Heres a weird one...

...does anyone else seem to get cravings or urges to play a MMO around about this time of the year?

Obviously this doesnt apply to the MMO addicts that never stopped playing em. But for me, since WoW first came out around about this time of the year some years ago (or at least, thats when I bought it...I partially blame the damn game on quitting my Computing degree haha)... it seems that right around revision/exam time theres a new flush of MMOs, and I either want to play one of them, or play WoW again. Last year it was LOTRO, this year its gonna be Conan, though I found myself reminiscing over the WoW undead start zone earlier today.

Im guessing these kinds of games are released around about the beginning of the summer hols so people are likely to play them for the duration of the hols, and into the next year. If you have less free time to play I guess youre less likely to get hooked?

No.

ATM Im doing Oblivion again, dont bother with on line games though perhaps I should try one.

Conan of WAR out soon
Conan a more dynamic combat game for an mmo, WAR is INSANELY massive in content
