Stratics Reviews:

• Shot Online - by Tiveria - added 11/01/06
  If hack-n-slash is not your thing, maybe you'll find Shot Online a nice alternative to the typical MMO. Set on a golf course in anime-style, this title provides a calming approach to the traditional online experience.
  
  
• EverQuest II - by Kirk "Moxcamel" Rafferty
  Five years after launching what would become the definitive name in massive online role-playing games, Sony Online Entertainment has unleashed the heir apparent to the title, EverQuest II. It's a tough act to follow, and Sony must certainly be aware that in addition to the expectations that come with a normal launch, thousands of EverQuest fans are watching with a critical eye.
  
  
• FaitH - by Jen McClaren
  FaitH is played in eras lasting about 3 months. You play the emperor or empress of a province that is part of a larger kingdom. Depending on which account you pay for you can customize more parts of it on creation, like the layout of your map, statistics, a custom general, your appearance, and the time of your tax seasons.
  
  
• Anarchy Online: Shadowlands - by Andree "Meister" Ehrig
  Not an easy task, considering the sheer proportions of this expansion pack. An entirely new world, thousands of new items, loads of monsters, improved graphics and sound, lots of new features and two new professions.
  
  
• Legacy Online - by Misty "Beans" Matonis
  Legacy Online is unlike any other massively multiplayer you've ever played before. Well, chances are you've never even heard of it, let alone played it. And, if you're a fan of simulation games, frankly, you should be ashamed of yourself.
  
  
• Dark Ages: Medenia - by Nelson Thackuch added 04-17-03
  Dark Ages is a roleplaying game where players are actually expected to roleplay (what a concept). When I first read this, I was overjoyed that there was a company requesting and enforcing the laws set forth in a RP game.
  
  
• A Tale in the Desert - reviewed by Andrew "Tchrin" Knight added 03-01-03

• The Sims Online by Tammy "Thalia" Davies added 02-26-03

  The game is based on the premise that Asheron, a once mighty magician, accidentally opened a portal to Dereth while tinkering with different magics in portal summoning. This portal allowed various creatures, among them the mighty Olthoi, to infiltrate the land and call it their new home. In a bit of a panic, Asheron opened up a series of new portal to try and help the Empyreans, his fellow race of super-humans, to escape.
