Ten F2P MMORPG Gripes
Jul 15th
The massively multiplayer online RPG: Some swear by it, and some call it a detriment to society, breeding a world of hermits.

It’s been something that’s been happening since the days of the GBA for me. Games for me come and go way too quickly and I find myself changing games faster than some of my friends change girlfriends. (I seriously wish I was joking about that… Fortunately those people don’t visit my blog… yet.)
So, let’s very quickly go over 10 games that I haven’t beat and should go back and finish.
