Online gaming

There's an interesting and somewhat bitter account on Slashdot about What You Really Get From An Online Game like Everquest.
Also a fairly long article about the Xbox Live online gaming service over at Tomshardware.com. It'll be a while before Europe gets to play the Xbox online: March 17th is said to be the launch date for the service in the Netherlands. One of the drawbacks of the service, as I see it, is that you need to register a "Gamertag", or an unique nickname, to play. As the reviewer notes, it took him quite a while to come up with a name that he both liked and that wasn't already taken. It's only going to get more difficult over time to register a sensible, likeable tag... but for the moment the Europeans just will have to wait and see.

Comments and trackbacks have been closed on this site. My apologies.
Since MT-Blacklist inexplicably stopped working I had no other recourse than close comments and trackbacks to stop the spam. I've been meaning to correct this for quite a while, but life got in the way... in a good way I should add.
