Wulfram 2


FEATURE Wulfram is a fast paced 1st person(tank) shooter with stratergy, base making/destroying and over head star ships. You battle it out on loads of diff maps(worlds) against ur opposing team. I have seen maps last for days and as short as 5 minutes The community is quite helpfull and friendly.

There is different severs for different levels of your expetise. You start of in thew TRAINING server then move into the OPEN server, then into the REGULAR server. There are trainers in the TRAINING server to help u get adjusted to the game, ask them any thing u want about the game and they should b able to help u!

I have found it to be absolutely addictive! A little hard at the start to get all the controls down pact, but once u know the buttons im certain u'll nvr leave!!

AdventureQuest


REVIEW Most of the reviews talk about older versions of AQ. I've played the newer version, and here's my review of it. I think it's an excellent game, because of the simplicity, and the short battles are a plus. You don't get into it, and can play anytime. The graphics are very nice, when compared to other free MMORPGs *coughrunescape*.

The characters look very nice, as do most of the monsters. I don't play with the sound on, because it seems to slow down the game, my computer isn't very good. There are a few small problems with balance, but they are being fixed as the staff goes. It is a funny game as well, I especially like the Frogzard Hunter. It is constantly updated, which is a big plus. There are many classes, which all specialize in different thing, such as the Dragon Slayer gets attacks that work well against dragons, and the Rogue specializes in ranged fighting. Overall, it is a game that is good already, and gets better as it goes. I'd play this over games such as RuneScape and Tibia ANYDAY.

Kal Online – The Good – The Bad – The Ug


FEATURE Kal Online







Kal Online :

The Good - The Bad - The Ugly







Well this game is not bad. Not bad at all.



So lets get down to business. Here are the real facts about kal the real deal and the real story about what you want to know.




The Good!!!

=========================================

-This game is everything you would expect from an online 3D MMORPG.

-The skill's sets are great for each class of character.

-The interface is really well done and special effects kick ASS.

-You can F*%&en use some F%@#en swear words in it cus there are no filters

-The quest are quite fun and you never get bored

-The land is HUGE it can and will take you a couple hours if not day's to go from one end of the land to the other.

-Clothing rocks

-You can transform into a great but creature that's totally wicked!




The Bad

=========================================

-The game is HUGE about 165 MB download for the install file and about an other 75MB of updates after that.

-You need a pretty decent computer to run it. Something like a 900 MHz and up with 512 MB ram, 64MB video card and definitely a high-speed connection.

-You well need a total of 400 MB of hard drive space for now.

-There are far too many people on the same server, I know the game is fairly new but they would definitely benefit from having a second server.

-They do updates ever wensday from 9 PM EST to 10:30 PM EST during what time the server is down.




The Ugly

========================================

-This is the only really ugly thing I find about this game. Im French and my English spelling is not the best I know!!! BUT the English spelling on the website is much much worse then mine.



So on a final note

========================================

Kal is a relay good game for anyone who likes anime and eastern mythology. For a Korean made game this game really gave a good impression. If your interested in a free 3D oriental based story line with excellent game play and graphics this game is for you.



I give it a 5 out of 5 G’s.

Conquer Online


FEATURE Conquer Online (CO) is a MMORPG that is free to play. It is published by TQ digital and is lots of fun to play.



Setting:

CO is set in a era similar to ancient China, where you have many mighty warriors and monsters are commonplace. There are magic elements, based off of the Taoist religion, and much of Chinese mythology is incorporated into the world. There isn't much history to the world, and it is not very condusive to Roleplay. 7/10



Graphics:

CO uses 2d backgrouns with 3d characters and an angled top-down view. The backgrounds are very beautiful and crisp, and the character models are pretty good. There could be better, but they are pretty good for a free game. Think Sims 1. Special effects for abilities, etc. are pretty good too, although when there gets to be many effects on screen, things get laggy and you could be disconnected. Great graphics for a free game. 8.5/10



Gameplay:

The gameplay in CO is pretty straightforward. Level your character up and try to get better equipment. Occasionally you can participate in quests, and although most of the standard ones aren't worth it, the holiday quests can be inteesting. Also CO is PK-free. No that doesn't mean free of PvP, it means that there is almost no punishment for PKing and you can enter PvP at ANY time. At low levels, you may find that people just kill you for fun. Leveling get really slow at high levels and the differences between levels are great. A person 10 lvls above you (generally) would destroy you in PvP. Max level is 120(?) and you can get Reborn once to start again from lvl 15 as a different class. There are four classes in total: Archer, Taoist, Trojan, and Warrior. Archers are long range specialists. Trojans are basially fighter, and have the highest physical attack. Taoists are basically mages, and can specialize later to be more offensive of defensive. Warriors are kind of underpowered, and most consideer them to be Trojans that aren't as good. I think their best stat is defense. 7/10



Community:

Well, most people are idiots on the servers. There are some good people, but most of the time, unless you are high level, no one will say anything. Once you become high level, you can enter their 'clique' and get to know some people a litle more. 5/10



Overall, CO is one of the best free MMORPGs and I love it. Play it for a while and see if it is your thing. My advice, start playing along with a few of your friends.

www.kingsonline.be – Free medieval MMORPG


FEATURE In KO you start out as a petty landowner who must work his way up to maybe one day become King of one of the 14 castles! But the road is long and to get there you must fill your treasury by collecting taxes, organizing fairs, raid villages, attack other players or go on a holy crusade together with some of your friends!


But money is not enough to become King of the land, you will need soldiers to become strong enough to defend your own land and attack the enemy. Send out preachers to convert people to your side or simply go on a slave hunt and capture them that way. If your need for a workforce is larger than ever then you could go on an African expedition together with several other expanding players.



War isn’t the only thing that keeps the world going. Play a game of dice to enhance your riches and if your ambitions are truly great than participate in jousting tournaments with your very own Knight who you can equip with various items you can find on a crusade! If you are clever enough than you can make loads of money by buying goods in one province and selling it at a large price in another but beware of Kings (other players) who are overzealous when it comes to taxing!



So you’ve gathered a fortune, bought a mansion, won several tournaments, expanded your empire with a flourishing population. Then now is the time to claim the throne of one the castles for your own! Deploy catapults, trebuchets, rams, siege towers to improve your chances of winning the day but remember that the enemy king will have likely put down some serious defences such as killing pits, archers, iron gates, boiling oil , …



But the most important aspect is to have fun, kings online is completely free and will stay that way. Ideas are also very welcome as the game is open to expansions.

R.O.S.E


FEATURE Tried ROSE for a few days, won't be back. The game has great potential but more time on game interface and less on graphics would have been a major advancement.



The characters' equipment is kind of cool in a younge teenage way. You can make your character 'pretty pimp' with some effort. The monsters and all around feel made me think of renaming the game to "Candyland", very immature. As an adult I felt over ran with 'kiddies'. I have a horrible graphics card but I was able to play and was happy with the graphics for items, equipment etc...visually the game is easy to read.



Lots of items, weapons, armor...you get the idea...



I must stress I personally hated the camera view, you must constantly adjust when you move. I think I spent more time adjusting to see what was in front of me then having fun.



I also hated that Gm's seemed to be non-exsistant. Offensive names were easy to find as well as language.



The servers are consistantly 'extended' and lag was a major factor in busy areas.



The game interface was far more complicated then it needed to be. As for a game manual....Even if some explanations were vague because of translation...it was still a joke.




Bottomline: To say this game is only in testing stage is an understatment. This game brings a new meaning to 'user UNfriendly' and with the immature feel and the average gamer age of 14...it's hellish for those over age 18. At 29, it was pure terror.

Ferion- a space strategy game


FEATURE Imagine a space game where you can compete with players from around the world, and conquer the hell out of them. Now you, like many others, are thinking of Ferion.



Ferion is a space strategy sim that has been running (and addicting its players) since 1999. You control your own galactic empire. Your main objective is to capture planets, build ships, settle new worlds, wage war on other empires and generally fulfill your need for conquest and power; with the hope of eventually becoming #1!



The main difference between Ferion and other space MMORPG’s is that Ferion games are played over around 2 months at a time in enclosed arenas, where each player must build their empire from scratch. Even the biggest vets must still start from the same point as the noobs each time, although player’s scores from past arenas are kept so you can tell a skilled player from a noob by their score and medals that they have collected for winning arenas.



Because of this Ferion is very accessible for new player with special section of the game only for noobs... and of course veteran sections for when you’re ready. And the best part is that you can play as long as you want for free!

GuildWars


FEATURE I have played the most recent beta-testing of guildwars.. it was a closed beta test, only open to those who preordered the game.



Beta March 18-21.



This game has had alot of hype to it.. and it was all true. I played this game almost nonstop for the 3 days the beta was online.. it was unbelievable. Lets get down to the ratings.


Graphics - 10/10

The game was simply amazing.. its a Free to Play game like Diablo, etc.. you must purchase the game, but its free to play past that.
This game has graphics that rival its counterparts like WoW, EQ2, City of Heros, etc.
For a pay to play game this is all we can ask for, but this is a free to play game.



Gameplay - 10/10

The entire game is based upon wise team construction, character development, and pure strategy.
The max lvl is 20, but its all in how you setup your skills that determines who wins a pvp fight.
There are missions for PvE and then PvP battles.
The missions are great, the monsters are really hard and have great AI.. it takes the best teamwork and the right team to beat these missions.

The PvP is the best of any online game I have ever played (and I've played alot of them)
In most games, the higher lvl would win the fight.. but in guildwars its who has the best strategy with setting up their skills, working together as a team, etc.
The game definately deserves the highest rating in Gameplay.



Interface - 9/10

The interface can sometimes get in the way, and when you minimize things and move things.. they go back to their original ways the next login.. but besides that.. the games interface is simply amazing.



Killstealing/Looters/etc - 10/10

These are words you wont hear in GW.
The game is designed that when you exit a town into a hunting ground or mission, you will have your own version of that battle area and own copy of the world.
You may bring in party members and guildmates with you, but besides that.. you will run into no one else while hunting.. great experience.



Easy to Learn? - 10/10

I had no experience in the game prior to playing it this past beta... but I got on the game and knew exactly what to do.
The game is setup so well that after a little while of playing it, you learn the concepts pretty easy.

On my first character I had alot of trouble once I got past the tutorial area.. but after an hour or so of wandering around and asking people for help.. I learned the game just fine.



People/Community - 10/10

The community in this game is just amazing.
The people are nice, and they are always willing to help you and help you learn the game.
It really was a joy playing with people like that.



Overall - 9/10

The game is simply amazing, and its free to play.
You couldnt ask for any more.


Please leave a reply with any constructive criticism/compliments about my review or the game.

REVIEW Where should I begin? How about the different skills!



Wood-Cutting- As your woodcutting level increases you will cut wood quicker and have access to better hatchets allowing you to also get wood quicker.



Construction- Constructing will allow you to build your own shop, house or boats.
You will need wood and a hammer to build.



Fishing- Fishing will allow you to fish fish which you can eat when it has been cooked.

You will be starting fishing at Lisim with a net.



Cooking- Self Explanitory...



Mining- Currently in the game the only place where you can mine is at Rynir Mines and you are only able to get copper, tin and iron ore. Once you level your mining you will have access to more ores, faster mining speeds and better pickaxes (also increase mining speed).



Smithing- Interlinked with mining, make items out of bars!



Theiving- You can theive other people! Watch out who you theive though, they might get angry...



Fighting- The normal: attack, defense, and strength + HP



It's only been going on for about a week, now trust me you can't just play this game and get mad that your not progressing...You have to give it at least 3-4 day's worth of playing, then you begin to see it's true beauty!



I'd reccomend this game to anyone that liked Runescape Classic!



Thanks,

Tape

DoOnline


FEATURE This is my first review so bare with me... this one is complicated because it really is not your standard MMORPG...



Concept - 7/10: The concept is awsome, Playing in ancient china with shaolin monk style fighters is an intersting change to all the full frontal tanker style fighters you see in most games nowadays which in my opinion is very westernized... however you can still see some elements of games which have already been about Xiah style assassins and swordsman...(the monk idea is nice although he's stupidly fat)



Graphics - 5/10: Half of me says yes these are good graphics for a game like this (free MMORPG)...when you stand and look at your surroundings you can really see that alot of thought has gone into the making of the environments. From close up your character looks very nicely done and realistic altough when you zoom out it seems to go kinda blotchy looking. Now the other half of me thinks something is not right when I look into things with more depth... when your character runs he looks like hes late for something. When he then comes face to face with the animals, which are actually real life friendly little critters from your back yard you come to realize they're all infected with the mad cow disease... you even attack stiffed up, I won't even go on about how the animals react!



Community - 3/10: What? Who? Why? When? Where?... The 3 is for the site itself wich is very helpful and hintful and for once even stated what the stat modifiers are and what use each avatar has...

i. Warrior : Long sword, Axe, Spear.

ii. Assassin : Bow, Claw, dagger.

iii. Mage : Sword, Fighting fan, Gauntlet.

iv. Monk : Staff, Maul, Flying Wheel.

1) Strength: Determines physical attack strength.

2) Dexterity: Determines hit rate and speed.

3) Constitution: Determines defense and life force.

4) Agility: Determines movement, attack speed, and critical hits.

5) Intelligence: Determines mana force..




Sound - 7/10: Nothing special...special effects and combat noises were kinda lame.

Lag - 9/10: Basically none at all (from my personal gaming experience.)



Gameplay & Evaluation - 6/10: I know i've been kind of harsh here but there really is one more thing to add... the interface has to be the most un-user friendly piece of work i've ever encountered...seriously it took me ages to get the hang of the basics, so much stuff i dont even know what is all about now and i got to lvl 19 before quitting completely! For experienced RPGers this is a good one to try for a little change but i cant see any one who has gotten very involved with Xiah or KalOnline getting addicted to this... for people who have just come from the likes of Runescape this is the one for you.

Monster and Me 3.0


FEATURE MAM 3.0 is a good pokemon ripoff, with a nice battle system.



Graphics: 3d claymation models mesh perfectly with the anime backrounds.
9.5/10


Gameplay: A nice turnbase system of battle really gives the game a unique feel. You can also have pets and start out with a turtle.
8.75/10
,br>
Sound: Music is nice, and there are nice quality sound clips.


Overall: A fun game but i wouldn't pay for it.
