And the Golden Joysticks Nominees Are…
August 25th, 2012 
Omali Another year, another Golden Joystick award. Every year I bring up the nominees, and since MMO Fallout is all about MMOs (and gratuitous food analogies), I tend to focus on just the one category. Last year the Best MMO category housed six titles. This year, the list has been expanded to a whopping nine. Luckily [...]

July 13th, 2012 Omali It’s sale time, so get out your wallet and replace the next month’s meals with Ramen because this year is looking fantastic.

Age of Empires Online: Servers Merging This Summer
June 1st, 2012 Omali As far as free to play goes, Age of Empires developer Gas Powered Games will not rest until their MMO is completely free. I have already discussed the Alliances update going live this month in part.

Age of Empires Online Will Be Free To Play, Not Free To Try
May 18th, 2012 Omali Age of Empires Online has had something of an identity crisis.

March 27th, 2012 Omali This is what happens when you, like me, stop paying attention to an MMO for a while. I’ll admit, Age of Empires Online has been offline for a while in my watch list, but today’s announcement that Age of Empires Online was merely worth a tweet until I noticed one important factor: When did the [...]
Get Age of Empires Online: Skirmish Mode While It Is Free
January 11th, 2012 Omali Age of Empires Online has always had one major downside: You had to do some major grinding in order to unlock all of the units in the game’s standard leveling mode. What ever happened to a fun skirmish in Age of Empires with everything available? Well the team over at Gas Powered Games has heard [...]
What Happened This Week: Love Your Thread Title Edition
August 22nd, 2011 Omali MMO Fallout wouldn’t be what it is today (and that isn’t say much as it is) without the inspiration I receive from reading forum posts, so this week’s Week In Review is dedicated to all of the completely non-biased people out there who registered at MMORPG.com to explain to me why x-company is a scam [...]
Age of Empires Online: Your Mom’s Video Blog
March 5th, 2011 Omali Ya ever had a corn sandwich? The wounds from Ensemble Studios’ closure may still be fresh, but the guys over at Gas Powered Games want you to know that they are putting their full attention into Age of Empires Online. Hopefully this studio, known for their Dungeon Siege and Supreme Commander games, will be able [...]
