    Hey all, i've been hearing alot of hype about this new game coming out called Huxley. My friends have been talking up on this game for months now, and I was curious if anyone here knew much about it. Whens it com'in out? Does anyone know the system requirements, and could I run it? Whats your overall opinions on the game good or bad? Can you make any comparisons with the game play to other games?

    thanks, shmitty

    Heh... ever play PlanetSide? Was fun for that... when there were enough people concentrated in one area, could see that many or more fighting together.

    Biggest problem with FPS MMO type games... turning up your graphics can actually be worse. If you had the grass turned on, or full tree detail turned on, other players would turn theirs off, duck down where they new people with detail couldn't see them, and pick off targets.

    But I'm excited to see that as well. And I still want to try Hellgate.

    Havent bought too many games lately. Wanted to jump in on some MM RPG type game and Huxley sounds very interesting. I just preorded pirates of the burning sea and will prolly try to get the beta up and running tonight. Hopefully that will keep me entertained for a while. But yea, Huxley sounds like it could be a sick game.
