Fallen Earth

Post by Wingman »

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallen_Earth
It's a post-apoc game set in/near the Grand Canyon, and integrates FPS elements into the MMO scene.

So, I'd never heard of this game until yesterday, when a random picture on DeviantArt mentioned it, but apparently it was released on the 22nd.

I've browsed through a few videos for it, and it seems like it has the potential to be a rather good game. Has anyone else heard of it, or is planning to get it?

I was a beta tester. Well, in name only. I signed in like, once and never did again because I'm terrible at s*** like that it seems. Character creation was fairly neat, though I never got much further than that - the one time I signed it I must've signed in before maintenance because the servers went down. D'oh.

So I've heard of it. Not sure if I would (personally) get it, as there are a number of other MMOs that have also caught my interest, and those sorts of games are not really something you can play regularly and then play another one (or more) as well (to say nothing of the cost, heh!)

It looks good, but the system requirements are much too high for my PC.

I wish there would be a MMORPG on XBox Live. :(

It's giving me some Hellgate: London vibes, which isn't exactly a bad thing. I just hope it doesn't go belly uplike Flagship Studios did.

Coming for PC and XBOX. However, the release date is unknown, and is generally estimated at 2012.

I'm not sure if this counts, but there's Borderlands for PS3, XBOX, and PC.

There's also a World of Darkness MMO in the works, this is a guess but I'm going to assume a 2011 or 2012 release date for it.

And then there's [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APB_%28video_game%29]All Points Bulletin[url] for PC and XBOX.
