Players are able to fly World War Two era fighter aircraft and bombers, navigate capital ships and aircraft carriers, man coastal defenses, drive tanks and jeeps, control stationary weapons on the battlefield or aboard vehicles or just fight as one of five classes of infantry. Some argued that Battlefield 1942 had one of the most realistic physics and game engines available in FPSs on the market when it came out in 2002; others however, find this debatable because of certain details. For example, tanks tended to lob their projectiles (which should have had a very flat trajectory) and target leading was arguably due to game and network lag rather than programmed physics.

Each battle takes place on one of several maps located in a variety of places and famous battlefields in all of the major theaters of World War II: the Pacific, European, North African and Eastern Fronts. While the combat is always Axis Powers versus Allies, the location determines which specific armies are used (for example, on the Iwo Jima map, it is Japan versus the United States, while on the Battle of Britain map, it is Germany versus the United Kingdom). The maps in Battlefield 1942 are based on real battles, but are not necessarily realistically portrayed; an example of this is the presence of American forces on the Operation Market Garden map, even though, in reality, the Americans had no participation in the battle at Arnhem where this particular map takes place.

]]> 12 Mar 2007 01:40:14 The Legend of Ares is a free 3D, MMORPG game developed by MGame USA Inc. It is currently in Open Beta. Like most 3D MMORPGs, it is a point and click game, where players can attack monsters, pick up items, and talk to NPCs.

The game contains two nations which a player can choose to join, Holy Empire and Religious Alliance; four classes, Knight, Spearman, Archer and Sorcerer. To become a stronger character, the player must kill monsters for EXP (experience points) to level up. As a player advances in levels, it is possible to pick fights, not only with monsters, but with players of either country.

Players can form guilds which allow for more social interaction, other people to quest with, and the addition of a cape and guild tag. They can also engage in guild wars, involving two guilds fighting each other. Upon reaching level 40, players can take part in scheduled territorial wars, and fight against members of the opposing nation.

Ares, Greek god of war, has become resentful of his fellow gods, and wishes to gain more power in order to defeat them. However, the Greek city-states are already warring, and Ares must find new lands in which war can be started. At the same time, the land of Arabic is at a restless peace, with the leaders of both The Holy Empire, and The Religious Alliance ready to break it. Ares travels to Arabic, appearing to Emperor Damion of The Holy Empire as a crow, and incites him to attack the Alliance. Athena, Ares' sister, gains knowledge of this plan, and also travels to Arabic, and informs the native god Kulam of the foreign gods intrusion. Under her guidance, Kulam convinces Aleria, the daughter of Alliance leader Abner, to retrieve an artifact that could confine Ares and prevent him from completing his plan.
