yahoo has an article about whats the next big mmo after WoW
http://videogames.yahoo.com/feature/lif ... ft-/532197

i looked at the videos and i think warhammer looks the coolest (it's on the 2nd page). i just tried signing up for the beta at https://betacenter.eamythic.com/login.php

does anyone else have an opinion on any of these upcoming gamez?





warhammer looks like a grown up version of WoW

I've heard rumors, forget from where, but SE might be planning another multi-platform MMO. Whether or not it's FF will remain to be seen.

SE is panning a new MMO according to what i've read. They also licensed the Unreal 3 engine for it. Rumors say its not Final Fantasy though but they're aiming for PS3 360 and PC.

People I work with play it. Sounds retarded to me.

Take this quiz!

Bioware is making an MMO? Holy shit.

Since it was free I downloaded and played it last night...this morning it was uninstalled if that tells you anything about this game.

maple story is what would be birthed if an emo fanboy successfully mated with a turbografx-16

i just tried fiesta online and runescape, they both suck in many ways.

one thing i definitely want is to not have to use the mouse, like in ffxi.
keyboard only! anyone know another game like that?

I heard it was supposed to be Dragon Quest. Also, the tech demo they did for PS3 or w/e was supposed to be it also. Nothing is confirmed afaik. DQ wouldnt be that bad, though I've never played a lot of them.

I want to try Huxley when it comes out. I've been waiting since I heard about it last year. The whole FPS thing with quests and upgrades sounds cool, but the PvP might be very unbalanced very quickly.

Maplestory was ok for a time, but its not that great and the people are dicks, tons of kill stealing and over camped spots.

Hellgate: London comes out this month. 360 and PC iirc.

Also, Pirate MMOs sound fun.

You mean Tollgate: London

The extra stuff to subscribed players is retarded, should be all or nothing.

Only a new FF online game or if the rumored World of Starcraft came to fruition would I really consider immersing myself into MMO's again.

Isn't there supposed to be some SE MMO in the works for all systems? Is it coming out in 2010 or something? They need to just zap FFXI and start over.

You're right, but I wont be satisfied with FFXI until I can play pup again, so I'll settle for sub-par MMOness.

Sword of the New World Trying this out after I get download. You control 3 characters at the same time, so sounds sorta interesting, but got bad reviews. At least its free.

vvv any suggestions???
-----------------------------------------------------
here is the top criteria for my selection of a mmo if i even decide to play one:


i don't want it to have a WoW-like interface.
for instance, i want it to be possible to use the keyboard almost exclusively. not the mouse. i dont want to click on icons to use skills, and i dont want use the mouse to move, i want to use a ffxi-like interface of menus and text, and the arrow keys to move around and to swivel the camera.

seems like all mmo games now have that WoW-like interface, especially the crappy free ones.

and whats the deal with PC games lately? Nothing has come out for a while. the only game on the shelf is bioshock, and the gameplay movies make me not want it. i've cycled through so many games lately, and none of them keep my interest for more than a day or two.
-----------------------------------------------------
^^^ any suggestions???

They all have mouse-click interfaces because they're PC games, not console games masquerading as PC games

last i checked, keyboards were just as common as mice.
