That's before you start paying to enhance your computer or improve your arsenal of weapons. I imagine that communication is more limited than in MSN or chatrooms, unless you take your friendship there.

Not really, for example WoW is a MMORPG. meaning you interact with real humans. not exactly socialising in the typical world view. But it can be said of as another mode of communication like msn or the phone instead of meeting up in person.

i still prefer the old fashioned way of a face-to-face meeting, over a meal or cuppa.
the art of conversation is dying...
and for the computer games, it's like work isn't it? not really socialising.. everyone's trying to whack the giant pixel monster and gain imaginary gold and XP points... and trying not to let the sprite vanish...
anyway, guys... 4th July.. let's go donate blood?

Definitely not.
One of the things I learnt whenever I went on outings with you guys is that I must be prepared to burn a hole in my pocket.
