    that is great time to try one and then try the other without having both of them launched on the same day well maybe the open beta will be at the same time as the EQ2 launch.  YEAH!!! but I am still waiting for "Board In A Box" to release that will be the MMO to end all MMO'simage

    Are they releasing a Collectors' Edition of that ... all I really want is the figurine image

    As far as I know there will be one so that your board will have a nifty little home depot logo on it but if you order from EB you get a Lowes logo anyone out there correct me if I am wrong on that one

    admins should open a Board In A Box forum under games in devolpment section

  • shoanmitchshoanmitch Member Posts: 43
    Yeah that would be cool if they did.  I hear that news of "Board in a Box" is sweeping the game sights everywhere in fact the polls have it even with WOW and killing EQ2.  In fact I think i heard Adam Sesler and Morgan Webb talking about it on G4TechTV last nightimage

    Sony made sure PS2 was released before XBOX.

    Now SOW makes sure EQ2 is released before WoW.

    I see a pattern here.image

    And many sleepless nights for SOE developers...image

    Yeah, cause release date is really the thing that determines whether a game is good or not. If EQ2 is as buggy as SWG, then you will get to wait 2 months before things are even close to working right.

    You are more than welcome to express your likes and hatred towards games and companies. However, we draw the line at people using "color metaphors" to express their views on any opinion.

     

    People who have to create conspiracy and hate threads to further a cause lacks in intellectual comprehension of diversity.

    *steps in and SMACKS around the smack talkers*

     BOTH games will be successful HITs.

     As long as each of them get 100,000 subscribers they BOTH will recoup all investment money, and will meet the industry standard for being a hit MMORPG.

     Next, EQ2's target audiance is NOT the same one as WoW.

      - EQ2 is targeted towards former EQ players, then current EQ players.

      - WoW is targeted towards Blizzard fans. The MAJORITY of which do not, nor never ever have, played a MMORPG before.

     BOTH games will be successful HITs. Anyone who dislikes EQ2 - do NOT play it! Play something else. Anyone who dislikes WoW - do NOT play it! Play something else.

     Anyone who likes EQ2, who likes WoW - do not fall for the trolls and flamers trying to instigate mayhem on the forums! LOL! Here's another wrench for you smack talkers - many gamers are fans of BOTH EQ/EQ2 ...AND... Blizzard! image And we will be playing BOTH EQ2 .... AND.... WoW! image
