Project Entropia's Universe Solidifies

Posted by timothy on from the sweden's-largest-software-project dept.

Psyiode writes "Swedish interactive entertainment developer MindArk today announced the virtual universe Project Entropia is going gold on January 30th 2003. If you'll recall, Project Entropia is a MMORPG where everything is purchased with real money and slowly degrades during use. Could this be the way most online games will be played (and paid for) in the future?"

  1. The gaming rules I follow by bl968 · · Score: 2, Offtopic

    If I pay for the game software I am entitled to play for free. Blizzard is a prime example of this in action and working..

    If I get the software free I am willing to pay to play.

    I am not willing to violate rule 1 or 2.

    If they expect me to pay for the software and pay to play and pay for stuff in the game they must be totally bonkers.
