Well I said I wouldn’t look at WoW, after my experiences of a trial some years back. However I was watching the 5th episode of Rise of the Video Game which featured MMOs. I remembered back to the Warcraft 2 and Starcraft days (I know they different kind of games!) and I was compelled to give it another go.
I have tried Second Life, which was entertaining for a couple of weeks, but wore off quickly. Have looked at Guild Wars and Eve as well. However WoW just seems better, plus 7 million people can’t all be wrong. Plus maybe I might run into Mr T or Captain Kirk
Since I’m not doing Windows any more either, WoW seems to work pretty well through Cedega so I will probably go that route. The CD set I have are from the original WoW launch so I don’t fancy downloading all of the updates. So I will try to work out what I can pinch from Mati’s machine.
UPDATED: Well I should have probably just downloaded the new Trial installer which was 2.6GB. I have disks, and 2GB worth of patches, however the installer decided to download accumulated updates rather that the 21 that I have. So I ended up downloaded 1.1GB anyway, but I guess I did save at least a day.
