![]() Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning $19.99 I had high hopes for Warhammer. The ideas in it are very good, and this game could have been a killer. After playing it for a year, having left once and come back, I am reluctantly leaving it again. The problem that Warhammer has been unable to resolve is player number imbalances on the servers. I've played on two servers and they both have the same problem, way more players playing the Destruction "bad guys" than playing for Order. Although I don't know the actual numbers, the Order players are so outnumbered that they have practically no chance of winning in the core "open RvR", PvP fighting. Two nights this week I was unable to find any open RvR action because all the Order player had simply left. Most of the time, Order will try to get a warband going for PvP, and will immediately be run over by Destruction warbands with twice as many players. I believe the problem is self perpetuating because new players and existing Order players will start Destruction characters to be on the winning side, making the imbalances worse. I've played a Destruction character also, and it got boring fast also when there is no opposition. If the trend continues, and it does appear to be getting worse, soon all the players will be on one side only. Good PvP combat should depend on teamwork and skill, not just having more fighters than the other side. This is a serious flaw in what could have been a very good game. As it is, there is little enjoyment and a lot of frustration. ![]() Star Trek Online Collectors Edition $79.99 Escape to the immersive multiplayer Star Trek universe in Star Trek Online.

I typed it into my Xbox 360 and BLAMMO I had the 1600 credits. It seems unfair that you can't purchase with an amazon gift card, as other people claimed. I used my debit/credit card and had no problem. |
