Title: I am the very last...
Post by: CHIZZY on March 22, 2002, 05:36:14 AM
...Person to see The Lord of the Rings. I have no idea why I didn\'t see this movie sooner...

(oh yeah, the movie theatre by my house is real ghetto.= 300 black kids yelling at the movie screen...+ fights afterward...)

anyhoo, I loved it. It was still showing in the "big" theatre in the complex.(stadium seating, THX, DTS= loud). AND, my GF & I were the only ones in the theatre.

So, that\'s it...my interest in fantasy fiction is officially piqued again. I am going to buy Everquest after work. Tell my GF I love her, feed my cats, and maybe slip a pizza under my computer room door every now and then. Call the nerd patrol if you don\'t hear from me for a while.

Oh wait, I still have to finish Drakan, The Ancient\'s Gates. (better than I thought it would be...)

mmmm   evercrack.

Well, what\'s the gameplay like? and what\'s involved with getting started?

hmmm the gameplay is pretty deep at times but there really isnt deep in the sense of fighting - but there are so many ways to interact with the world and characters that makes it deep

fighting though can be repetitive if you solo and thats why grouping is reccomended once you hit around lvl 8-10 if you are a tank/melee class

if you are a caster then its hard to solo at first - least i found it was


anyway in the game there are several different races each with their own advantages and disadvantages - you may also pick different class

check here for all your evercrack needs http://eq.castersrealm.com

and setting it up you need a credit card and the first month is usually free and then 10 bucks a month after that

Hrmm maybe I should get into Everquest.  But I don\'t think I could ever find the time...  Maybe some day...

Damn I have not even beaten FFX yet, been 3 weeks since I last played cause I have been so damn busy..

10 bucks is a lot for one game.  They need to give me the game for free for that much money.  That\'s why I like Blizzard games.

By the way Warcraft III is pretty sweet.

Also, this thread pulled a 180 awfully quick.

I\'m not the "kiss & tell" type, Falcon...

I\'m more the "fornicate & write it on the bathroom wall" type.
Just go to any one of 3 burger kings or a gas station in the western new york area for the lowdown...

you can play the game on 56k

i would suggest having a good amount of ram though to help with zoning

but yea the minimum requirement for that is 28.8k modem and my friend use to play with 56k all the time

why nout just do slight upgrades to your pc - those are some very very low specs to have and it a upgrade would be very very cheap and easy

yeah... I can do that..

Where can ya get that done?
Title: I am the very last...
Post by: Sublimesjg on March 24, 2002, 05:38:28 PM
you can check http://www.pricewatch.com

or you can go to a local computer store and check how much they cost to upgrade and install or check their parts prices

i really wouldnt recommend doing the upgrades yourself unless you have some experience

anyway id almost say just go get a new pc since they are so cheap now adays now that i think about it

you can get a quality pc for like 700 bucks now
