The long weekend also gives me the possibility to catch up on some of my 'gaming duties'. On the PC my wife and I are still playing '
World of Warcraft'.
We are still enjoying it a lot, MMORPG are the only way to really cooperative play computer games. WoW does a good job on the game, very easy to get into for the casual gamer, in that respect Blizzard has done the MMORPG industry a huge favour in pushing this genre mainstream. We will see if the industry can take advantage of it. There are some games on the production list, mainly by Turbine (Dungeons and Dragons Online and Lord of The Rings Online), - which did an excellent job with Asheron's Call - which I'm looking forward to.
On the XBox I'm trying out Oddworld - Stranger's Wrath. I'm actually enjoying this way more then I intially thought. Very well done, nice graphics, a reasonable innovative idea, and beside that, the prize was right. You should check it out. I'm still enjoying a casual Pro-Evolution Soccer game against my some on the XBox, in my view the premium sports game on the XBox (although I'm not an authority in judging sports games). Lots of fun!
I can wait for May 13th, on this date Forza Motorsport is released in Europe for the XBox, this looks like a keeper!
