Wait, if you already own COH, why wouldn't you want to upgrade it?

Normally you would upgrade, but if you didn't you'ld have two seperate
accounts. That would let you play both games at the same time.

Yeah, i guess if you want to beat up on the missus in pvp that could be
fun. :P

This is extremely good news, long overdue. I've been rather unhappy
that they were apparently going to create what would have essentially
been the first MMORPG expansion pack with a monthly fee (not that I'm
playing at this time, but still...) I always considered it a given
that they'd combine the payment for the 2 games somehow, something
like 1 game for $14.95/month, or both for $19.95/month. I guess there
was enough unhappy consumers that they gave up on that idea. Very
good news for gamers, and maybe enough to tempt me into giving CoV a
go...

That makes me wonder...
can you hook up two mice to a PC and get 2 mouse cursors in windows?
That would rock. Two fisted surfing.

It's the worst Counterstrike clone I've ever seen.
Damn impressive bash-em-up, though. Normally I suck mightily at arcade
games, but this one has enough good stuff (and variable difficulty levels)
to keep me coming back. Plus it's even got a "weapon master" mode where you
travel around the countryside on some quest or other, picking up phat lewt
and XP. So it's even an RPG, of sorts!
