As many of you who frequent the video game posts here know I consider myself a regular console gamer. Well, in the last few months I haven't even turned on a console. Yes, a sin! I've been playing and addicted to World of Warcraft on my Mac (also for Windows PC). Does anyone else play WoW? Just curious to know what you all think of it and if you play, look me up. I am on the Kilrogg (spelling?) server and my character's name is: Cléopatra. Yes, you have to use the accented "é."

P.S. No my character doesn't run around barefoot...

My computer runs it ok until I go into a city called Ironforge. Blizzard decided to place a bunch of important places people will have to go right inside the entrance, so it is lag city when you get in there. Even with a cable connection I get crap. This computer only has a low key video card (Macintosh), but I ordered a PC with a NICE one and LOTS of memory. If I lag with this monster system, Blizzard needs to fix the damn game!
Horde hunters have torn me up pretty bad in PVP. Like fighting two people if you pet is nice. I am a warrior because I just like to stick my nose in people's faces and fight. If I ever make a second character I was thinking of doing a druid.
I got a brand new gaming computer for my graduation present, so I never have slow downs. Even in Ironforge it doesnt seem to slow down that much.
Stupid log in server! I couldnt in all last night. Cut out on my play time!
Ohhh druids are nice! They have quite an advantage over other classes. man you need to come over to Spirestone! The horde are taking over here like nobody's business! In stormwind (redridge mainly) they are setting up camp and anyone who tries to do a quest gets killed. Same with Ashenvale/Astranaar. Was killed 2 times yesterday...

I am running a Mac, with what I thought had 64MB of VRAM, come to find out, it only has 32MB. Other than that, the computer is good enough to run it. But I have a PC on the way that I just had built with 256 MB of VRAM, so I know I should fly in there now.

I've heard a lot about WoW and have seen it. A good friend of mine has it and I've seen the play online. I've never actually played it though, but it's enough for me just to sit there and watch, which really says a lot about the game itself if you can be taken in by a game you're not even playing.

I almost bought that computer, but decided to have one custom built. I just got it this week. I have 2GB of RAM, a 256MB ATI video card and a 4 GB processor. It flies on this game compared to what I was doing on my MAC. I have all the video settings on the highest and get no lag.
