Comment Re:F2P a Misnomer? (Score 1) 62

See, that's the thing. In WoW, you can go "Oh look, this set of raid dungeons is 'end game'. In 4.2 (the content patch out next week) this other set of raid dungeons is 'end game'."

For a long time, CoX didn't have an end game, per se. Yes, there were certain types of mobs you really didn't fight until you were in the last couple levels of content, but by and large, they weren't horribly different from previous types of mobs. (The exception probably being some of the Malta Groups mobs.)

Now, and this is a fairly recent thing, there are 'end game' missions and raids which you either cannot even start until you are level 50 (the level cap), or that you cannot even start until you are level 50 and have acquired initial Incarnate abilities (the alternate advancement system).

That's a good point, but it's not like there aren't a ton of super-villains running around in spandex either (Spider-Man movies notwithstanding). At least some of the heroes have some color coordination. Then you have villains like Electro, the Trapster, or the Wizard who have.... um... incredibly garish costumes.

Lost Online Games From the Pre-Web Era 186

harrymcc writes "Long before the Web came along, people were playing online games — on BBSes, on services such as Prodigy and CompuServe, and elsewhere. Gaming historian Benj Edwards has rounded up a dozen RPGs, MUDs, and other fascinating curiosities from the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s — and the cool part is: they're all playable on the Web today." What old games were good enough for you to watch them scroll by on your 300 baud modem?

Don't download movies without paying for them?

Yes, yes, I know, there are far broader implications of the loss of privacy on the interwebs, and so forth.

However, my point still stands. Don't download movies you don't have permission to and this case never would have come up in this manner.
