      You made it to level 30 when you quit? As i don't play it anymore (haven't for almost a year) i can't say much about the new expansion pack. But i can say that you quit way too soon. I have played LoTRO and let me just tell ya, the graphics? worse than WoW, way worse.. The game play? Its pretty much a dumbed down version of WoW..

      As much as i hate saying it, WoW is a game that anyone can play, but to play it well and be able to do half of the raids/instances you need to be able to know what you are doing and have some skill to it. WoW has one of the biggest and most extensive 'universe' for any game that i have ever played. There is esentially a storyline to anything and everything in that game. That and all the cool stuff happens at level 40 so you quit way way too early.

      Can't believe i just defended WoW.

      Anyways, new update = tits.

      If it isn't fun for the first 3 days (which it took me to get to level 30), I'm not going to give it any more time than that to get interesting....and the problem is that anyone can play it, which bores the hell out of me. It's cartoonish graphics drive me nuts. It's universe is big, but I don't think it is the biggest out there....in fact I don't think it has caught up with EQ1 in terms of sheer size.

      LoTRO's graphics (IMO) were somewhere between those of EQ2 and WoW...and it utilized WoW's UI basically....which is why I don't play it anymore.

      The best new MMORPG is Warhammer for me. Strategy, PvP instances, fighting for control of land, etc, etc, etc... make this game a must have for me.

        Well you can have your own opinion of it don't get me wrong. I just think its funny you only gave it 3 days. So then you did a 10 day trial or did you spend $50 or so for the game then $15 for the month subscription then wasted the rest of the month?

            NXE lets you cache games on the HD
            NXE lets you use avatars
            NXE lets you stream netflix, and has better native support for VGA

            What's there not to like?

                          I tried, and it and streamed Boiler Room last night. Seemed to work pretty good.

                            im not sure what the first one means so i probably wont use it, i think the avitars are a cheap knock off of the wii, and i bought my dvd player for watching dvds and my xbox to play video games, basicly there is nothing new that i would use, and all i really use my xbox for anymore is to play halo on the weekend with my buddies im not that into gaming anymore, the last game i bought was gta IV

                                Other than loading the games onto the hdd, the best feature so far is team chat. Wanted to chat with just teammates instead of listening to the opponents but was only able to have private chats. Now it supports team chat with more than 2 people!

                                  ^^ I like the team chat so you don't have to listen to all the little 12 years olds whine in your ear all the time. Just talk to the people you want to. The netflix is sweet, I've been catching up on my episodes of heros so I don't have to worry about actually seeing them on tv (since always busy). So far I like it, I may try out the hard drive caching tonight with forza and COD4.

                                        I have season 1 on HD DVD and season 2 on regular. I've been missing the current season on tv every week though, was nice to get caught up on where the series is again.
