12-15%, but fancied playing these jackpot ones for a change, and hit it big within 100 lol. my screen name scrolls across the vcpoker client which is pretty cool ;p

I swear you just spoke Japanese there.

My flat mate is a poker dealer and understood it totally, I was like, DUDE WTF?

But, well played.
