Isn’t it Time for a Planetside 2?

There is one MMO that no matter how many times I unsub, I always end up returning to it a few months/years later. It’s not World of Warcraft, or Everquest; I have absolutely no desire to ever return to either of those games. The game I am talking about is Planetside. Time and again I […]

Not a Single MMO in GameRanking’s Top 100 (Anymore)

The MMO genre of gaming is not a particularly young one. In fact, I’d say it’s only a few years younger than the modern RTS and FPS genres (I remember playing my very first graphical MMO in 1997). So, suffice it to say, I was a bit surprised when I found out that not one […]

The Downside of Free Trials

There are many free MMO trials out there for you to enjoy. It seems to be an advent that has occurred in the MMO gaming space that works fairly well for most developers out there. After all, they attract gamers who want to try something new and, in turn, the developer gets the chance to […]

Could Microsoft be Publishing APB?

Before I begin, let me clarify that I do not know anybody who works in the higher ups at either Realtime Worlds, or Microsoft Game Studios. This entire post in generally just pure speculation given by the recent courses of action by the two companies in the last few months.
Anyways, now that’s out of the […]

A Look at Microsoft and MMOs: 3-0 Cancels

Many of you may not know it, but Microsoft has actually had their hands in quite a few MMORPG projects within the past few years. No stranger to the videogame marketplace in general, it only seemed to make sense that one of the largest providers of consoles and games would also begin to dabble in […]

MMO Resell: Why Not?

One of the most profitable businesses in the video games industry today is not a developer, designer, publisher, or even console manufacturer. Not to say all of the aforementioned are unsuccessful, but certainly they have not yet achieved the same kind of success as this one. In today’s video gaming world, GameStop reigns supreme as […]

Of MMOs and Girlfriends

There are two major pulling factors in my life right now (outside of work): my girlfriend and videogames. I may just be a sucker for pretty eyes, but when it comes down to it my girlfriend always comes first. If she wants to watch a movie and I want to play a game we will […]
