Fires of London!!!

I'm excited to say Hellgate London is coming back.  This time as a F2P MMO.  I enjoyed playing it back when it was running and it'll be nice to see it running again.  It's a SciFi Fantasy MMO that deals with the darker side of life.  The gates of hell break open in London and you are the guardian who destroys the evil within.  The combat is very fun and I can't wait!

To the Core of Spiral

I haven't had the opportunity to play it yet but here is a pretty interesting browser based MMO called Spiral Knights.  I came acrossed it when I was looking at Browser MMOs through boredom lol.  It's free 2 Play and it's created by Sega.  It's pretty new considering it just got released this month.  The world is ever changing and it's built to be an ever expanding dungeon crawler to the center of the core.  To find out the secrets of the world.  So far it is completely free from the looks of things and your character isn't based upon any certain class.  You evolve by the weapons you use in your arsnal and you adapt to the area you are fighting in.  Should be pretty fun and when I get a chance to try it you'll be the first to hear it.

After giving the introductory a try it is pretty intuitive and sucked me in right away.  It's like a cross between Zelda and Megaman and I was highly impressed.  The wait time from registering and playing was about 30 seconds and it is worth trying.  I can't wait to get some more time to play :)

Cabal Of The Future

A few years back i was desperately searching for a new MMO to play and I was promptly suggested Cabal.  It never really worked  for me though because I had an inferior laptop at the time.  Now in the making is Cabal 2.  A promising look of graphics and action but not much is said about the game itself.  They say a picture is a thousand words but I've seen even that to be deceiving!  Even then this will probably be a cool game to check out in some free time after it's release.  It will most likely be free 2 play like it's counter part but who knows.

Vindictus Database!

I haven't really played it enough to talk too much about it but Vindictus also has a database.  From what I have played it's a pretty fun game and the story is pretty compelling.  The physics and action in the game is pretty intense and it's worth giving a try.  Plus it's free!

Japan Relief!

Global Agenda

Global Agenda is giving 100% of there proceeds from Global Agenda Purchases to American Red Cross's Japan Relief!  Also for 10$ that's practically a steal for such a great game.  The best part is that this MMO has NO monthly fees it's a great play and worth the buy.  Support the relief!

March PvP Madness!!!

I know I haven't talked about Aion at all but for any of you interested in where it's going right now you can get your old accounts activated starting March 24th thru March 31st.   They are doing a massive reactivation for old players so they can try to bring on the PvP.

March is starting off PvP Madness and it's supposed to reduce the normally high buffs and penalties that deter people from PvPing.  So play free and get your PvP on!

Blog App

Currently working on designing an app for your android phones out there so you can participate with IAMMMOGAMER on the go.  At the moment it's under construction :)  When it's done I'll be sure to tell you about it!

Here's an app for all of you Android users.  If I make one better I'll be sure to let you know!

8bit Hurray!

A very impress game called 8Bit is being designed by a bright individual name Aion.  I was very impressed with the easy design and ease into the game.  Plus lots of pretty cool people to hang around.  The mechanics are great and there are plenty of options to keep you busy for quite some time.  For some extra cash you can buy pieces to develop your character a bit more but the focus is that it doesn't go towards boosting your stats or anything.  it is simply to help the developer and to give you a more unique you.  I think this game is a must try for any of you out there that like to design and have fun.

You can design your own castle and defend it from evil monsters or you can even PvP in certain areas.  The choice is yours to what you actually do.  The graphics are a bit out dated for all you Unreal Engine fans but it's truly not about the realism.  It's just about having fun.  I think this is a great game and I recommend it!

To the Gamers Arsenal!

STEAM is a must have for ALL PC gamers.  I don't care if you play MMOs or not this is the best way for allot of things.  Getting connected with friends, getting involved in your favorite gaming community, keeping track of your games and best of all DISCOUNTS!  I can't tell you the hundreds of dollars I've saved waiting for great deals and nabbing it the second I can.  It's essentially the free connection of Xbox Live but for PC.  I also have a community site on steam called IAMMMOGAMER.  If it can become a big community we can then start associating things with it.  Perhaps a cross MMO guild or many other things. 

Frak! I've been hit!

Battlestar Galactica is a new MMO created by SyFy.  It's a browser based game and it's run surprisingly well.  Though I haven't seem to get any interest into it.  I haven't ever been much for flying in space.  You do get your own avatar and depending on which route you go Cylon or Human you still get to walk around and everything.  Being in a Raptor is pretty cool and the game play plays alot like EVE.  Though I think it's a little more involving. It's still in Beta and I don't think it's a huge hit so it might be a bad idea if you're looking for a crowd, but if you like Battlestar and you want to try something new this is certainly the way to do it and it's free!

APB: Reloaded Update!

So with a little bit of time spent it seems the game hasn't changed much at all.  They moved around some of the terminals and the tweaked some things here and there but ultimately it's pretty close to the same game.  The shooting is better and so is the driving.  I think ultimately it is a better game because of the tweaks but the questing still sucks.  The customization is still there and it's still off the chain.  For free this game is worth every penny spent :)

It's RELOADED!

Being accepted onto the streets of San Paro I will be giving you information about the new design of APB: Reloaded!  I really hope for some great changes considering the let down it was originally.  I can honestly say though it had THEE best customization I have ever had my hands on and I hope to see at least that still in the game.  Really the huge improvement needed before was the game.  After I actually get the game on my computer and get a chance to get in I'll get you informed!  But mind you it is still in Beta and anything can happen!  First wave here I come!

MMO For Your Mobile

SpaceTime Studios is the leader in MMO gaming on your mobile phones.  Currently out is Pocket Legends which is a pretty neat designed MMO based off of furry animals in your typical classes.  The game is free to play and has a cash shop for items.  There's isn't too many option for the game play and it's created to be relatively simple but it has a really nice concept and it run great on the Droid.

In the future SpaceTime Studios has a SciFi game planned called Blackstar.  Very little details are out on it but you can sign up at there website for more news.  It should be a pretty cool game and I'm looking forward to seeing what they can come up with.

Both these games are for the Ipad, Iphone and Android systems.

Pirates in SPACE!

An adventure for free and looks amazing!  Allods is a fantasy adventure you can't pass up.  With two dueling factions you level yourself up to an eventual dual in astral space.  Guild run ship float through astral space taking on amazing conflicts.

This is one of the most exciting free to play games I've ever joined.  I know usually I cringe at the sound of free to play but this one has been great from the beginning.  Unfortunately I haven't played enough to get into the end game details because I get drawn where my friends are.  This game is truly a beauty and if you want to try something new and don't want to spend a dime this is the game.

The graphics are comparable to WoW with it's cartoon look but it truly looks amazing.  Plus it's a lot of fun if you use 3d glasses :)

It is a European game meaning it's not the typical grind grind grind you see in Asian F2P mmos.  I think if you're looking at getting away from the well known this is the way to go!

Global Agenda a monster of SciFi

There are very few choices in the MMO for a truely good MMO.  Global Agenda takes the award for best in my book.  Although if you look at the traditional ideas of MMO it doesn't quite fit the build.  It's doesn't have a very extensive PVE element to it but it is there.  I personally love this game for it's elaborate PvP system.  It's one of the most exciting times I've had ever in PvP.  It has a perfect blend of swords and guns and can tailor to any play style.  There is flying with jetpacks which also adds an addition of fun to the mix.

Many of the players in game are pretty cool and are willing to work with you and have fun and unlike WoW you can actually finish a group PVE mission without worrying if people are going to continuously drop out.  Like I said though this games many goal is the PvP element.  Gear in the game is mainly just for show.  You could literally run around naked and be a great player.  The good thing about this system is that you can be how you want to be.  In order to have better stats you need to use these armor spheres and get good stats on your equipment.  Which is perfectly fine with me :) the fast paced game play reminds me of the good old days of Quake and Unreal Tournament.

There are four classes.  Recon, Robotics, Medic, and Assault.  Recon is your rogue based class.  Which is fast paced and your main duty is to be a sneaking assassin.  Robotics is my favorite class.  You run around making turrets, medical stations, and many other mechanics so that you can buff and save your team.  Basically your pet based class but better.  Though the job is very difficult and keeping your turrets alive can be one of the most challenging things around.  Medics job is pretty obvious but unlike the ideas of priests and all the other healing mechanics out there medic is actually fun.  You go around "shooting" your team mates to keep them alive while healing yourself in the process.  This is an important job and a great combination with our next class the Assault.  Assault is your equivalent to a tank.  Running around with heavy guns and blasting everything in sight.  A very important class for defending.  All classes can be made and they all share the loot and money under one name.  The only loot they don't share is the class specifics.  I actually find this kinda nice.

Agencies are your equivalent to guilds.  They lead you to be able to do AvA which is short for Agency vs Agency.  You have a Hex map which you PvP battle other Agencies for control and for the ultimate title of best Agency.

Higher up items in the game are pretty expensive and it's highly recommended you pay for a booster.  It's worth the money and it doubles everything you need.  it makes leveling alot faster and free tokens.  Basically its like pay a month to month, but on your time.

Ultimately if you love PvP and SciFi this is your game!  See you in game.
