Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Prepare for Plenty of Sleepless Nights

Vendetta Online is a 3-D massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) set in space. Pilot your spacecraft online alongside thousands of others and build your reputation as a military pilot, explorer, merchant, mercenary, pirate, and more. Join guilds and fly group missions against player and nonplayer opponents. Take part in largescale space battles between nations. Multiple flight models allow for joystick and mouse control. A fully real-time combat system brings an intense, immersive feel to interstellar warfare. Come explore the Vendetta Online galaxy!

Users may build their characters in any direction they desire, becoming rich captains of industry, military heroes, or outlaws.

All combat within the game is fully real-time, based entirely on "twitch" skill (no "virtual dice rolling"). This style of combat model supplies intense action, coupled with the backdrop of RPG gameplay in a massive online galaxy.

Three major player factions form a delicate balance of power, with several NPC sub-factions creating situations of economic struggle, political intrigue, and conflict. The completely persistent universe and detailed storyline add to the depth of immersion, resulting in a unique online experience.

With the Fall 2004 shutdown of EA’s Earth & Beyond universe, Vendetta arrives just in time for MMORPG’ers looking for a new fix.

Product Description

Vendetta Online is the new massive multiplayer game where you'll fight for one of 3 unique human cultures in a persistent real-time universe. Become a space pilot fighting for your race, across the galaxy. Form groups, fight against NPCs and engage in massive large-scale combat. Full real-time combat for the survival of your Nation!

Multiplatform, highly compatibile, high performance, low lag, twitch-based... VO has a lot of buzzwords. And it lives up to all of them. This game is one of the best I've played. Ever. Buy it. Download it. But don't miss it.

This review is from: Vendetta Online (CD-ROM)

WARNING: highly addictive game, you might spend too much time playing this game. Finally something new in an MMO. It's not your standard run around as a person and kill stuff; you get to fly cool space fighters and bombers. If you like flight sim and/or arcade shooters you'll love this game. Grouping with people to go on missions is really cool. Grab a friend or two and come play, this game is well worth the few buck you spend. Hey you can always try the free 8 hour free trial if you're not sure.
