I wish... (blogging, gaming)

That there was a way in Blogger to show categories of posts. J is planning on moving to TypePad over the Summer, I may do the same, but it won't be until the Fall.
I am not a huge fan of the Massive Multiplayer Online Game genre. I've never played one. I've never really gamed online much anyway - my aim's too bad to really compete in online deathmatch, I've never really had a group of people I'd play NWN with online and it's hard to make those connections in the wired for me. Also, I'm too cheap to fork over a monthly fee, and I'm honestly scared of the genre anyway. I've known people from back in my DirecTV life who were so hooked on EverQuest that I'm sure it caused psychological damage. (Getting outside occasionally so the sun provides you with vital vitamins is a good thing - helps prevent depression)
Having said that, there have been a few of them that have caught my imagination, and the latest one is City of Heroes. I saw a beta of it running at a friends place, and it looks like a lot of fun. I think I'd be able to play this one, and really get into it (which is admittedly scary). The one gripe I've consistently heard is that you will not be able to play villains, only Heroes.
So, I was reading Penny Arcade today, when I saw something interesting. Apparently, NC Soft will be showing a new game at E3. Get ready for City of Villains. Some people I know will be happy to hear that.

UPDATE: Apparently City of Villains will be an expansion for City of Heroes, and not a seperate game.
