You click the link? It's right there on the page. Cool video, but Pong;s graphics are better.

I got sucked into Lord of Ultima a while back. I'm not sure what I want to do at this point. But I do know I spent way too much time on it.

Again trailer, a lot lot better than the crappy prequels.

people care about live gameplay

Game looks alittle cartoony, I gotta see more to judge though. I wouldn't mind a MMO to play since I quit WoW years ago.

That....was....sick.

Got the same actor to voice the gunslinger as did Marcus Fenix on Gears of War and Bender on Futurama.

And for all that sucks in life, the guy is a Commanders fan.

The game play video I saw looked a lot like standard MMO fare. I'll stick buy the game at release but I'm not expecting it to change MMOs.

Nerdgasm! lol

Video looked great, I wonder how it'll play. I played galaxies for a little bit, fun but could never really get into it.

 

[YosemiteSam]

That is a cinematic and not actual game play. Most of the time it doesn't look exactly like that.

Thanks. It seems like a copy of WOW with different skins. Well, the choice of dialog paths I believe is different.

That's the impression I get as well. Nothing really blew me away with the game play.

Gameplay looks pretty darn good too. The quests looks a 100 times better than WOW's cut and paste quests.
