Free realms seems to be getting the best of the press from E3. Granted i haven;t been to E3 for years. If you don;t know why it went under then you probably have never been. I'm still suffering a strange sort of vertigo inspired deafness from hawking wares under the bombastic carnival of some Tony Hawk never ending skate concert thing.
Anyway, this one seems to be just where the genre is headed. "Polished as WoW" they say. "Play a wizard one day and a warrior the next" they say. "Play it on Granny's old laptop" they say. Hmm. Winner I say.
Sounds like a true virtual world game integration with content generation tools that might actually make the first true amusement park online. Check this out:
Experience a vibrant new world that’s an exciting mix of real-world and fantasy.
Be a wizard one day, and a warrior the next, without having to make a new character.
Join your friends in the game and adventure with them, wherever they are, no matter how long they have been playing.
When you’re ready for some excitement, head out to the wilderness and
battle challenging enemies like giant spiders and forest trolls in
fast-paced, strategic battlegrounds.
Cooperate with or compete against other players in battle!
Explore, quest, and collect items that you can wear, use or display.
Play a wide variety of mini-games to craft armor, weapons, potions, clothes, furniture, and many other items.
Grab a root beer at the inn and hang out with your friends while a rock band plays on the stage.
Interact with humorous, unique characters, become their friends and receive emails from them!
Raise a dog or cat and teach it to be the kind of pet you want—shy, brave, or funny.
Decorate your own house and grow a variety of plants and flowers.
Send links, share images and videos, and chat with friends from your own, personal, customizable social networking page!
