Fate of the Unwanted

http://secondlife.com/Not that I'm actually going to play it (probably), but it seems to be a pretty cool idea. You pay a one-time membership fee of $9.95 (plus a bit more to buy land) and you use the in-game creation tools to build everything. For instance you can make yourself a flying car, give yourself superpowers, pretty much whatever you want. Also, if you happen to build a site that becomes very popular (such as a theme park or something) then they'll give you a certain percent of their profits. Sounds interesting.

Eep!That actually sounds fun! May consider this for fun. Or at least try the trial.

holy shit. ijust went through the whole site for that, and it is insane!!! you can literally do anything! like a Sim's Online that actually works!!!! if i didnt love swg so much, i would definetly look into this, but it also looks complicated. i looked at a screenshot of someone "crafting" a gun, and it was hard as crap. physics and stuff actually apply! but this looks really innovative to say the least. i encourage everyone to look at the site.

I read about this in CGW a while back I think. The concept of it sounds very appealing, but it also sounds pretty complicated. The learning curve on it will probably be like 10x more than SWG's.

This ah...doesn't look like my type of game...

In it, there's a kind of cyberworld...thing...where people who know they're way around programming and whatnot are basically in control. I know Milk has read it and said somewhere that he wished there were an MMOG that kind of played off that idea, and this seems a bit similar, which is why I brought it up.

One time fee of $10.I spend more then that on lunch in a week. Also, it does look pretty tough to learn. That's a good thing. Perhaps it will weed out the, 'omg wtf lol uber l33t!!11!'s.

On the site they have a 7 day free trial. I might just look into this, because even I, GW, can be very creative. I mean hell, just look at me and Viper on HL2...

Hell, I even made a Matrix scene 8)

OMG Barney completely kicked the shit out of those Combine.
