The only issue is... my Internet is so slow and unpredictable (Ok, maybe that is because I live in Africa) so, just walking away from my PC could be ... days of no gaming! So is there not another way of installing the patches 'manually' and knowing what the outcome will be.

Has anyone patched WoW & WoW:BC manually?

Buying PCs and games here in Namibia - Africa is an expensive task/hobby/mission/crusade! So, this is how I do it...

I am a part time youth minister, private guitar teacher, own my own multimedia company and have started a gaming Website ( www.noize.com.na ), host LANs and do the odd DJ job at corp functions and weddings. Basically whatever it takes... burn the candle at both ends... sort of like my own 'Burning Crusade'!

You can take any Blizzard game and the cinematics will be great! StarCraft - ground breaking graphics for it's time with a huge sense of humour! WOW: Burning Crusade - amazing graphics with intense effects. So in terms of cinematics related to game play, Blizzard is king!

 But for trailers and teasers... the cinematics for Halo: 3 and Halo: Wars are top notch!

Can anyone help?

 I have just bought World of Warcraft and Burning Crusade, and have downloaded all the latest (and old) patches - Patch 2.0.12 being the latest - and want to know three things:

*1 = Must I first install both the game and the expansion before patching with 2.0.12

*2 = Do I need to patch all the old patches first and then 2.0.12

*3 = Can I still play the original version once I have installed the expansion.

I don't want to have to uninstall and reinstall and then patch everything incase I mess it up... Please post any help or tips you might have.

Thanks!

The new (if it is true) StarCraft - be it StarCraft 2, Ghost or World of StarCraft!

I saw a huge change in my level of game-play when I got my Logitech G5 mouse and G15 keyboard... have any of you had the same experience or does it not matter to you what mouse or keyboard you use?
