10-14-06 Let's see how long this will last...

I decided to make the switch to Xbox because I wanted to spare my poor PC the stress of playing this game... since I'm now on my 3rd video card.

So what did I do this morning? I created a new character on our crafting account named Picture and started powerleveling myself. Yeah... I know. Sometime I worry about myself :P

I have no idea how long this will last. If my previous history with alternate characters is any indication, she will be deleted in a week.

The only real down side to playing on Xbox is that I can't use a seperate program to capture screenshots and video. I am limited to just the basic screenshots that the game captures. I tried taking some last night and they turned out ok... but not nearly as nice as the ones I took using FRAPS.

But oh well. I can listen to music while I farm. I guess that alone is worth it. Oh and the fact that I can speak in a normal voice when I call Bob an ass rather than screaming it from 3 rooms away. The chat thing is pretty sweet. But so far the only person I have spoken with is Bob lol.

I do like this setup better though. I can research stuff without having to deal with the lag from Windower and I don't have to live in fear that my account will be banned. Cause that would suck. Can you imagine 3 years of effort going "poof"? I would be so lost. As bored as I am with this game I still think it is better than anything else out there and it beats the hell out of TV.

Anyway...
I'm gonna post a decent picture of Picture in case I need to use it for her obituary next week:
