In other words it isn't in a medieval fantasy fought against mythological beasts, based on hollow grinding, and level based items. These days in the space that is damn near revolutionary. That almost assures this games success. |
There is an MMO shooter called 'The Agency' (PS3 & PC) set for release in 08' that has also taken a different approach to the MMO scene. It focuses on the world of espionage.
I agree that these games stand out from the MMO crowd (which is currently overflowing with fantasy themed games). However, I'm not sure if difference alone is a guarantee for success. We are still not sure how well they will be recieved. Sales for these games will definetly be interesting. I think the potential strength of the MMO genre on consoles will be measured by these releases.
