What I Want For Christmas

Category: Player POV, Site

Santa Orc

A quick list of what I’d love as gifts. Feel free to put your own pie-in-the-sky wishes into the comments.

  • “Firefly” and Marvel MMOGs that live up to expectations.
  • New and exciting PvP options in World of Warcraft. Past time for new Battlegrounds, doncha think?
  • A swift stabilization of the WoW servers after BC launches.
  • RvR in Warhammer Online that lives up to Mythic’s promises.
  • Entertainment in the continuation of my adventures in Norrath.
  • Continued success for Guild Wars and the quirky no-subscription titles from NCSoft.
  • Ongoing patience from Simon Carless with my ‘MMOG Nation’ column at GameSetWatch.
  • Even more acceptance of Massive games by the mainstream — more WoW in-jokes in prominent places.
  • Another really great Machinima series set in a Massive game, and/or the second episode of Illegal Danish.
  • A non-combat MMOG that gets more than a handful of players interested.
  • The skinny on what the hell Raph is doing.
  • A MMOG I can recommend to my Mom.
  • New Massive games from Square Enix and Blizzard; the announcement of a MMOG by Ubisoft.
  • The inside info on what the hell Bioware is doing.
  • For Bioware to make a new Star Wars MMOG. :)

Yeah … some are more likely than others. It’s Christmas, though, right? ;)
Merry Christmas, everybody!

    Ubisoft already shut down their MMO division and cancelled its game. A second attempt would require admitting that they made a mistake.

    Great list. I also hope that the new games live up to the hype. I’m really starved for a new game to WOW me – pun intended. I’d love to see a non-combat MMO that doesn’t become a brothel. I have some rl life friends that are vehemently against killing in games that I’d like to play something online with.

    Here’s hoping all of our gaming wishes come true.

    [...] the tree are exactly what we want. When miracles might just come true. Last year I sat down and worked out my list for Santa, and I think it would be a shame if I didn’t do the same this year. Here’s what I want [...]
