http://www.uxo.ea.com/intro.htmlLooks to be pretty sweet, a friend of mine pointed it out to me and we are gonna check it out in April. This seems to be a year off MMOs. What we really need is a Metaverse (from Neal Stephensons 'Snow Crash') MMO. Anyone know what I'm talkin aboot?

Aye, I was going to read that, but they didn't have it at Barnes and Noble. There's a free trial out there for the current Ultima, I believe, I'll see if I can find where I saw that and post a link soon.For MMOs though, it's still all about http://www.cityofheroes.com/.

I played Ultimas back in the day but I haven't since. I've heard the single player games of late have lacked but I have much faith in EA in a quality product. And the Heroes thing, while cool just doesn't do it for me on the computer.

Well you'll be missing out!

(Is anybody aside from me even considering playing it, LoL)Here's the 15-day free trial of Ultima Online: Age of Shadows. You might have to register for a free GAmespot account before you can download it, I can't remember for sure.http://dlx.gamespot.com/pc/ultimaonline ... 76248.html
