If you've never heard of GameKiss, you're not alone. The company hopes to change that, though, and the first step toward raising its profile is a new MMO called GhostX Ultimate. GameKiss says that the title "delivers a stand-out gameplay experience for gamers with an appetite for a completely different kind of adventure," and that it's unique in "a sea of repetitively-themed MMORPG games."
Bold claims, to be sure, but how exactly does GhostX come by its uniqueness?
For one thing, there are no classes or jobs. Instead, players develop their own catalogue of nanobot weapons that can instantly change an avatar's combat abilities from melee to short- or long-range styles. GameKiss's latest press release also says that GhostX has a "real storyline," and you can learn more about that, and download the free-to-play title, at the official website.

I guess that is a sequel to GhostX, looks similar from the trailer. Calling it an MMO is stretching the common definition a bit.

Sounds like a great idea but the game itself looks dumb IMO. Goofy, amateur graphics and... side scrolling? Also no discernible theme: looks a mashup of a million things. No thanks.

Ohhhh, bold clams.
Sounds like they have the right attitude, let's see if they can back it up.

I played some of the original GhostX a while back, when it was in beta, fun little game.
I wonder what they added to think it worthy of a new subtitle?

I really enjoyed the original GhostX. If they've increased the character customization, then I'd most definitely give this one a try.
It's actually a pretty fun game with an interesting story.

but is it an MMO? or a bunch of small scale instances?
so sick of having to do research about whether a game is an MMO or not when i'm coming to an "MMO site" hoping EVERYTHING i find on here IS actually an MMO (unless otherwise labelled).
