Anyone looking at playing Startrek.com's Online game when they get it up and running next year? I "simmed" back in the early days of dial-up AOL internet. This seems to take it to a whole new level though.

See the Site,

The inclusion of only three races in the beginning bothers me, and I have never played a 3d First person Sim before. If the price structure is good, and I have a real job, I will probably try it.

Well i first have to look how the gameplay is of this game, and if it's addictive. I personally would gladly be a Klingon captain on a Neq'Var Battle Cruiser. First have to see if it's really something.

if nobody here has ever played an online game before and fancy a try a years free subscription to everquest 2 at trouble is you cant go beyond the 6th level or leave the first island, im on the runnyeye EU server and im playing a Dwarf called Rred. give it a try because its free, you need a gamespy account tho

Does anyone know any Massive Multiple games, that are worth to buy and play? I am not talking about RPG style games, but more about adventure/RTS/TBS/etc...

Anyway i just played Knights of the Old Republic II, and it's really a fantastic game. I will recommend it to just download a demo and try, perhaps it's something for you. I haven't played Old Republic 1, but i think i will have a go, when i am finished with number 2. Oh.. something else it's a starwars game.

SW game or not, Knights (at least the first one) is a great game, but I cant play KotOR 2, my computer isnt good enough. How is the sequel iwulff?

knights of the old republic 2 totaly rocked, i played it constantly for 2 weeks, Vampire the masquerade bloodlines runs on the same engine as does resident evil 4. MMOLRPG's Ragnarock, Everquest 1&2, Ultima online, Dark ages of Camelot.. Real roleplaying doesnt realy exist anymore ... shame realy ... Matrix online kicks off shortly if it hasn't already

I have never played in a "live" role playing event. But I managed to watch one some years ago. It was more entertaining than reality television. It was some type of mystic western were half of your decisions were dice based and the other half based on the way you played a poker hand.

The narrator and players were clearly enjoying themselves and I never heard any of the strangeness that RPG are accused of. As soon as I graduate (both college and to a better computer) I may try the Matrix online game... Damn, need a real job to pay for my gaming habits.

Well, I used to be a big fan of the Final Fantasy titles (not so much anymore, maybe the soon to be released FFXII can change me back). But I can see why many people, espically those who have played alot of PC RPG's would not be fans of FF. Like Hedgehog said, they are like playing through a book. But the things that made most of the FF's good (2, 5, 7, 9, and kinda 10) was the fact that you are playing through a great story. Even if it is pretty linear, the story made up for that. And later in the series (7 and on), the series was producing some of the best in-game, and CG cut-scene graphics for their time. I'd reecomend any of those that I listed above to someone who has never played one. And Iwulff, yes you do alot of 'bashing' the same button in the game, but some of the fights involved a good ammount of stragegy in order to get through them in one piece.

Ok, before I rant too much ( ) STHedgehog, I wanted to ask what you liked best about the game. The reason I havent tried it was because I heard using the 'markos' ( if thats what they are called) could be a bitch, and the monthly fee was $20-30, which was more than I wanted to pay.

i heard some guy's are making a half life 2 mod called stargate broken oath, im totaly suprised also about the lack of stargate games, babylon 5 was the same, they eventualy started making a bab5 game but never extended it past a demo. ok in KOTOR you played reven didnt you? well in KOTOR2 you dont but its based some years after the first and reven has vanished beyond the galactic rim looking for the true sith empire, her ship the Ebon Hawk is at the disposal of the "New" Hero/Heroin you pick up allies along the way such as an r2d2 type droid, a psychotic asassin droid, a haan solo rip off pilot, your teacher in the force "an old lady", the mandalore of the mandalorians, a technition with a cybernetic arm and tiny floating sidekick, a floating black ball of a droid of the same type that vader used to torture leah with, and if you play a male theres 3 love interests ... all women luckily enough .. a sassy bounty huntress, an ice maiden jedi guardian, and a blind empathic sith master. in every situation you can pick up to 3 of your allies to go with you into any situation, each ally has its own abilities and skills, the graphics engine did tend to make my machine laggy if i ran the game while downloading a few dozen things on my bitorrent
