I came down with a nasty cold on Thursday which has affected the last part of my week of vacation and has left me feeling miserable.
Today I thought I'd try a new game. Most of my friends are leaving WoW and going to Star Wars: The Old Republic. Robert sent me a 7 day free trial so I thought I'd try it. Trying to create an account should have been my first clue. It took an hour and a half and two calls to customer service. Then it took 3 hours to download and so far I've managed to play for 30 second bouts before it either freezes the game, freezes the video, or freezes the entire computer. No one I've talked to is having any of these problems so my "Gaming" computer is not running the game. Major suckage! So no only do I feel like I've wasted a whole day trying to make this work, (it's been 6 hours now) I feel like we wasted money buying my computer.
Crap!
