Star Wars: The Old Republic

A proven formula in today's MMO's goes into the Star Wars Universe, with a dash of Bioware storytelling.

Anyone who read my review of Rift last year know that that particular MMO took what worked best in today's MMO's and refined it by giving it its own touch. EA & Bioware have done the same with SW:TOR, adding Bioware's c... Read Full Review

SpellForce 2: Shadow Wars

A very decent sequel to one of the most underappreciated RTS/RPG blend from Europe.

Spellforce 2: Shadow Wars is a very decent sequel to the first one, The Order of Dawn, and its accompanying expansions. The gameplay and interface has been improved some, there are plenty of puzzles and quests to figure... Read Full Review

Half-Life 2: Episode One

The gamelength is only a few hours at most, but like the original, it's very immense.

Short on gamelength, but big on immense battles and content. That is pretty much the theme behind Half Life 2: Episode One, the first of three standalone expansion content to expand the Half Life 2 story. It picks up w... Read Full Review

Rift (2011)

Take the best of existing MMO worlds, and put it into one fantastic new world.

Guild Wars Factions

New features, new lands to explore, new skills to play with, and more butt-whipping action against others or the AI.

One year ago, the first chapter of Guild Wars, the Flameseeker Prophecies, brought an immense world of Player v. Environment, and intense, fast-paced PvPaction to all parts of the world. Every day, players and guilds fr... Read Full Review

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

The move from WW2 to Modern might've been odd, but it makes for a great campaign & multiplayer.

Mass Effect 2: Lair of the Shadow Broker

Almost like Pinnacle Station of ME1, only better. Great to see how the story of the ME:Redemption comic gets resolved.

Anyone who has read the Mass Effect: Redemption comic book series knows of the steps and encounters Liara made to help Miranda Lawson & Cerberus retrieve Shepard's body from the hands of The Shadow Broker, and The Collec... Read Full Review

Call of Duty: World at War

Treyarch takes the success of Modern Warfare into WWII and doesn't fix what is not broke.

"If it's not broke, don't fix it." That's pretty much the saying here with Call of Duty: World at War, the 5th installment of the Activision franchise where it's about tantalizing campaign storyline, and fast-paced acti... Read Full Review

Mass Effect 2: Overlord

Relative short add-on with plenty of intrigue, as long as you have the Hammerhead add-on too.

If you thought the Hammerhead add-on was quite dull, this new Overlord add-on adds some intriguing DLC stuff to this epic Sci-Fi RPG, and a bit of a challenge as well. Basically, once you have the Hammerhead, you can go... Read Full Review

Guild Wars: Eye of the North

Huge, intense battles in a marevlous campaign story & huge dungeons make it worthy of a true expansion for Guild War

It has been over 2 1/2 years since Guild Wars first went live with the original Flameseeker Prophecies campaign, 1 1/2 years since the first standalone expansion, Factions, came out, and nearly a year since its previous ... Read Full Review

RF Online

So underappreciated, some people may find themselves coming back after their initial quit.

Most MMO's take time to mature while the developers and publishers work to iron out the wrinkles or bring in some changes and additions to suit the player community's needs. This appears to be the case with this import ... Read Full Review

Mass Effect 2: Kasumi - Stolen Memory

Short add-on with an interesting new character, a decent loyalty mission, & a nice new SMG.

Ever wonder why there was space on the far right side of the character selection screen, and the port observatory of the Normandy SR2 wasn't being...occupied? The answer is the Kasumi DLC. The latest add-on to ME2 adds... Read Full Review

Excellent storyline, strong gameplay, and a wonderful combination of visuals & audio makes this sequel a classic.

Jade Empire: Hisui no Teikoku

Original, and an Early Console RPG of the Year Frontrunner

Granted, this is not another installment that Bioware has created from the Star Wars Universe or the Realms of Dungeons and Dragons, but the originality of the world of Jade Empire and its story, combined with excellent ... Read Full Review

Sword of the New World: Granado Espada

A typical grinder MMO with the Asian flavor & a unique system for creating characters.

While I was "resting and relaxing" after spending a good weekend in Guild Wars for the 2nd annual Dragon Festival Event, I came upon this game known as Sword of the New World: Granado Espada. It's your typical... Read Full Review

Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends

Very similar to Rise of Nations in presentation and graphics, but great in its own way.

Anyone familiar with Rise of Nations will find this more fantasy-like spinoff in RoN: Rise of Legends very familiar in gameplay, but will find the story to be very good; something that Microsoft Game Studios have taken u... Read Full Review

DarkStar One

A surprisingly solid presentation of a space sim despite the few bugs and technical problems.

Stong F2P European import MMO with some aspects of WoW, and a good mix of flexibility and challenges.

CrimeCraft

A cross between Guild Wars & Saints Row. This MMO-FPS blend has potential, but with plenty of flaws right now.

Anyone who ran into this game thought the cross between FPS'ing and MMO would work, especially those who are familiar with Saints Row & other related FPS games. While Crime Craft is no CounterStrike or any other Half-Li... Read Full Review

Mass Effect 3

Its shortcomings are overlapped by the game's epic conclusion to an epic trilogy.

Baldur's Gate, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (and its MMO "sequel", The Old Republic), & Gears of War. Why I do mention these three great game franchises? I mention them because these franchises represent som... Read Full Review
