Webzen has released some new screenshots of Huxley, the upcoming Unreal Engine 3 powered MMO first person shooter for Xbox 360 and PC.
Player Affinity: "Although many MMO-style games try to ape World of Warcraft’s success and formula, there are relatively few quality FPS titles that venture into the MMO arena. Planetside was one moderately successful title in this vein, but often was regarded as too sterile and uncoordinated. Hellgate: London tried it as well to little triumph. With these remnants of titles still kicking around, is there any chance of a MMOFPS that gets it right? Hopefully, Webzen Inc.’s Huxley can fill those shoes. Huxley has been in development for several years and recently expanded to open beta; it will attempt to bridge the gap between modern shooters and the expansive world of MMORPGs like World of Warcraft."
Huxley, a first-person MMO, was first announced way back at E3 2005. The game utilized Unreal Engine 3 and was supposed to come to both Xbox 360 and PC. Things have changed since then, of course. Huxley has gone through numerous delays and the console version has been put on hold indefinitely.
A complete listing of released and upcoming MMO shooter/action games.
That is an incredible list of games with a lot of useful guides and content. THanks!
I am going to make my way through this entire list and be terrible at every game.
Graphics looks good but Unreal Tournament 3 looks better IMO.
oh well you know what is an MMO, were hundreds if not thousands of people play together in the same open world while UT3 is freaking arena shooter!
Its entering closed beta testing this coming week.So there is still enough time to add a bit more graphical polish.
From what i see already it looks great.Cant wait for this MMOFPS with over hundreds of players.
So they can't really have great graphics. But looks good for that amount of action that will be happening.
its an mmo plus unreal tournament is handled by epic the masterminds of unreal engine. I cnt believe this is another shooter though. 1 of my friends who got a ps3 was complaining why are there so many fps's. He bought heavenly sword and resistance and he is looking forward to lost planet lol. only reason he bought a ps3 was for mgs and god of war. It really sucks that shooters are essentially dominating this gen. i could handle the occassional shooter on ps2 but everywhere i look there isa shooter. blacksite, time shift, orangebox(5 shooters in 1), unreal tournament. Its not like i hate shooters personally but devs need to chill with the shooters
