Study Says Majority of MMO Players Are Gender Benders
According to Gender Swapping And Socializing In Cyberspace: An Exploratory Study, 68% of female MMO players and 54% of male players played characters of the opposite gender.

Continue reading...The Free MMORPG Round-Up 1: It Came From Korea
There are a great many free MMORPGs out there on the interwebs, and let’s face it: most of them are garbage. How are you supposed to know which of them are worth your hard-earned cash hard drive space and which ones aren’t worth the webspace they’re stored on? In the first of a series [...]

Funcom’s official Anarchy Online community site has the first details on the game’s new tiered pricing scheme.

Fury, the PvP MMO that already tried to coax potential subscribers by offering free, week-long trials, will be going completely free to play as of December 14.

Regardless of your opinion of the genre, you’ve got to give City of Heroes’ developer Cryptic Studios credit for producing something other than another fantasy or sci-fi themed MMORPG. This newest video for the game’s latest free expansion, titled Issue 11: A Stitch in Time, introduces players to Mender Silos and his time traveling [...]
Continue reading...Warbirds/Confirmed Kill: First true MMO changed gaming, life forever.

Continue reading...Eve Online Gets Super Computer, Free Expansion
Eve Online is basically Ultima Online in space. This is a good thing. Too few MMOs have aped UO’s unprecedented freedom, opting instead to follow the strict leveling treadmill structure of Everquest. Flying in the face of convention has benefited Iceland’s CCP Games, with Eve Online currently sporting 195,000 subscribers and with a single server [...]

Continue reading...RF Online Set Free
Chances are you’ve never heard of RF Online. Codemasters released the South Korean-developed MMORPG over a year ago, but it never quite found an audience outside of its homeland. Perhaps that’s why Codemasters has opted to rerelease the title as a completely free download with no monthly fee. That’s right, RF Online [...]
