Looks quite nice.
Unfortunately, I'm soo used to WoW's normail mouse invert state, I cant play invert mouse (as my norm) OR non-inverted.
Booooo..........

I've got it, but thanks to WoW, I haven't played it in two weeks.
It's a really, really good game too, but I just don't have time go back yet.

I'm having serious problems targeting. I dread to think what it's done to my CS:S game.......

I think I might actually be starting to loose interest in shoot em up. Getting stuck on one level in BIA made me get bored faster that I usually do in these games, it's just I know what's going to happen, so after every quick load I do the same thing again hoping the next time I'll be more successful.
Step into WoW and literally anything can happen, that's the whole appeal. You could log in in the middle of a full scale raid, or just happen to join the game in a time of calm and spend the next few hours fishing quite happily, oblivious to anything else that‘s going around you.
It's going to be very hard for me to play linear games like BIA in the future.

The excellent thing about MMORPGs is the lack of a quicksave. Possibly one of the biggest immersion-busters ever!

It's a good game but I'm having difficulty returning to linear gaming at the mo, plus I just dont want to play anything else.
I bought Splinter Cell 3 today, traded in Mercenaries for it.
WoW has stolen my gaming time, and I'm really really happy about that.
Nice to see Pandaemonium feels as happy with the game as I do, when I heard he spent a bit more to get it I felt guilty in case he was "Man this sucks".
But, as predicted, it grabbed him too!
Possibly the most enjoyable, immersive, non-linear, non repetitive game I've played in a loooooooooooong time.
And I'll happily admit that Star Wars Galaxies is terrible having tasted a truly excellent product

Got this on Xbox, I really like it. It makes me feel guilty when I successfully trick the Germans out of hiding.
Got a suppression team and a fire team now, so I get one to suppress and the other to flank and kill, while I observe the carnage. Makes me feel proud, like a parent with 11 kids that just won the World Cup.

Excellent movie. I have to see the extended version with the Bollywood style dance scene.

Heh, the Thriller dance near the beginning was when my sanity started going downhill. It's awesome, but I don't know why. Apparently that new film ("Kung Fu Hustle") of his is even better. Not sure when it comes out here.
