Age Of Conan Subscriptions Well Above 100,000?

It’s been a long time since we heard the latest numbers for Funcom’s Age of Conan, however with the release of update 6 and their guild ranking system, we can now guesstimate how many subscribers AoC really has.   As I did last week with CrimeCraft when I guesstimated there numbers were below 10,000, I went [...]

CrimeCraft Under 10,000 Users?

Not too long ago I speculated that CrimeCraft might be in trouble when they announced back in Oct 09 they would start to offer an free subscription option. Today, I was browsing around CrimeCraft’s website and noticed they had a leaderboard setup for individual players and gangs.   So I decided to add up the numbers [...]

Ok we can breathe now. I may have jumped the gun on this one!

Thievery and Shenanigans

As I sit here and take my pen to parchment, I want to discuss account security. Recently a few people I know in game have had their accounts hacked. One of these fine people has no idea about secure passwords or virus scanners or anything related to computer security. He was probably a victim of [...]

Diablo 3 the Last Non-MMO Diablo?

Blizzard Entering Powerleveling, Account and Gold Selling Market?

In a recent post at Worldofwar.net, they mentioned something about “Paid Character Customization” which frankly I’m surprised more people haven’t been talking about.
Jay Allen Brack was asked about the Paid Character Customisation that has been found in the game files. At first, he dismissed the question, and would not comment on it, then a [...]

Could Diablo 3 Be Announced Soon?

We here at MMOCrunch are no strangers to speculation, as can be noted by our past experiences with the ponderings over the existence of Diablo 3. Personally, I have no doubt in my mind that Blizzard is working on it even as I write. Unfortunately, that doesn’t mean that it’s been officially announced. Blizzard, being [...]

Civilization MMO in the Works?

We all know that there is talks about a BioShock MMO. However, what hasn’t been overly reported on, as of yet, is that it appears that Civilization is also up for the same consideration. According to this Take2 report (via MTV) it would appear that there is a chance that we may get to see [...]

Call of Duty and GTA MMO?

Well it seems like just about everyone wants to make a MMO these days. A few days ago EGM did an interview with Rockstar founder, Sam Houser, who had this to day about a possible GTA MMO.

And a few days before that CEO [...]
