I am a former Associate Editor of Destructoid who became INTERNET FAMOUS (er, not really...) for my weekly column entitled "Miniboss Monday." You might've heard of it. It was kind of a big deal. Anyway, I've since moved on to becoming a lurker and playing my fair share of games in the meantime. Oh, and I wear a kilt, love retro video games, and drink a lot of beer. That pretty much sums me up.
As of 6:00PM EST, the closed beta testing for the PvP-centric MMO Fury has begun. Shown above, is a simple gameplay trailer with a good message that rings true to the ex-WoW players among us (including myself.) I will be partaking in this beta weekend as soon as I get home from work this evening.
On a sidenote, though the YouTube is blurry as all get-out, the game is running on the Unreal 3 engine.
I will post further updates and impressions at the end of the weekend session.
When you finally get on post what realm you're in and your character name...I'll be on sometime in the next hour or two...hopefully...I forgot to download the client earlier.
Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Worth a shot, right?
I post my stuff when i can.
D/l will take awhile
(I'm still at work and won't be on until like, 1am EST -- after patching and schtuff.)
More from me later this weekend.
