  Id think HTC could make a space game out of AH. Turn off the gravity and have black space. He already made some spaceships.

Im just preying that Fallout doesnt go MMO and Bethesda wins its court deal.  :pray
'

Fallout is going the MMO route, regardless if Interplay wins the lawsuit or not.  The only reason Bethesda is trying to stop Interplay from making it isn't so it will never see the light if day, it's because Bethesda wants to do it themselves.

Todd howard has already said they would never make fallout into an MMO because he felt it would take attention away from the games, as well as screw up the "Fallout bible".

I played the open weekend beta  a cpl weeks ago and thought the game  was fun. The story lines  we fun for the class I played. It is an mmo tho so your  gonna sink a lot of time into it to get anywhere.  Think Kotor online. Not a  very sandbox game but I suppose they dumbed it down some  to make it accesible  to  more people. If you're not sure of playing it  wait a little while for  a trial to be offered. If you rregistered on the website before nov get in this weekends beta. Only thing I really want them to add is  a bounty hunting system like  star Wars Galaxies had.

That game IS a clone of SWG post- NGE that tries to put some pre-NGE features in (and fails) along with updated graphics and console-like shooter gameplay.

Its not a boring game its just... nothing new, nothing original. A rehash of what has come before re-marketed with better graphics.

It looks pretty good.  Bioware has done some great things in the past, so I wouldn't be to worried about it being a turd..

Question-  You mention shooter game play...  Do they actually have to aim their shots, and can you get out of the way of them?  Or is it the old style like WoW where they activate the 'shoot' power and dice decide whether they hit or miss?

Kotoro=6/10 , it offers nothing new or unique...doesn't mush feel like the Star Wars universe to me...looks right , just something missing . And worst of all no space fighting . how can you have a Star Wars game with no space battles ? But I have to admit I didn't think much of KOTOR to begin with . Technically speaking the game is very well done . I could play the game on a computer far below recomended specs , didn't run well but it did run well enough to play with not too much trouble . I did like the interface after I got used to it , very easy to use . Not a bad game , but not one I want to spend any money on . My recomendation , wait fo it to go FTP .
Sooo....What , are those guys here to kill you because God forgot too ?

No game is  great on launch day. It's the foundation of the game on launch that will make or break it  and  the  speed at which the devs make  updates/changes or add content. Look at APB $120 Million was spent on it nothing was added now its free to play.
