A few days ago the news broke that Bigpoint, a German developer, will be launching a Battlestar Galactica MMO later on in the year. My immediate thoughts were that they were talking about a full blown sci-fi MMO like EVE or Jumpgate Evolution but it turns out it’s just a free-2-player browser based game.
I say [...]
Playing EVE Online again has made me feel something I haven’t felt in quite some time. Fear. It’s a strange emotion to feel when playing a computer game but it’s also quite a welcome one. I’m by no means a masochist who enjoys punishing myself but I do like feeling emotionally connected and immersed in [...]
It’s been another fiery week in the vivacious world of MMORPG blogging. From Allods Online to guild dramas to Activison embracing Nazism (Godwin’s Law, strike one), there’s been plenty of interesting banter for those such inclined to read.
Keen monitors the price drops in the Allods Online cash shop. Seems like a step in the right [...]
Welcome back weeks are always a great way to tempt old players back to long forgotten MMORPGs and yesterday I received an email from Codemasters offering me a free 7 days of Lord of the Rings Online starting Monday 8th March. Top it off, they’re also advertising a discounted 3 month subscription for only £17.97/€25.38 [...]
Whilst writing yesterdays article, I noticed something a little odd about Ten Ton Hammer’s 2009 MMO awards (note that their tagline was “Recoginizing excellence in the MMOGs of 2009″): their award for best RPG went to… Dragon Age: Origins?
DA:O is a great game and deserves recognition but I was slightly baffled as to why it [...]
I did a jig of joy this morning as I awoke to an email from my team of Norwegian designer monkeys containing a lovely favicon for my blog. At last, I no longer need to deal with the shame of lacking a tiny browser icon for my site! Take that Internet!
Of course, it’s also that [...]
There really isn’t much to be known about the upcoming Warhammer 40K MMORPG or even if it will ever materialise (let’s face it, it’s not uncommon for MMOs to die before even hitting the shelves). Still, after the disappointing Warhammer Online MMO from 2008, I’m hoping for a better implementation of such an exciting IP.
Although [...]
IGN PC had an article today with a quote from THQ President and CEO Brian Farrell in which he states that the forthcoming Warhammer 40K MMORPG won’t be competing with World of Warcraft.
Ex-squeeze me? Baking powder? Isn’t that a little like saying Burger King doesn’t compete with KFC or the Xbox 360 doesn’t compete with [...]
It’s that time of the week again where I slack off from blogging and instead highlight some of the mostly MMORPG related wonders of the web from the past week. Yep, I know what you’re thinking - getting listed here is like winning an Oscar, only better right? Damn straight.
A lot of bloggers this week [...]
Every so often the gold farming/selling/buying debate rears it’s ugly head and sparks off a series of blog articles throughout the Interweb. Recently Tobold and Gevlon got stuck into the topic again and even managed to necromance one of a series of articles I wrote last year about the subject (a self-confessed gold seller posted [...]
