If Lego Universe has a legacy to leave behind, it is a page in history soaked with the sorrow of children and parents who simply want to give them a game that they can have fun with and perhaps learn something from. Since I wrote the bit on Lego Universe and children with autism, the … Continue reading “Let's Talk: MMOs For Your Kids”

It’s spring cleaning time again here at MMO Fallout, and I still have over 130 never-been-published drafts to go through. Jagex Doesn’t Understand Economics. (2010) The economy of Runescape is delicate like a flower. No, a better analogy would be a kitten perched on a clothesline above a pot of boiling water that happens to … Continue reading “Into The MMO Fallout Archives #2”
If you had asked me one year ago if RuneScape should have a members trial, I might have said no. Not that such a program wouldn’t be beneficial, but that the rampant amount of cheaters that plagued the game at the time would use the opportunity for free membership, no matter how short, to bot … Continue reading “RuneScape: Members Trial Much More Likely”
Runescape: Betrayal at Falador is the first novel by T.S Church set in the world of Gielinor, envisioned by Jagex, more specifically the city of Falador and the White approximate king place approximately five years before the events of the game (the quest storyline), we find the world entering into chaos. As the White Knights … Continue reading “Review: Runescape: Betrayal at Falador”

For how much the market is saturated, each game holds a special place in at least one person’s heart, and no matter how unmarketable the title was there will always be a group to mourn its loss. It almost goes without saying that when a kid’s MMO is … Continue reading “Lego Universe And Autism, Or, A Shattered Heart”

If you live in the US and were eagerly awaiting the North American release of Mythos (and let’s face it, how many among us can honestly say we weren’t holding off only Old Republic preorders), you will be disappointed to hear that those prospects for a release and long life span have dropped rather significantly. … Continue reading “Mythos Shutting Down In Europe”
For the record I tried to hold off on the “are you thinking what I’m thinking?” I make no promises. In an interview with Gamespot, Sony Online Entertainment’s President John Smedley sat down to talk about Everquest, DC Universe, and more. Most important, Smedley mentioned that Sony has no intent on shuttering Everquest at any … Continue reading “John Smedley on Everquest, Free To Play, Vita, and More”
здравствуйте! I’ve been spending the past few days not on homework or work-work, on figuring out exactly how I want to inject videos into MMO Fallout, as I’ve promised many times in the past. My first video, that I’ll hopefully release in the next week or so, is a quick look at the Sony Authenticator. Since … Continue reading “Week In Review: Tardiness Is Not Tolerated Edition”
