Have you been dying to recreate your favorite scenes from the Twilight series? Well me neither, but I would like to fly around kicking butt and avoiding the sunlight. This is good, being that IGG announced Moonlight: Online today. Players will soon be able to control Vampire characters as they jump, fly and climb through supernatural environments that will be rendered using a cutting edge game engine. Players have also been promised that the game will feature plenty of outlets for their creativity. Could this mean the game will feature a lot of customization for characters?
The game will also feature the ability to create and destroy entire empires with superpower abilities, all while declaring war on the Werewolves! Sounds to us like a pretty nice combination of pale, powerful and destructive -- just like we like it. Details are promised over the next weeks and months, so keep en eye out here. The game is slated for release at the end of 2010.

I agree. CCP better release World of Darkness, or at least start giving us something about the game to drool over. It's the MMO I really want to see.

It's possible this teaser could be more vague, but I'm not sure how. From what I'm seeing so far, CCP has nothing to be afraid of with this.

I can safely say that this vampire fad is more ridiculous than Pokémon.

I don't know if you can call it a fad - Interview with a Vampire was published in 1976 and the 'fad' seemed to grow with Rice's book releases - we had goth kiddies in HS back in 1987; Vampire the Masquerade was released in 1992 and put White Wolf on the map - Interview the movie was released in 1994... Most fads are only around for a year or two yet this Vampire thing has been going strong for about 30 years - the Twilight gayness is just the latest iteration... Personally, I'm just an observer of the whole thing - the sight of blood makes me puke - but I did play VtM back in the day and am excited to see what CCP will do with the IP. Malkavians FTW!

Also, Bram Stoker's Dracula was penned in 1897. Just wiki vampire and you'll find tons of vampire stories dating back centuries across various cultures and civilizations.
The Twilight vampires may be a fad, but humanity's fascination with immortality at the expense of drinking blood is not.

If that were the case, you would miss a lot of really good games! :) Still, you can click on tags or categories and that might help narrow your search.

I sent a request to Massively requesting that they set up the site so that we can choose which games we want to track. I'm sick of seeing games like this, Second Life, Dragonica, etc.
And I don't agree that we would miss out on "alot of good games". There aren't a lot of good games out there and if they are really that special, we will find out about them. Massively is so far behind on publishing their info that I don't rely on them for newsflashes or exlusive info.
So yeah... filtering options would be great. Being able to filter certain editors would be nice too if I knew they only covered certain games I have no interest in.

Seriously that narrowminded? Even if you don't like or enjoy something doesn't mean you should ignore it. That sort of Dumb ass attitude causes stagnation as you throw the baby out with the bathwater.
If it was of no interest to you why didn;t you two idiots just scroll on instead of commenting on what is of no interest to you.
Thank you massively for providing a wide coverage of games and sun genres

if you dont click on it you dont see it that simple it takes what 2 whole seconds to mousewheel scroll past to the next article? Maybe you should buy the company then and start signing the paychecks then you can pick and choose what you want to see

Yeah, I can't believe a subscription site like Massively doesn't listen to these suggestions and add the features their customers demand!

There honestly isn't that much going on in the MMO world. If Massively cuts out F2P news and stupid crap like Second Life data then they could go days with nothing.
While I agree that it's safe to say anything that gets announced by IGG or pretty much any company situated on the Asian continent is going to be absolute trash and Massively spends way too much time attached to the testicles of Second Life, if they didn't post that, then this site would be a ghost town.

If you prefer certain writers, you can click on their RSS feed and follow that. Be warned, though, that not all writers write only about one thing. (As you can see.)

Gimme an MMO where I can play as a werewolf and kick vampire *** instead of the other way around, and I might play it.

I see alot of people complaining about choice of content on this site, and I gotta say it annoys me. But yes, it's the same thing they are annoyed about, that makes me not visit Gamespot.com and Ign.com every day. It's the poor games...
That said, Massively.com is the page I will refresh and visit SEVERAL times a day. Not cause of their articles, but because they DO cover every aspect of massively gaming. I'm very sorry that your cracking down on SL and Dragonica and other F2P games and what not. It's not your thing, but you are commenting for some reason, so ovbiously you do visit this page for a reason.
Maybe you just need to look into yourself, WHY you visit THIS site, and not the "biggest fansite for YOUR game of CHOICE" instead..?
Just saying, just like you, I could be visiting some AO fansite, WoW.com or some obscure SWTOR fansite every day, instead of Massively.com, but come on now?
I find your journalism and news appropiate for my feat of knowledge. I'm sorry that alot of your readers don't, but still have the time to "nag" and "comment" about it...

They don't seem to cover much on RuneScape... Is that an MMO??
