Never a dull moment with WOW

Monday, April 17, 2006 · 2 Comments

This video comes from some assholes on a WOW PvP server.

The story goes, this one guy from some guild died IRL, and he was still online, or someone logged on as him, so they could have an online funeral in WOW (I've been to weddings in Ragnarok Online, but a funeral?). Anyways, whatever forum it was, the guild posted on it to invite people to pay their respects to the guys character.

Well the Serenity Now guild payed their respects by destroying everyone in attendance to the funeral, and filmed it.

Sure it was an asshole thing to do, but you can't help but think its funny. If I ever got into WOW, I always thought I would go with a non PvP server, just cause I always got pissed off at global PvP in RO, but it seems the PvP servers are always hopping, either bad or good.

Kingdom Hearts II: Gimme Gimme Gimme!

No, i haven’t played it yet. But the commercial gives me chills, just like the first KH commercial did. Though, the real magic of the first commercial, was the theme they chose, set to the footage, followed by all the disney characters, and the voice over “You never know who you’re going to run into next”. Oooooo. Can’t say that i am a fan of KHII’s Theme music in the commercial, or at least, as big of a fan as i was of the original KH theme.

I can’t wait to play this version. Steamboat Mickey will be there! Tron! Its going to be so kicking.

I never got the urge to beat the GBA one though. And i understand the GBA version is a parrallel sequal or something, between KH and KHII. I never got into the whole Card/Action/RPG thing. If you want to make a card game, give me a card game. Otherwise the game was more work than it was fun in my opinion.

But hopefully I can fully enjoy KHII when i finally get it, without having previously beaten KH Chain of Memories.
