OK CoS has a release date of 3q and Warhammer 4q, but it's not really looking good for ANY games in beta for 2008, whats up with that !!!!........ Maybe all of them were thinking of releasing crap like AoC and now re-thinking.

Something is telling me that were not getting anything this year. Lets face the facts, I like most of you will play the first well made game that comes along, but I guess not this year.

As it stands I'm playing EQ2 ( free for june and july) but I really don't like it much, so It's back to D&D Online, WoW or trying Vanguard.

What is everyone else doing ?

The pen is mightier than the sword if the sword is very short, and the pen is very sharp.

Fable 2, Fallout 3, Starcraft II, Diablo 3. For me these coming years are going to be about the 2s and 3s I guess :) I won't get back into playing MMOs until something unique comes out. Star Trek Online if Cryptic does it right.

Last I heard Star Trek Online was canceled a few months ago.

As far as Spellborn, it died like 2 years ago. The devs just haven't realized it yet. WoW continues to dominate, and while I think WAR stands the best chance out of any we've seen so far, I think they too will fail to make any significant impact on the MMO market. All that's left is to wait for WoW's second expansion (or play EVE, if you're into that) and continue waiting.

"Beer for the beer god!"

I also think that the upcoming MMO's are going to fail in some way or another. I'm hoping WAR won't, but I have this gut-feeling. Although, I started playing Atlantica 3 days ago, and I'm surprised how much I'm enjoying it so far.

 

Anyway, SC2 and D3 are indeed the games I'm looking forward to the most. I guess 2008/2009 will be the year(s) of SP games :).

Rumor is that Cryptic picked up Star Trek Online after Perpetual went under. Cryptic is making some kind of big announcement in 9 days - the teaser image on their site looks like it's quite possibly STO. http://crypticstudios.com/

It's not dead at all. In fact they just added a bunch of fileplanet beta testers.  For some reason, they have a better website in Korea, here http://www.spellborn.co.kr/main/main.php

I just wish they would update their US website, so it wouldn't look so lame.   The game looks very promising to me.

Fallen Earth looks like it has potential.  Quite different than the rest too.

 Fallen Earth does look like alot of fun. Been watching that one for a loooooong time.

 I'm currently playing VG and having alot of fun with it. I just quit AoC and WoW...one I'm disappointed with and the other I'm bored with.

 May reactivate account for LoTRO in anticipation for the Mines of Moria. The PvP isn't my style but it's there. PvE is excellent in my opinion.

 I had hopes for CoS being good but not sure. Will wait to see what reasonable people say about it.

Well looks like you are way off OP.  You can bet your life on WAR releasing at the end of September.  Unless you've been in a cave recently you would kno
