Warcraft 2 was the main reason I set up a Lan. It had simple enough controls that my wife could play w/o it getting to her arthritis too bad, yet it was challenging enough mentally that she didn't get bored. She also got a kick out of changing the sound files and not telling me. Mostly she liked the fact that she could play along side me against the computer.
She waited and Jones'd for Warcraft3. I got too busy. When it finally came out, she was in line at the store that morning. I managed to get a couple of hours in everynight for a couple of weeks while we played through the game. Since then I think we've only played a few times, and have been teaching my nephews strategy. The tutorial is written well enough that my impatient 6yo neph. did excellent.
With any luck, the housing market will slow down up here and we'll have some time to play again, but the way it's going, the expansion pack will be in the bargain bin by then.
OT-overtime is a wonderful thing when you see your paycheck. But really shi**y when it puts you up 3 or 4 tax brackets.
