It's very likely that you've either only heard whisperings of the game
Aion or haven't heard anything at all. We honestly couldn't blame you with the huge amount of hype currently gushing out every which-way for
Warhammer Online. The human mind, while able to absorb hype like a dry sponge to water can only contain so much of it at a given time. Our hope is that with the release of
Warhammer Online just around the bend, you can eek out a little room for NCsoft's upcoming
Aion, which was just given a
wonderfully entertaining preview over at Eurogamer.
The gist of
Aion is that it's a game being developed with the best of breed concepts from Eastern and Western MMO developers. User-friendly, PvE and PvP content coming out its nose,
highly customizable characters, gorgeous graphics and uh, wings. To be fair, the wings thing is a lot cooler than it sounds when you just say 'wings' like us. You get the idea, however. Currently,
Aion is looking at an early 2009 release date.
