The trouble with goals in MMOs

One of the major problems of a game in which you can do anything is that... well, there's not necessarily much of a reason to do anything.

The Daily Grind: I've been meaning to tell you...

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day if you're in the United States, which makes it special. (If you live in the rest of the world, tomorrow is Thursday and not particularly special, but bear with us.)

Breakfast Topic: How many of you play on a Mac?

This was a reader suggestion, and a good one: Zvonimir wants to know how many of us WoW players use a Mac to play the game. Blizzard has steadfastly put out Mac and Windows versions of all their games ever since the original Warcraft , but this is not at all the norm in the industry. There are only a few other major MMOs I can think of that even have official Mac versions ( EVE , Warhammer , City...
