League of Cowards and Back-Stabbers

~Is what this game should properly be named. League of Legends is based off of the Warcraft DoTA (Defence of The Ancients) maps, where you only control a hero instead of a whole army. The other units which known as minions in the game, are run by a less than intelligent A.I.

The game itself is great, but the people who play it...not so much.
Casters and Range units make a habit of running scared whenever you try to attack them, then the moment you turn around they stun, freeze, slow, you and effortlessly pick you off. To counter this many melee units have a dash or "Jump" ability to zero in on the Ranged based characters, however these skills usually warp you in front of a turret that can do as much as several hundred points of damage to you in one hit, and guess who's there to make sure you cant get away from it? The casters and rangers, who after your killed by the turret gain a level and gold for free and proceed to do the same thing against the next player.

This game is quite broke, and full of cowards who exploit every little slip or slide to get the advantage over you. It's gotten so bad I myself can hardly stand to play the game any more. I recommend finding a game with a much better PvP because this is a waste of time.
This game gets a 2 out of 10 (1 out of 5)

Enter A New Era of Odyssey Games



N.E.O Online, New Era Odyssey Online being the full translation, is quite possibly one of the more unique games I've ever seen. This game is one of the very few MMOrpgs on the net that allow a player COMPLETE customization of their character, to the point that there aren't even any set classes or jobs.

With the ability to use any weapon, learn any attack, or cast any spell, NEO Online lets you play the way you want to play, even if that means killing your enemy with a fire ball when you could of just as easily used the large AK-47 like gun strapped to your back.

There are mounts, pets, the whole nine yards, as well as the unique ability to learn how to transform into monsters and hide among them. The monsters you transform into will no longer be hostile toward you, so long as you stay transformed which is not only cool but convenient if you ever have a quest that requires you to kill a boss.

Sadly this game does have draw backs. For the lower levels making money can be a bit difficult, and although there are a wide variety of each weapon available for the use of the player, there are only 5 types of weapons present in the game(being 2h Mace, 1h sword, shield, staff, and a gun).

I grant this game a well earned 8.5 out of 10 (3 out of 5) keep up the good work you guys! : )

Come Ye Who Dare Call Themselves Immortal!


I bet looking at that title you'd never guess I was about to talk about World of Warcraft. More specifically I've been taking a look at all of the "private servers" out there. Each one is great, and they all have fun and unique things about them, some to the point that it's not WoW at all but a game all its own.

There's one in particular though, that I found to be one I could sit down and enjoy for endless hours if need be, and that's the one I wanna talk to you guys about. It's called World of Immortality.

The game is split into two servers. There's the original WoI server and the more recently added FUN server. The fun server is basically a server that has been "tweaked" a bit. All exp gains have been greatly increased, on top of that, the rate of rare drops has been increased as well. Which I personally find VERY enjoyable. The original server is "Blizzlike" meaning little to no changes have been made to the game play, the only noticeable change is the addition of the Teleport Goblin NPC accessible to those who vote for World of Immortality on their website. As a juice bonus, the Amazing GMs at World of Immortality will fix you up with a free level 80 just for joining. Completely decked out with some of the most powerful gear in the game.

Speaking of the GMs, great bunch of guys and gals they are, always active, and always ready to help in any way they can. Truly dedicated to the players of the game like real GMs should be.

This is an amazing experience for anyone looking to play World of Warcraft but not wanting to pay $15 a month or whatever the cost is.
This game, or better put this server, gets a 9.5 out of 10 (4.5 out of 5) of course being a private server there are a few bugs (which are actually actively being worked on) so it doesn't quite get a 10, but make no mistake, I'll recommend it to anyone any day.

The BEST and WORST fighting game


Rumble Fighter is by no means an MMOrpg, but it is an MMO Fighting game, one that everyone needs to know about. Rumble Fighter is hosted by OGPlanet and is by far the BEST online fighting game you will EVER come across, involving every single style of fighting ever created and mastered by man (and one by cats :3) as well as several special abilities known as EXO cores which can transform your character temporarily into powerful super weapons ranging from an armored mech fighter, to a werewolf, and even undead.


Unfortunately the best fighting game ever is home to quite possibly the Worst community of gamers I've EVER seen in all my history of playing online games. Were talking not only cheats and hacks, but a never ending cycle of crooks and scammers who will do whatever it takes to get thier hands on items other people have paid real money for (this is optional but honestly if you don't spend at the very least $20 you're not going to get anywhere with this game...) on top of that, many of the people that play are very rude to anyone that's less talented then they are, preferring to mock and criticize beginners rather than help them, don't bother talking to the GMs about this issue they only respect the highest level players everyone else is just there.

A lot of the fighting styles are extremely cheap, many launch you into the air allowing what's known as "juggling" where the person who is in the air is kept in the air by a string of attacks and eventually knocked off the map for an instant kill, while being juggled your completely at the mercy of the person juggling you, and take it from me there's no such thing as mercy in this game...

This game WOULD get a 8 out of 10, but the online community has murdered the score, all I can do is give it a 2 out of 10 and recommend to anyone that reads this review to avoid this game at all costs.

Zero is an Understatement...

Fantasy Earth Zero is a War based MMO game, where hordes of players duke it out in massive wars between 5 nations for control over the continents in the region, or to be more realistic - over the one continent in the middle, as the wars never go any farther than that...

The game is centered around PvP. The only PvE in this game are the very FEW quests in each nations capital which are all the same quest done in a different way based on how your nation works. The other is fighting monsters whose sole purpose is to give you money and supplies for - yep you guessed it, the wars...

This game is in no way balanced and is in every since of the word, broken.
There is a combat triangle but don't let that fool you into thinking that if you're one side then the side you're strong against has no chance against you and will run in fear. This combat triangle is about as accurate as Runescapes. (Which if any of you pay attention to the PvP, is not accurate at all...)

Don't bother making a scout cause the warrior to mage ratio is about 100:1. Not to mention warriors cause conditions, and have AoE and Range attacks so they pretty much play the role of all three of the classes in this game. This whole game was made to favor warriors while the other classes were left for the slaughter.






I Could give this game a 0 but that would just be cruel...
This game gets a very merciful 2.5 out of 10 (1.5 out of 5)

Grab your 20 Sided dice and you...Mouse Pad?

Imagine my surprise one fine day as I'm searching around for more MMOs to tell everyone about. When I see an advertisement for this guy. Dungeons and Dragons Online! That's right you heard it hear folks. DnD comes to your PC (or MAC)

No need to buy dice! All are
included in this
special package! :D

The graphics are actually quite stunning, and everything is in real time. The combat, the dungeons, heck you even get to choose when your character takes a swing at the slimy little fish person that's attacking you.

Most dungeons look like this. A rundown storage area with lots of fun little things for you to brake along with a couple hundred enemies. Besides this, there are also crypts, sewers, and a few out in the open Base Assault and "Defend Your Castle" maps. Most of the pvp happens in the forms of friendly jousts and Bar Brawls at the Inns.

One last thing I'd like to point out is that this is one of the few games I've come across that is actually 100% F2P just like the game gloats about. You CAN purchase Turbine Coins for fun stuff in the online shops but here's the cool part. You can actually EARN FREE Turbine Coins in game, by completing special advanced dungeons, partaking in events, and they even give you some free when you gain a level every so often.

There's so much more stuff crammed into this game, it would take at least a month of typing to fill you in on the whole thing. So why don't you go try out this amazing game experience for yourself!

Lord MMO's giving this game a well deserved 9 out of 10 (4.5 out of 5)
ENJOY!

Is Dofus Only For . . . Idiots?

Contrasting to the title, Dofus Online is actually relatively good. There are lots of servers including the legendary Heroic Server were everyone plays for keeps. (Server is definitely NOT recommended for beginners) and many of the servers are for a specific language so most of the time you don't have to worry about not being able to communicate with your teammates. Assuming you play in a party which is actually recommended because the monsters sure as heck do. Another cool thing is the variety of classes, each with it's own strengths and weaknesses along with greatly varying appearances, which you can later alter with colors and equipment to make a character that is truly 100% all your own.
Bet You Can't Find Me!!!

There is still one MAJOR problem with this game. Sadly Dofus Online is in now way a F2P game. There are two relitivly large areas for free play (The starting tutorial area and the first village you go to) however all the other areas outside that requires a monthly membership fee, similar to Runescape, however unlike Runescape for all intents and purposes the free area is pretty much a Demo that gets pretty boring after level 20+.

As a free player I have to give this game a 4 out of 10 (1 out of 5)

However if I Was playing with the membership this game would get a much higher rating.
