Well, I just hawked my gamecube and some games for Age of Conan. Sad part is I'm moving atm and have no time for it, and we'll probably be internetless for a week or two.

Oh well.

I dunno about the one. I played the old AoC for X360 and hated it. I also just got back into WoW. This game sold more then GTA4.

^^PUT THIS IN YOUR SIG ASAP!

I thought AoC for 360 won't be released for another year. O.o
The other version for the 360 was just named "Conan", and a fair bit different from this one.
Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position.
Such a heavy burden now to be "The One".

If it were F2P, I might have looked into it.

I didn't know there was a 360 version coming out.

Anyways, the Conan franchise dates back to books from the 1930's or something. There were probably several mediocre games made to cash in on it.

I had the 100000000+ page MMO version. You couldn't play unless you were in a library with a full stock and over 200 people.

It went kind of like:

Your parties cleric chooses to heal you for 10 points. Please refer to section ZZ of page 4993705 for options to progress with.

Gary Gygax (R.I.P., rolling 20s in his grave) was still struggling to get back into the whole D&D thing. We thought it was the next best thing.

A little update on the AoC thing.

I've been playing the game for a while now and it seems pretty sweet. It's got alot of character to it and the staff generally seems competent. The game just needs some polish in the form of bugfixes.

Also, I get 30fps on low settings with my GeForce 8600GT ("1100something" x "800something" resolution). Processor doesn't matter much, people are running this game with a P4 and a modern graphics card and they do just fine graphically.

I could never pick it up, the name just makes me think of Conan O'Brien too much, which would not be an ideal game source..

Compare the man to Conan O'Brian again... and he'll kill you.
You have been warned.

It's pretty violent and bloody. Me likes. Sadly, I'm probably going to go with Warhammer until GW2 comes out.

Puny system requirements are no match for my machine.

Ruckus is right about wow though. For people like me, who've been with blizzard since Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, it's a hard tie to break. I don't think, even if I do start AoC, that I'll ever be able to truly sever ties with wow.

That said, I did get a LOT of money for graduation, most of which I am happy to blow on games, and so I very well may pick up this game and give it a try. I don't know about most places, but the shop I saw it at had a copy that gave you a month free, so that's encouraging me to try it.

O man, yeah the new ver of the game just popped out of my {expletive antidisestablishmentarianized by Cspace} and I could play it on my X360.
No dip im talking about the old game....

Ill probably give this game a shot once I hear more about it. Maybe when the expantion pack is out since by then they must of added a bunch of updates and fixes most of the major flaws.
Ill also check if there is a free trial on the site like the 14 day WoW free trial that got me starting to play the game.
