checking out old stories on happypenguin.org and saw this gem about planeshift http://www.planeshift.it/ be warned though lots of flash. looks really pretty cool and the graphics look very nice as it uses the crystal space engine.

It is still very much in development...but i cannot help but rave about this one. I can't help thinking about the implications of an open source game like this especially if you like MMORPG's. Transfer all that makes os apps good to this game, and what you are left with is a world that should (ideally :wink:

) grow tremendously well. User involvement in development...longevity...oh, and free...and what we are left with is something very exciting. Okay, I know that MMORPG's have their fare share of problems, and many people do not like them...not to mention all the people who get way too involved with them...but they're obviously very popular, and i think for good reason. How much better is it to challenge/work with other humans rather than machine monsters...i think i'm tangenting ( a word ?) here. Oh well, i'm excited
