My First Ever Gaming PC is Coming!!

So I finally broke down and got a real computer!! After about 2 months of playing WoW at less the recommended specs, I figured it was time to bulk up my system. And i'm not talking about more RAM or a better graphics card, i'm looking at a whole new machine entirely. I have one of my buddies building it right now and I should have it here in my possession in about a week. Here is a the rundown of what im getting:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ 2.4ghz 512KB

BFG Tech GeForce 7600GT 256mb 128-bit PCI-E (two of them running in SLI mode)

16x DVD-ROM/48x CD-ROM

NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard

2gb DDR RAM

250gb Hard Drive

650W Power Supply

So yeah I'm pretty freakin excited!! Gonna go this weekend and pick up the essential PC games; Battlefield 2142, Half-Life 2, Star Wars: Battlefront (an old fav!), etc. Oh man so excited!!! Finally, after being a console gamer for almost 20 years, I step into the world of "real" PC gaming.

The Burning Crusade Trailer

Last night, at the 2006 VGA Awards, many new games had their respective trailers shown off for the first time. Among these were such upcoming greats as Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, and Bioshock. With both trailers showing a very enthusiastic response from the audience. But one trailer stood out among the rest, a trailer that was also accompanied by a chorus ensemble and many drooling fans. That would be the World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade trailer.

It opened near the end of the show, despite being advertised all night that it was "coming up next." The trailer opens with a roaming shot forward on a dusty plain, in the distance you see a faint blue light. As we move closer to the light, we see that it is actually the Dark Portal swirling around in all its glory. A looming voice booms that he has been sealed away for years and is now been angered that we want to enter "his" realm.

The trailer then moves to the new races and a little glimpse into what the Draenei and the Blood Elves are about. Very cool btw! From there we strike forward into many powerful battles involving the Draenei, Orcs, Blood Elves, Undead, and more, with the battles focusing on both the melee and the magic aspects of battle.

All in all a very powerful trailer and one that has left me very excited for January to come. With the new "Before the Storm" patch being released and incorporating a bunch of the upcoming features from the Burning Crusade expansion, things are looking up for Azeroth once again. Are you ready to step through the Dark Portal? Maybe, and maybe not!
