Bug free? I don't know what games you're playing, but I've *never* played something that was bug free on release day.

Funcom actually has some great games. Anarchy Online is pretty good, but I'd recommend Longest Journey and Dreamfall. I have high hopes for Secret World and hope it makes it to release. The "extreme sports MMO" is, as far as I can tell, something they're doing on the side with national cultural grant monies. Essentially, Ragnar Tornquist turns out good games, and I'd highly recommend him.
