MMOrning Shots: Menu Redux


10866E3_2013_FFXIVARR_PUB_29

Today’s MMOrning Shots is a callback to a classic, which is what we writers use as code word for using old content to mask a lack of new content to show. Remember back when Final Fantasy XIV was under reconstruction and how one of the big reveals was that Square Enix had tested their new user interface to hit a goal of “tolerable?”

MMOrning Shots remembers every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

MMOrning Shots: Dino Day


clip_image004

Today’s MMOrning Shot comes to us from The World II, showing off just about the coolest boss I have seen in an MMO. I present you with Mecha-Rex.

Mecha-Rex seems like your typical Tyrannosaurus-Rex that you probably have seen in other games. We however upped the ante by including a large sharp spiked tail on Mecha-Rex and a large photon gun in his mouth! He’s already ready for action and sure to make his enemies extinct.

The World II reminds me a bit of an MMO version of Monster Hunter, a game that ditches mini-monsters in favor of 80 giant creatures. You’ll be able to choose from 30 heroes at launch. Check out more at the group’s IndieDB page.

And blast your way through MMOrning Shots every Mecha-Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
