Things I hope to see in Volume 2:

More coverage of MMORPG, Casual & Serious Games
More coverage in regards to the state of the industry and where it's going.

I have the same hopes... If I remember right it was mainly WoW that dominated the MMORPG section lol... I'd have to dig out my book to confirm that though lol..

edit; Not even WoW was in it /blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> There was one screenshot of Guild Wars(: Factions) in the book though! /biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' />

They did cover a bit of Guild Wars, but I'd like to see more coverage on the genre as a whole, simply because the MMORPG community itself is so huge. It will be interesting though, to see how much about GW makes it into the book. /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />
