...Because Tara and I just recently quit playing World of Warcraft.
...Because it's been a lonnnnnng time since we played Final Fantasy XI.
...Because Anarchy Online, Asheron's Call (and AC2 FTW,) Dark Age Of Camelot, Everquest, Shadowbane, and Lineage just don't have what it takes to hold our attention anymore...
...We got Guild Wars. Both the Prophecies and Factions campaigns, actually, thanks to the generosity of one of our friends.

New MMO!!! WOOHOOO!!
Especially since it's free month-to-month, all you pay is the one-time purchase fee - great for us poor people.
But: new MMO.
And you know what that means.
DANCE VIDEOS!!!
See, in virtually any online game, there's a way to do those friendly emotes you know and love from chat. But in a game, since you can SEE them, there's always one set that chat never gets: dancing.
Sometimes good, sometimes bad, sometimes ripped off of famous music videos, sometimes stolen from movies, but it's always there.

\r\nOh, "what series of tubes," did you ask?
\r\n
\r\nWhy, this one:
\r\n
\r\n
\r\nThank you, Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska. You, sir, should never ever speak in public again.
\r\nTo sum up, Guild Wars is awesome, it's free, we totally like it, and I will put up screenshots after a while.
