@MafiaMusic -- Yes. I chose my list of favorite games so I could be all hardcore and hipster :/ I mean, why would I actually present my honest list? How crazy would THAT be? I didn't play Uncharted 3, and played very little of those other games. I am not going to include games I didn't play or played very little of. It's always very confusing: if I include major mainstream games, then people complain about mainstream choices. If I include non-mainstream games, people complain that I am hipster. Or maybe I just posted my favorite games of 2011. Could it *gasp* really be that simple? God forbid.
@mdboomer -- I am so glad I decided to share the game with kind folks like you on my holiday! I sense the Christmas spirit of open-hearted joy coursing through you.
@derikkeeney -- Reviews for MMOs ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS take time. We do not rush reviews of online RPGs. The game was fully launched TWO DAYS AGO. Dude. Seriously. :/ Did you not notice that there are no reviews for this game at major publications? There is a reason for that.
@spiritualchemy -- I am not here to market the game, or advocate it. I am here to play it and share the experience. My job is "critic," not "fanboy." I am sorry that I am not constantly exploding with "BEST GAME EVARR" every moment I play. So yes--sometimes I will note oddities or awesomeness, express a random thought, or make a bad joke. In other words, I will act like normal people act when they chat and play games at the same time. There are other people broadcasting streams while they play this game; perhaps another person's rambling swill be more to your liking.
