The WOW post made me wonder if there are any local UO players around? I've been playing for about 8 years.

It means Ultima Online. It's a mmo, massive-multiplay online game. I never played that one before. I'd like to try it though. Everyone I know that has played it said it was cool. I'll have to check it out and get back with ya on that Leigh Ann.

I'm sure they're many UO players in the surrounding area. How much is UO per month?

It's now $12.99 a month.It was $9.99 a month when we started. (Husband also plays.)I love the game. It suits many play styles. (Crafters, PVM, PVP)

What do I need to get started? It looks like UO has alot of expansions. I would like to check it out, but I'd like to know if they have something like an all-in-one pack or if I just need to get the original game.

If you buy the lastest expansion, it should have everything you need. With UO, if you don't have all the expansions, you do miss out on alot. Mondain's Legacy is the lastest expansion I can think of right now. Just check to make sure. Check out http://uo.stratics.com/ to read up on the different shards. I find this a better website for information than the actual game site uo.com.
