FINALLY! Wizardry Online Beta!

[pacpix]

Today Wizardry Online Beta sign up finally started!    I have been waiting all summer for this game.  It was supposed to be out this summer, but the website went silent for a long time.  If your interested, this is a great podcast to get up to date: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/gilgameshs-tavern-wizardry/id546959200

WOOT!  New Trailer!

Beta goes live on the 29th!  I'm going to be watching the twitter really close too... missed out on some beta codes today.  First time I am quitting RuneScape for a new MMO.

Anybody else going to try it out?

I have never been able to get into MMO's but I will probably give the beta a go anyway.

Me too (not big on MMO's).

*BUT*:

I *LOVED* Wizardry: Tale of the Forsaken Land (on PS2) and Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls (at least the bit of it I've played so far) on my PS3!

Can any "big" 'Wizardry-Fans' here tell me if either of these 2 games are similar to the "main" Wizardry series/games?

They are spin-offs in the series and developed by a different company than the originals, but are pretty close to the classic Wizardry games.

Thanks, pacpix!

Did you play/like the spin-off games, too?

[pacpix]

I am playing the series in order right now (still on the first one ha:) ) so I have not played the spin-off games much.  I do have a Labyrinth of the Lost Souls demo on my Ipod though and it was pretty fun.

Just so you guys know if anyone signed up for beta the emails have been going out for a while.  Once the NDA is gone I'll share some info...

[godnightshade]

I got in. Did anyone else?
