So I havent posted in a long time for good reasons...
My first child was born... and my wife is going through some very serious health issues.
But as great and terrible as those things are, life keeps on going... and so does gaming.

Recently I've restarted playing a TextBased RolePlaying game... its been around since about 1996 or so and I think is really the grandfather of MMORPG type gaming.  Dragonrealms might sound exactly like WoW or EQ2 by describing it here: Theres 10 classes, several different continents to explore, hundreds of skills to learn, litterally hundreds of thousands of items, several crafting systems, events, magic spells ect... ect...

I've always had a lot of fun reading and imaging the story, the characters... and this always has really done that for me, Im sure in much a way that zork did for people. (Dragonrealms and zork are like Online Vs Single Player)

Lets see also new, Indigo Prophecy for the PC, at $10.00 greatness 5 years old but so different... and it just plays wonderful.
Hotel Dusk for the DS. At $20.00 also wonderfully fresh and different and cheap.

Many many other games currently going on but Dragonrealms really has me right now... It may be an accquired tase... but I love it.
