Alot of the dickheads are kids. Unless you play with friends, you cant really filter out assholes from online gaming-- which turns me away from online gaming actually and why I solo MMOs. Pay it forward. Return the kindness and you might get it back.
Mass Effect 1 is really great. It has it's problems like the janky combat, and some hate the Mako sections, but I think they sould be overlooked and just enjoy the story and characters. One of my favorite games. I think it's better in many ways than Mass Effect 2, but that's just my opinion.
The only MMOs I subbed for were FF11 and FF14. I didnt sub for a long time. Just here and there, but I wasn't disappointed with the content. There are plenty of free MMOs out there that are really good as well. That damned South Park trolled us all. 
I might buy it for $10. What the hell, why not? I'll always have it in case I decide to play. I doubt I'd get very far in 30 days, but I'd like to check it out anyhow. Pandaria is still separate though, also $10. The new expansion will be like $50 I think.
Thats too bad about FF14. It's such a good game. I stopped when I finished the main story, and was kind of pissed that player housing was never implemented. I was also hoping for a new bucaneer class with guns, but oh well. I might check out the new update soon. Guild Wars 2 is starting their next season next month, and The Secret World is still totally rad!
You can try it free up to level 20. No credit card required. Just create an account on Blizzard and DL the client. 
It's really cheap now on both PC and console, and it's pretty long so making time to play is the only excuse. Plus I just read that even more patches were released for the game recently, so yup!
I read a lot of really good things about the first game. It's currently on sale on Steam for like 2 dollars.
Yeah the game branches off in the second chapter, so you would have to play it twice to see all of the events play out.I liked the dual blade combat. Kind of like Devil May Cry.
Finishing up the first one will make the 2nd game make a lot more sense actually. The story has many twists and characters to follow.
Cool! I got last wish on my ebook Reader! Any other game related books you'd recommend?
