As long as the issues of future games, mainly MMORPG's are up, I would like to discuss one shadowbane.
I believe that shadowbane is a revolutionary game, and will probably beat Majestic for the game of 2002.
Shadowbane is an online game with thousands of people interacting, much like UO, EQ, AC, or AO. Unlike all these games, however, it is dynamic. It allows you, and your friends, to *change* the world. You can do anything you want to in this game, and it will have an effect. You can build a city, like our guild will, or try to effect the storyline, which is currently the size of a novel and growing.
You can gamble, fight, join a nation, build shops, compete, talk, everything. This is a world, not just a game. And the graphics are as impressive as any other MMORPG, only much better.
