Negative on the play to win! I need to be a test dummy for ps2!!

The only thing being paid for is custom skins such as camo patterns, and cosmetic packages, one off boosts, charged items, and expansion slots or content. The pay to win argument is commonly associated with console gaming and non-persistant gaming, no free MMO I have ever played has shown itself to be pay to win, I generally think when people use that argument it has more to do with the uninformed popular opinion that permeates gaming communities then the realities of f2p games. I've played just about every current free game out there and the only draw back has been restricted content, other then that I have never seen any free MMO yet that is pay to win. Are there regular games out there that do? Sure, but no MMOG's that are. STO, DDO, EQ2, DAoC, AOC, GW1, LotR, so far nothing to be pay to win. I'll let you know when I come across one, but until then jumping to conclusions isn't necessary.

Negative sir, SOE already has a MMO on the free to play model,
is the DC Online, actually I played it, its fun and it has pvp arenas.

People can buy customizations for their heroes and villains that is all. But there are not any major advantage buying with money.

They have several, not just DC Online (which is one of their lower ranked ones)

FreeRealms, EQ2, StarWars, etc.. SOE does Free2Play fairly well and I would say a close 2nd behind Turbine who started it all back in the day with DDO which is still going strong. Turbine would be a good model but smaller companies like Riot who makes LoL also have a great model and PS2 management has stated numerous times about adopting the LoL model of F2P.

I won't be checking back here so read and digest but don't feel the need to respond. Thanks,~Icky

The clip in question is 46 seconds of CG, apparently it's just a teaser for the full-length video that will debut on July 25th. It's called Death is No Excuse.

Things look brisk, that is all I can say. I think people might be surprised...

Downloading it tonight, I will give it a run thru tommorow evening.

Still.. not.. in.. Beta..
