Yesterday would've been another crappy day. Nina screaming at the kids, complaining about her best friend changing, complaining about her brother or her sister (or both); the usual day living with her. However I finally got in touch with my friend and found out that we're still in good terms, which made my day.
Today I logged in Anarchy Online, which has now become my #2 favorite MMO. I played AO since 2001 in its original beta stage and public release, also been in every beta of every single expansion since then. I have tried SWG (Star Wars Galaxies) and EVE in the past 2 years for a short time, but then didn't like how Sony had nerfed their game and pretty much removed the fun aspects of it and with EVE not being able to interact with avatars and being in a ship all the time alone was boring.
This year I took a chance and bought a lifetime account for Lord of the Rings Online. Let me say, it was a wise investment, no monthly payments ever and I'm enjoying the game a great deal. It's now my favorite MMO.
I played AO a little yesterday night, since they released new high level content. I didn't get to see it all, I will log in more often the next few weeks to check out the new areas and phatz.
I guess I didn't mention I'm a long time gamer. When I came to the states, well...Nintendo was out, and the 8 bit goodness hooked me, and in turn made me a gamer for life. I don't remember a time when I was not playing some video game during any given week, of course these days I stick to PC games and leave the console gaming to my nephew and niece (and their father who is also into video games). I guess I was trying to re-capture my childhood at the beggining, but these days it's not rare for adults to play video games, hell now it's a career.
Well, I better get off before Nina wakes up and demands me to make her coffee, heh..
