More MMORPGs? I am shocked that publishers keep dishing out money for these massive online games considering the risk involved. They are not easy games to do right and they require a tremendous amount of manpower. Perpetual Entertainment, Inc. recently announced their plans to develop and publish not one but two of these games at the same time. The first is called “Gods and Heroes: Rome Rising”, and it will be set in Rome around 300 BC with players creating Roman heroes who will carry out quests to further the glory of Rome. The game promises large scale squad combat, and will incorporate both historical fact with Roman mythology. The game will launch this fall, for more info check out www.godsandheroes.com. The second game in the works from Perpetual Entertainment will be a Star Trek-themed MMORPG called simply “Star Trek Online”. Gamespot currently has a first look at the game, which will feature a story that takes place after the events of the last Star Trek movie, Nemesis. Players can choose from 7 different races and a number of departmental specialties. The game will feature bridge missions, away missions, as well as holodeck-created content.
