    I'm thinking that I should start to play some sort of online game. But I'm not sure of what game I should go for :confused:, it's probably going to be Everquest or Anarchy Online. I've tried UO and I find that OK but it's not the game I'm looking for. Anyone got tips for other online games? Or tips for whats the greatest game of EQ and Anarchy Online?

    Thanks guys, I'll be checking out both Hollow and Planetarion, but I don't think I will wait until NWN comes out. Probably going to buy it as soon as its released anyway (Spring 2002) :(.

    Why limit yourself on RPGs?

    I`d say Tribes 2.

    If you are looking beyond RPGs to RTS try shattered Galaxy www.sgalaxy.com A great game. I'd stay away from EQ unless you want a whole lot of hack and slash. Wait the six months for NWN. Why didn't you like UO? Just wondering?

    Well PA has some server problems and as they have some 120k players they have their ass full. But hey open up sign ups now and then and if not there is always a new round.

    Wow - I downloaded Shattered Galaxy and its amazing and really addictive. I will definitely buy that when it comes out, unless you have to pay to play online too (I'm stingy and have no credit card ;) ).
