LINKS

Shul'Zan's friends

Copains-copains: La gang su'l net! - Our bunch of little madmen (and women)'s haven I affectionately call the party calendar. Also used to post news about each other and generally keeping up to date with what's happening among herd despite the distance. *snif*
The Dark Side of Oblivion - Ob's realm. Pretty creepy in there. Y'know, don't venture in there if you're feeling down. Under construction. But usually she's not like that in real life. :)

Video games

General

The Gamespy Network Homepage - The Gamespay Network hosts tons of websites covering all the hottest titles ever, plus it has some cool comics and is actually very entertaining to browse.
Gamespot - Has reviews and previews of PC and console releases as well as upcoming titles. ... What the hell am I doing?! Everyone knows Gamespot, damnit!! A must-see for any gamer!

Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Games (MMORPGs)

Ultima Online top 200 shards - There's something for everyone in there, from hardcore RP'ers to stupid powergaming morons. Oops!
Imagine Nation - One of the shards I'm currently (19/05/01) playing on while waiting for The World of Dreams to accept me in. *grumbles* Promotes roleplay, but I haven't seen any yet.
The World of Dreams - Another interesting UO shard, but long to get accepted... The first admin was an eScript genius: new skill system, tons of custom stuff and... working boats!!!
Risinjuukara, land of the rising sun - Nice roleplaying shard with an oriental theme.
Grey Company Homepage - A famous UO group responsible of many achievements on OSI. Among others, there's the Tel'Mallen circle, where you can find elvish dictionaries.
Star Wars Galaxies - An awesome-looking MMORPG based on the classical Star Wars (not that crappy Phantom Menace thing).
Anarchy Online - At last, a sci-fi MMORPG! This upcoming game seems utterly jaw-dropping.
Glitchless - A group responsible of the development of Dawn, a very promising MMORPG, if it ever comes out. I do hope so much they change all the graphics though. *sighs*
Shadowbane - Yet another upcoming great-looking MMORPG. Damn, which one's gonna be the best? They all look so good! *cries*

Roleplaying Games

Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption - Great game. Diablo meets Baldur's Gate and Nightmare Creatures. Based on the tabletop RPG of the same name from White Wolf. Revolutionizes multiplayer with the introduction of the Story Teller. Awesome music. Awesome storyline. Awesome everything. AAAAARGH! *leaps on his cat and sucks him dry out of blood*

ClassicGaming - The nostalgics' heaven.
Cherry Roms - A good-looking emulation site with a large database containing a few working roms. Fortunately, it has some good links.
Dark Chaos - My first emulation source. Fast and reliable, it's been running for a long time and hosts quite a lot of roms, all working.

Unsorted

Peroxide - A cool group of developers plan to remake Ultima 1 with today's technology. The lead programmer also wrote extensive C++ programming tutorials. Not for newbies like me though.
