yeah, xfire, yo can launch all the games you have installed, chat ingame, without the hassle to alt+tab and go on msn messenger or yahoo! and you can take screenshots, chat with your friends with mic, take video screenshots, and much more. Track what your friend is playing and everything! If i have convinced you enough and you have it or would like to get it, http://www.xfire.com

I avoid WoW.. it's tempting, but I already have an internet addiction. I don't need to make it worse.

I have never played an MMO, RPG or otherwise, paying a monthly subscription to a game I don't know if I will have time to play never appealed to me. With TF2 UT2K4 and the like you can just play when you like, it dosn't matter if you don't play for a month (except that you will be out of practice).

@jonhill987
there's actually some mmorpgs that are free2play, like Pirate King Online or Tales of Pirates (same game, but i think one of them is an asian server). although, i only got to play around an hour of the game, let's just say i've gotten tired of mmorpg communities.

The only game I might want to play online is Chess (don't know if you saw my topic yesterday). But still need more information on how it works!

ah yes, I remember. I fear I never really had the opportunity to play the game much, odds are you could felt me (er, um, checkmate me) in 9 moves or less.
