No, we don't mean <a href="http://www.chorewars.com/"><em>Chore Wars</em></a> or <a href="http://www.rexbox.co.uk/epicwin/"><em>Epic Win</em></a> -- we mean that the change in your couch or laundry might be enough to net you a shiny new copy of an MMO! GoGamer has <a href="http://www.cityofheroes.com"><em>City of Heroes</em></a>, <a href="http://www.ageofconan.com"><em>Age of Conan</em></a> and <a href="http://www.dcuniverseonline.com"><em>DC Universe Online</em></a> on sale if you're in the market for something new to play and have some spare cash lying around (or are willing to pack a lunch for a few days). You'll need to be quick to net these deals, though, as <a href="http://www.gogamer.com/48-Hour-Madness_stcVVcatId553100VVviewcat.htm">the sale only lasts for the next two days</a>.<br />
<br />
First up at <a href="http://www.gogamer.com/viewproduct.htm?productId=67801572&amp;extid=Feb0211">the crazy price of $1.90</a> is the <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/city-of-heroes/"><em>City of Heroes</em></a> Architect Edition, which does not include <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/GoingRogue/">Going Rogue</a></em>. However, if you're a <em>City of Heroes</em> player who has not picked up the Architect Edition, you can stack this version, which will unlock either the Cyborg Pack or the Magic Pack for your characters as well as giving you a month worth of game time for a steep discount. The next one up is <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/Age-of-Conan/">Age of Conan</a></em>'s <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/RiseoftheGodslayer/"><em>Rise of the Godslayer</em></a> Gold Edition <a href="http://www.gogamer.com/viewproduct.htm?productId=102848717&amp;extid=Feb0211">expansion for $6.90</a>, which includes the core game as well. If you've never taken the jump into <em>Age of Conan</em>, now is a great time to pick it up. For those who haven't gotten the expansion yet, this edition adds in a slew of extra goodies like a puma pet, the snow mammoth, and even more -- on top of being incredibly inexpensive. From there, players can check out the PC version of <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/DC-Universe-Online/"><em>DC Universe Online</em></a> <a href="http://www.gogamer.com/viewproduct.htm?productId=102027817&amp;extid=Feb0211">for $39.99</a>, which is $10 off the normal shelf price for most retailers. This version also has the bonus item Deathstroke's Draw for players to pick up and 30 days of game time for new players. If any of that sounds good to you, head on over to GoGamer and <a href="http://www.gogamer.com/48-Hour-Madness_stcVVcatId553100VVviewcat.htm">scoop up some massive MMO savings</a>!<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2011/02/02/raid-your-couch-for-cash-and-land-a-new-mmo/">Raid your couch for cash and land a new MMO</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Wed, 02 Feb 2011 20:00:00 EST.

As tumultuous as the <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/03/26/warhammer-online-delayed-to-fall-2008/">delay</a> has been for the <a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/warhammer-online">Warhammer Online</a> fan community, an even bigger headache has loomed in the minds of many. One of the biggest details to come from the announcement of <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/03/26/warhammer-online-collectors-edition-info-released/">the Collector's Edition and its myriad of goodies</a> was that those who put in a pre-order for the CE would get early access to the Open Beta and a head start on the rest of the <span style="font-style: italic;">Warhammer</span> fanatics when it finally comes time for release sometime this fall.<br /><br />That's all well and good, but who could have anticipated the sheer number of discrepancies and problems that have arisen from these simple perks? Different retailers are handling the distribution of codes differently, there are gaping holes in the system that allow for exploitation, players are reporting on bunk codes, orcs and dwarves living together, mass hysteria! Having navigated this minefield ourselves in the quest for that <a href="http://www.warhammeronline.com/collectorsedition/">delicious artbook</a>, we thought we'd give you a bit of a rundown on the situation.<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/04/02/chaos-panic-disorder-war-ce-pre-order-rundown/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Chaos, Panic, Disorder: WAR CE pre-order rundown</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/04/02/chaos-panic-disorder-war-ce-pre-order-rundown/">Chaos, Panic, Disorder: WAR CE pre-order rundown</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:30:00 EST.

<p align="center"><a href="http://www.gogamer.com/Tabula-Rasa-Collectors-Edition-Front-Page_stcVVproductId21520141VVcatId444710VVviewprod.htm"><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="1" alt="" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/massively.joystiq.com/media/2008/02/trhdr_5.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Despite recent reports indicating that <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/tabula-rasa"><em>Tabula Rasa</em></a> was <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/02/18/tabula-rasa-down-in-the-dumps/">a money pit pulling NCsoft Austin towards the brink of the abyss</a>, you might be surprised to know that the game is actually quite a bit of fun, despite its flaws. Its fast-paced PvE gameplay has been slowed somewhat by <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/patch-1.4">recent patches</a>, and the <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/02/16/tr-guilds-say-game-over-to-the-end-game/">endgame still isn't entirely there</a>, but its combat makes up for many of its shortcomings, and its CP mechanic is as wild a ride as ever. As gamers, we want to see the <em>Tabula Rasa</em> team live on to finish building the game they have in place and fulfill the promise the game has in spades.</p>
<p>So when we submit the following deal to you, via <a href="http://www.cheapassgamer.com">Cheap Ass Gamer</a>. <em>Tabula Rasa's</em> Collectors Edition is <a href="http://www.gogamer.com/Tabula-Rasa-Collectors-Edition-Front-Page_stcVVproductId21520141VVcatId444710VVviewprod.htm">on sale at GoGamer for the strikingly low price of $14.90</a>. That's less than the cost of a monthly fee for most other MMOs, and you get lots of little goodies like an AFS field guide, <em>TR</em> dog tags, an AFS challenge coin, and a "Making of" DVD on top of a month of gameplay. Before anybody accuses us of selling out, we're not getting any kick-backs here. We would just like to see the game get its fair shot, and the easiest way we can see that happening is to get the game in the greatest number of hands as possible. So vote with your wallets, and show the suits that a sci-fi MMO can succeed in this crowded market.<br /></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/02/19/save-the-game-get-tabula-rasa-on-the-cheap/">Save the game, get Tabula Rasa on the cheap</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Tue, 19 Feb 2008 17:45:00 EST.
