its fascinating to me - i was there for the beginning (i remember pestering mom for coin to play pong in this joint down the street) to now, and this series brought up a lot of great memories!

the channel plans on running the entire series on the 21st, if anyone is interested......

Ah I did actually get to see it while flipping through channels. Was very interesting to see them mention those popular MMOs like EverQuest and WOW. Hmmm shame HZ is too small and unknown of a game, would have been interesting to see that in there. Maybe one day, they will decribe the rocky start, the challenges and finally the success that puts it right up there as one of the most popular games! (now that is positive thinking!)

just reading the synopses was interesting too, thanks for pointing this out
