BringIt.com Allows Players to Bet On Console Game Matches 112

eldavojohn writes to tell us of a new service, "BringIt.com," that allows gamers to put their money where their mouth is with respect to their console gaming skill. "BringIt supports the PlayStation 2, the PS3, the Xbox 360 and the Wii. Players challenge each other on the site, but play on their consoles. BringIt holds players' entry fees until the game is finished. After the game is done, it verifies the results and credits the winner, minus the service fee. To attract players of a broad range of skill sets, BringIt has separate tournaments meant for novice players and expert gamers. Levin compared it to the handicap system in golf or the weight-class system in wrestling.

The day they made every class do the same thing ruined the game. It made the game feel watered down. Healers should heal and not deal damage on par with other dps classes. The only exception should be the 3 Hybreds. leaving the others to concentrate on one roll. having 4 classes that can all tank to the same ability or 4 healers that can all heal to the same ability waters down the game

I just finished reading the patch notes, and i must say it appears that they are making this game easyier and easyier to play, Part of the fun in vanilla wow was how hard it was to level as some characters but was paid off once you got to level 60. Not its just a mass race to 80.

I still enjoy playing warcraft but i never got into the whole raiding thing i used to love pvp when it was about 8 hour AV battlegrounds. I still get the most enjoyment in warcraft from leveling characters and chatting with some guild mates but i think i might just cancel my subscription now because of the way blizzard are taking the game.

I can see in the near future blizzard offering a service where if you have 1 level 80 you can pay x to get another level 80 on the same server without having to level him. Just to make it all that much more easyier for the players.
