[Roblox] Opening The Toybox Part 2: For Parents!


Check out part 3: Gallery Part 1 of Opening The Toybox was all about Roblox as a game and a company. Hearing about subscription prices, user demographics, and whatnot is great but we shouldn’t lose sight of why MMO Fallout has looked into Roblox: Parents. With the exception of Lego Universe, I have often found … Continue reading “[Roblox] Opening The Toybox Part 2: For Parents!”

Warhammer 40k MMO Officially Cancelled


If this announcement sounds familiar, I wouldn’t get your hopes up. This time the announcement is official, Warhammer: Dark Millennium Online has been cancelled. Well, somewhat. In a press release today, THQ announced that the Dark Millennium will no longer be an MMO, but will instead become a single player game.

Turbine Breaking Out The Forgotten Realms


Less than a week ago I discussed findings on the Dungeons and Dragons Online forums by sleuths far more skilled than myself, that Turbine has been buying up domains relating to Forgotten Realms and “____ of the Underdark,” as well as related to the fictional deity Lolth. Well that speculation has come to fruition, in … Continue reading “Turbine Breaking Out The Forgotten Realms”

Slideshow of the ___: A Disturbance In The Force


I’m confused about The Old Republic. On one hand, I’ve seen players complaining of over instancing on Ilum, but if Bioware was truly instance-heavy, the least they could do is balance out the population on the open world PvP planets. Granted, if Bioware had introduced the third Vulcan faction as I had suggested back in … Continue reading “Slideshow of the ___: A Disturbance In The Force”

Turbine Vs Cryptic: Turbine Introducing Forgotten Realms?


In the past, I’ve discussed the ongoing “fight” between Turbine and Cryptic Studios over how Cryptic’s upcoming Neverwinter MMO will directly compete with Turbine’s Dungeons and Dragons Online. After an undisclosed settlement with Turbine, Cryptic made it clear as day that Neverwinter is not an MMO, and never will be an MMO. That being said, … Continue reading “Turbine Vs Cryptic: Turbine Introducing Forgotten Realms?”

Games To Look Out For: CCP Edition


Even if you hate CCP, even if you have no interest in Eve Online or DUST 514, you have to admit that the very concept of an space ship MMO on the PC interacting in real time with a first person shooter on the Playstation 3 is astounding and exciting. DUST is expected to release … Continue reading “Games To Look Out For: CCP Edition”

Why Aren’t You Playing: Star Wars: The Old Republic


Too many colons in the title! During the time Bioware wasn’t busy absorbing every sub-developer of Electronic Arts, the company was busy working away at their first and arguably one of the most risky entrances into the MMO genre. The Old Republic is the labor of love of a company that has never put out … Continue reading “Why Aren’t You Playing: Star Wars: The Old Republic”
