Stargate MMORPG looks likely to blow fans away
By now everyone that’s any kind of gaming type has heard World of Warcraft referred to as “Warcrack” and knows how addicting an MMORPG can be; well, there’s a new drug coming in the Fall of 2008.
Yep, Stargate. A Stargate MMORPG. Let that roll around your tongue for a minute…savor it. Ok, you can swallow now. Really. That’s just getting disturbing.
According to the “About” site at Stargateworlds.com, the game is going to be using the Unreal 3 engine, if I read it right. Having never played Unreal Tournament, I can only guess that’s what they’re referring to. I can’t believe I’m actually more stoked about this than I was for Star Wars Galaxies (poodoo!) The ad on the new Stargate: The Ark of Truth DVD looked really good, but there’s no solid indication that it was representative of the actual game; it might have just been some animation to advertise. If it WAS representative, then oh YEAH this is going to be fun!
