Damn! I've gotta hurry and finish up Dungeon Siege before May! [img]smile.gif[/img] I WILL have Morrowind.....

[Sir Michael]

I'm with Magik...Morrowind can STAY gold, for all I care...I'm busy playing other games!

WHY OH WHY did they release all these great games at once? I DON'T HAVE TIME! *SOBS*

*Sir Michael quickly gets up and dusts himself off, embarrased at having other people see a grown man cry*

[Black Knight]

Well, I always wait a couple of weeks - because

1. I'm cheap and the price goes down

and

2. Give them time to do a patch

I always have two or three games back - I'm slow on games 'cause I HAVE to do all the quests...so I'm ready to buy Wizardry 8 currently...then either Morrowind or IWD II...sigh... [img]smile.gif[/img]

I've already pre-ordered the game. Now if I can get a videocard that will run the game by the time it ships, I'll actually be able to play it.

Hmmm, Davros looks at the competition - played Wiz 8 (great), DS doesn't want to play ball (damn I should no better than to buy a Microsoft game - they hate my system), MM9 not released here yet....... so what is the OZ release date for Morrowind - looks like I have cleaned out all the oposition .
