i find it kind of redundant to review mmos because there are many different styles that cater to many different crowds. yet here i am. so how does this differentiate itself from the other milliion billion mmos that have flooded the market in the past few years? let me lay it out quick and simple. this game has been out in korea for a while now and it has had huge success over there so codemasters decided to bring it to the rest of the world. what you get is a a challenging game that requires many hours of attention to get anywhere at all. what does this mean? lots of grinding. Now, people seem to misunderstand grinding in mmos. if you are the type of person that enjoys quick rewards look elsewhere, (try world of warcraft) if you are the type of person that likes a challenge and likes grinding against seemingly insurmountable odds...welcome. so how does this game reward your efforts? with the best pvp in any mmo period. rf pulls this off by giving you a choice between 3 different races (all drastically different) and pitting everyone against each other in massive battles for money. iim not going to go into detail about all the character classes and such as if your interested in this game you can just read about them. the last thing i would like to say is the game has a great soundtrack and a hit or miss graphics system. the character models all look very detailed and excellent (the equipment is insane), however some of the environments look extremely dated.

basically, if you enjoy a challenge and dont mind the grind...this game has ALOT to offer. also if your in the market for a pvp mmo this is hands down the best in that department (ive played nearly every mmo out there). if you dont fall into either of those catagories, then your probably not going to understand what all the fuss is about.
