Another One Bites the Dust

Looking back on our MMO-society, it is a very uncommon event for an MMORPG to get cancelled. I’m not talking about cancelled during development, or any of that hogwash.

Incoming! MMORPGs of 2008

With a new year coming upon us we have the incredible opportunity to experience new MMORPGs. It was the same last year, as we were all antipating the releases of Tabula Rasa, Lord of the Rings Online, Vanguard Saga of Heroes, and Warhammer Online (still). This year we have a bunch more titles coming, and there is […]
