Matrix Online
Looking like a pretty bad ass MMORPG. Read up on it! I'll most likely get it.

It don't remind me that much of City of Heroes... I just love how they are taking the storyline of the movie and carrying it on.

It has alot of potential, but I've seen so many mmorpgs get screwed up so I am going to wait and see how the public likes it.

I saw an ad for it in the magazine, and it seems pretty cool. As plat said, it does have HUGE potential, but if its similar to the popular Matrix game on PS2, I wont be purchasing it.

well just to set you in the scenario, here is what the Newsletter that got sent to me said
| QUOTE | Neo is dead.
However, in his sacrifice, he insured peace between the humans of Zion and the Machine civilization.
The Matrix Online takes place immediately following Revolutions. It is a tense time, and while the truce has held, no one is certain how long it will last. It is very much a cold-war scenario with all sides preparing for the worst, but most praying for peace.
In the Matrix itself, three powerful organizations vie for control.
The Merovingian continues to solidify his powerbase in the face of record numbers of immigrating Exiles (machine programs that have fled into the Matrix to avoid deletion). For the Merovingian and his ilk, the continuation of the Matrix is essential. Their very existence is now housed within the code of the Matrix. And while many Exiles exhibit incredible powers, each one has a Killcode; a specific vulnerability that can instantly destroy them.
The Machines reluctantly allow the recruitment of new redpills, but the sheer number of redpills leaving the body pods is of great concern to them. Without energy from the pods, a power crisis will occur; something that the Machines want to avoid at all costs. In addition, redpills performing rule-breaking feats may be having an effect on the population at large. People rejecting the Matrix en masse may very well be a breaking point for the truce.
Zion continues its efforts to free those who see past the Matrix, but with more and more people leaving the pods, their organization is becoming fractured. Some believe that the peace Neo secured must be protected at all costs. Others believe that the machines cannot be trusted, and are quietly preparing for the eventual outbreak of hostilities. There are also those who believe that Neo is still alive...
As a newly awakened redpill, you are thrust into this maelstrom of subterfuge and mistrust. Choose your loyalties but trust no one. The ultimate fate of the Matrix is in your hands.
