Anyone else notice that the music for this was from Villains, yet all the footage was heroes?

is there anywhere else I can see this video?

We'll have that video hosted on our site soon. It's just up on MMORPG.com as a first look exclusive for them.

To elaborate, if you're using a non-Internet Explorer broswer or non-Windows computer, you need a WMP (Windows Media Player) add-on or plugin for your browser.

I'm not sure if Opera or Safari has one, but here's the Firefox WMP plugin:

WMP plugin for Firefox at port25.technet.com

Or, if you don't want the hassle, wait till L_H et al put it on the CoX home pages. They usually put both the WMP and QT (Apple QuickTime) version for whatever one has.

Crap. I've been saying it wrong the whole time?

Bah, I guess Mr. Ancient Civilizations major would know better than I

Ah. More's the pity then (unless they're not blocking web proxy... )

I suppose you all thought Kratos was pronounced Krah-tos.

Anyway, send the vid to X-Play, they can't seem to find enough fillers in the current dearth of new releases.

I hope this gets added to the Downloads section sometime with a regular HTTP link. Every time I see Microsoft Media Services link I have to go fishing around for the program that lets me download them

The people of a city decide how something's pronounced, not its founders. That's why we say "Tuh-ronna" instead of Toronto, and why Tah-lohs is right, not Tay-los.

Mischief · 05-16-2007 09:00 AM

Nice video. Well made.

This gets into the philosophy of the nature of language, which my ex and I constantly debated.

My ex contended that the original, intended structure of the word is the concrete, unwaivering usage and pronounciation of it. I've contended that the word's definition and usage is hingent entirely on the majority of the users of the language.

It all boils down to one thing, really... Do YOU think Idaho is a word?

Yes Opera does have a plugin as well, you have to use the Netscape plugin Plugin in order to view it, just download the plugin, but instead of installing thru the exe file, you have to extract it to Opera/Plugins. Hope that helps the other Opera users.. Cool vid btw

actually where you come from plays a big part of how you pronounce words you've never seen or heard before.

Nice vid btw
