Gaming

After watching the back of my wife's head for six months, I gave it a try. I'd never played an MMO before, and expected to lose interest within a few days or weeks, as always happens with computer games.

EVE's...different. Hooking up with the right crew may be important, as the learning curve is steep and the tutorials incomplete.

It's SO PRETTY. I'm a ship-spinner first and foremost, and enjoy capturing swank images like those in the OP. I dig battleships with all those slots to fill. I like fleeting up for missioning or just mining. Tonight we'll gather in an ice belt and carve out huge glacial masses to sell or to convert to fuel blocks for our control tower.

We think we'll fight in more incursions in the new alliance we just formed, and may spend a lot o time in a "pocket" of hi-sec space surrounded by low, where a lot of anomalies can be found and farmed.

I dig EVE. See y'all in Iceland for Fanfest '13!
