first….now we are talkin free stuff

Hehe been waiting for this to happen for a long time… well atleast I get what I wanted.
This mmo doin very well for the 1st 2-4 months then falling apart so free to play only gonna be matter of time.
Sure gonna play this till Diablo3 came out.
Now what im waiting for is… for Rift mmo to be free to play micro transaction based too. It will happen & it will be a HUGE success.
Rift will follow the same strategy down the road… maybe in another 1-3 years time. Poor thing… Blizzard seems to win everything & when their new mmo released… history will repeat itself again. All the victory for Blizzard.
Now im not sure monopoly from Blizzard/WOW is a good thing or not… its hurting the industry badly lol.
Atleast we will get some awesome free to play mmo with lots of content down the road.
If you like casual free to play mmo then try Guild Wars or wait for Guild Wars 2.
Thats about it. im really bored of WOW after hard core raiding for 2 years but thats the very best mmo I ever played till now… maybe ever till the next mmo Blizzard came out with.
I dont think Star Wars mmo from Bioware can compete with this monster… it may end up with the free to play fate…
Hopefully this includes both the PC and PS3 version. I’ll end up picking it up if that’s the case.
*edit*
Clicking on the source, yeah. It’s both PS3 and PC. Awesome.
I put honestly about 3000 hours into WOW. I haven’t played this, but I have a blutooth wireless keyboard I use in Home, and I know the basics of MMO’s. For free, this might be worth checking out. My friend keeps telling me to get this game. Maybe He’ll get his wish. LOL, but there are too many games coming out. I’m overloaded. I’m installing Gears as I type. I cant wait.
Ok, maybe its time for me to jump in.

this game just moved up to must pre-order. I wish Demons Souls & Dark Souls would do the same thing. it turns me off when my games get to hard.

I can’t find the orginal story. Looks interesting I wanna see what crytek can do with Homfront.
I had a blast with the DCUO beta awhile back. Might give this a shot.
