The Daily Grind: The MMO you're most looking forward to

Filed under: New titles, The Daily Grind

There are so many upcoming MMOs to anticipate, we honestly can't say which one we're looking forward to most. Champions Online looks like good fun (with a good sense of humor!), DC Universe Online has us wowed with its array of super powers (that thing where you can freeze someone in a block of ice and throw them around? We're led to understand it never gets old.), Wrath of the Lich King is sure to turn our attention back to Blizzard (we may or may not have the beta client open as we type -- we'd never admit it if we did), Warhammer Online is just around the corner, Star Trek Online calls to the inner geek in all of us, and Knights of the Old Republic Online (or whatever it might be called) is a siren's song to any geeks not falling head over heels for STO. We're in such a state of giddiness over upcoming games, we can't quite determine which one we're most excited about -- and that's where you come in. Which of the many new titles out there are you most looking forward to?

The Agency, KOTORO, STO... Yeah, there's a huge amount of them out there that I'm all "oooh shiny" over, myself.

It's a good time to be an MMO fan, IMO.

I would say STO and Kotor. I think STO is going to be good being it's in Cryptic hands. Just keep it away from Sony.

I hold this comment until I see what Turbine is about to crank out.

Warhammer Online - Warhammer 40k

KOTOR and CCP's World of Darkness are the most intriguing, and they're both vague enough that I can project all my wishes and dreams onto them.

WH40K mmo, ambulation expansion(not sure if that counts), world of darkness.

AION and KotOR

Easily KOTOR. I'm 98% sure that every game I play until it's released is just filler. Once it's live, I'm divorcing my wife, quiting my job, and living off ramen and bologna till I die of a heart attack!

Star Trek Online, Star Trek Online, Star Trek Online and last (but certainly not least) Star Trek Online.

Star Trek Online all the way, though I have to admit the KOTOR MMO and Jumpgate Evolution have a lot of promise.

AtomB said on 9:36AM 7-28-2008

Startgate Worlds, really hoping it ends up being good. Champions Online sounds like it will be a very cool.

Warhammer, Kotor MMO, APB

This is not just a good year for MMOs, it's another blockbuster year for gaming. Suck it, Hollywood!

Star Trek Online and Earthrise.

Haggs said on 11:03AM 7-28-2008

The games I'm excited about are Champions Online, DC Universe Online and Stargate Worlds.

I'm looking forward these days to the MMOs that promise different type of genre settings... World of Darkness (vampires and werewolves and mummies, oh my !), The Day (alternative history science fiction !), The Secret World (h.p. lovecraft-ian horror adventure).

More traditional settings... Copernicus and KOTOR MMO, and whatever Big Huge Games is working on.

Chris_ said on 11:28AM 7-28-2008

Warhammer und surely KOTOR too.

I'm most looking forward to Darkfall Online, hopefully beta will be starting towards the end of this year.

ScytheNoire said on 12:04PM 7-28-2008

Warhammer Online, Wrath of the Lich King, Champions Online, KotOR Online, Starcraft MMO, Copernicus, World of Darkness, APB...

WTB more money and time!
