Top 5 Kick Ass Classes in MMOs


FEATURE

By now, the MMO genre is becoming quite the aged beast in terms of gaming history. Starting out in the confines of text based MUDs, and trading its MMORPG name for a smaller, sleeker abbreviation. Still, for the most part MMOs stick to the 'holy trinity' established back in their murky, MUDdy beginnings. There will always be a warrior guy who takes a beating, there will always be a healing guy, usually religious, who does the healing, and there will always be the sneaky guy (or the magical guy) who does all the damage. While the fourth 'crowd controller guy' is becoming more and more common in games, most MMOs don't go far out from these traditional roles. I thought I'd give a little write up on some of the classes that, for me at least, stand out from the pack of trinity huggers in terms of concept, game play, or both.

Fly For Fun Nostalgic Review: Flying Fun!


REVIEW

Yet another nostalgic review. Fly For Fun (better known as Flyff) is one of the most famous old school MMOs around. Although the game is old, the servers are still populated. Either it's just the fanbase working or the game really is that damn good (I'd probably go with the latter one). Flyff is a very memorable game for me.
