I know I'm double-posting, bite me.  This is serious, damn it!

DDO's new expansion, Menace of the Underdark looks like its going to be fucking SWEET.  How, you say?  I'll tell ya, you ignorant slut!

* Epic Levels.  Yes, you can finally go above level 20, all the way to level 25.

* I know this will make some of you guys fairly fuckin happy...Druids.  You're finally getting Druids.

*No longer are we bound to one world.  Oh no.  We got Forgotten Realms to go to now, bitches!

This is...this opens up a LOT of fucking possibilities.  Epic levels means we could see characters...potentially ascending to fucking godhood.  And, if we're going to be able to go to Forgotten Realms and bitchslap motherfuckers we ain't even heard of before...why not other worlds in other expansions?

In short: FUCK.  YES.

I downloaded my first mod on Fallout 3. It was to add new songs to GNR. I don't know if I want to tackle a texture pack yet... Even tho I desperately want one.

I've been watching a lot of Yogscast videos regarding Guild Wars 2.  Between it and Menace of the Underdark, it looks like this year (and maybe the next) may very well be a damn good year for us MMO gamers.

(Though the preorder for the latter is set at 80 quid...I'm already tempted to plunk down just that much to preorder the awesome.)

When the fuck are they going to get around to making SimCity 5?

And no, Societies doesn't count.

Has it been officially confirmed? There have been similar rumors going around since 2006.

Not yet. But I posted about there being a lot more evidence rather than just soft rumors. Battlefront 3 lobbies have been found, tho.

I'm not getting my hopes up until there's some concrete evidence.

On a different note, KotOR is refusing to work on Windows 7. It just crashes as soon as it starts.

I'm having a tough time deciding if I should pre-order: Max Payne 3, Darksiders II, Borderlands 2, The Witcher 2, Dragon's Dogma, Bioshock Infinite, Prey 2, and Tomb Raider.

That's a lot of games and many of them come out in the same month. I can't afford it all. :( Maybe Tomb Raider, Witcher 2, Borderlands 2, and Max Payne 3.

New info that's just been released. Assassin's Creed III is set during the American Revolution.

I'm wondering how they're going to deal with all of the guns in the setting. The series is mostly centered around melee combat.

The setting also means less cities and more countryside. The cities in colonial America weren't nearly as large or grand as the ones in Europe.

I love how AC3 is actually like AC5. :P

Anywho, I'll definitely be getting this one as usual.  Haven't missed an AC game yet.

Single shot muskets and pistols.  There was a lot more melee combat then you expect in the American Revolution.  So there's that.

Why would you pre-order Witcher 2? It's been out since last year.
