No New MMORPG News a Slow Summer in 2009
Where are All the New MMORPGs for 2009?
As most MMORPG and F2P MMO fans have probably noticed by now, this summer has been pretty slow for MMORPG releases and news.
I like to follow a lot of the current happenings in the MMORPG world, but this summer has left much to be desired in the way of information, news and releases. Overall the summer of 2009 has been pretty slow for MMORPG gamers.
Because of this stagnant pause I have decided to feature some of the best games that are right on the horizon. These are titles that many fans have been looking forward to that are sure to break this tedious cycle as we get closer to the release dates.
