Well I played EnB for a few months with it becoming progressively less fun
as they got closer to the release date. I'm in the EVE test now but I've yet
to be able to download it and give it a go. Thanks for the info tho, guess
I'll try looking around for a good group to game with. EnB wasn't too bad if
you found a few good people but solo wasn't impossible either.
