    What is a guild to you? is another machinima from Nimii. In terms of recruitment videos, this quickly became an absolute favorite of mine. Not only does it do a good job of highlighting the guild as a unit, but the video itself is creative a fun. And while I'm definitely a fan of the animation, that's not what makes this video amazing to me. It's the voice. That's one of the best Freeman impressions I've ever heard in my life. I actually wondered, briefly, if this was some cut up and remix of his voice from other works. All in all, this ends up being an astoundingly good recruitment video. Interested in the wide world of machinima? We have new movies every weekday here on WoW Moviewatch! Have suggestions for machinima we ought to feature? Toss us an email at moviewatch@wowinsider.com.

    You know the seven deadly sins, right? The "Devil's Most Wanted" that pop up in Morgan Freeman movies from time to time? If nothing else, the seven deadly sins are an instructional list of words like "sloth" that nobody uses on a daily basis. Since we tend to take our real-world failings into virtual space, it stands to reason that our bad habits follow as well. So which of the seven deadly sins have you committed in MMOs as of late? Let's run down the list: Wrath: Have you wigged out on your guild, engaged in nerd rage, or cussed out your PUG? Greed: Are you never satisfied with your wealth and gear, but always need more, more, more? Pride: Do people know you as "that player who's always waving around his or her e-peen"? Lust: If there's a naked elf dancing on a mailbox, do you stop to look -- and take screenshots? Sloth: Are you too lazy to get off your butt and finish that major project in game that you've been putting off? Envy: Do you constantly find yourself on edge because other players have the cool uber-loot that you lack? Gluttony: Have you played a little too much -- OK, way too much -- when you know you have other things to be doing? Confess, my child. Confess and clear your virtual soul! Every morning, the Massively bloggers probe the minds of their readers with deep, thought-provoking questions about that most serious of topics: massively online gaming. We crave your opinions, so grab your caffeinated beverage of choice and chime in on today's Daily Grind!
