Interesting

So, Guild Wars 2 doesn't have a subscription fee? I'm assuming they're going to go off of micro-transactions for continued income?

Eh... regardless, don't think I'll pick it up any time soon. (If someone wants to buy it for me, that's different, but I'm pretty sure that's not going to happen. :P )

once again

I cancelled my City of Heroes VIP account. Can't really justify continuing the monthly payments for a game that I haven't really played much in a few months.

Also, I haven't logged in to LotRO in weeks, but I was only on the free to play account there anyway.

And it must be said, while The Secret World is fun, since I don't do dungeons or PvP that much, there's pretty much a limit of what gear I can acquire.... and I'm basically playing to have something to do during waking hours.

I play games as a form of escapism, but it seems to always end up that despite them being MMOs, I end up not grouping with anyone because even if I have friends that are playing, I'm on such a different work schedule then them that we're never on at the same time.

I accept the fact that I play time-wasting games. I don't own a car, so I can't really go too many places unless they're nearby, and let's face facts, I'm of an age where hanging out on campus makes me the 'creepy middle-aged guy'. I'm not hanging out in one of the local coffee shops, because... you know.... hipsters.

Oh, this could get interesting...

So, Gawker somehow got their hands on about 950 pages of Romney's internal audits, financial statements, and private investor letters, and it just might be that he employed some, dare I say it, shenanigans, when reporting his income.

Or it could be a fart in a breeze.
