Cool Nad, I might start up an Undead over there to hook up with ya.
I've been checking out some YouTube footage of some games and Pirates looks ok but I'm not really grabbed by it. Age of Conan is looking pretty good. Warhammer Online has some interesting stuff and is still the game I'm most looking forward to. Check out this
footage as a Witch Hunter - it's zoomed way out, but it gives you a feel for the world but what most got me into it was the mood music. Almost reminds me of Diablo with it's creepy, eerie goodness. Check out also this character creation
footage of different classes - I'm very stoked for this game.
In the meantime, a little bit of EQ2, a little bit of WoW, a little bit of LOTRO, and some X-Box gaming should keep me distracted until AoC and WO come out.
