The Matrix Online is Coming!!!

Screenies remind me of Anarchy Online.

 

What the hell dude, edit the title so it says "coming for PC" so mac users don't get hyped about it before opening the thread.

 

I can't wait

 

Does anyone find the idea of an online game based on a movie about a world taken over by computers slightly ironic?

 

Krizoitz, exactly right. and i love the idea!

i was looking at it, and i had a look at the trailer as well. should be a very good game.

well i've just built a 2.4GHz Celeron PC as well...now it's just time to get a 9600XT in there and i can have all of those PC games

 

god damn you.

You posted in mac gaming with the title its coming...


And then in the title of your post it says for PC.



BITE ME!

 

man does this mean ill have to get a PC now? i have a thing for matrix i dont know why. im usually not one for video games but ive already beat enter the matrix for game cube a number of times (i dont even HAVE gamecube! ive been playing on my brothers gamecube!)

 

Weird thing is, the day I found out about this, I had come up with a very similar idea:

Take major cities in the US and other countries (Boston, NYC, Chicago, London, LA, SF, Rome, Paris etc.), and map them at full scale, including every detail. If you see a room, you can get into it (sniping from the top of the Prudential center >=D). Then add the plot. Some sort of counter-terrorism thing like in Rainbow 6. Of course, that would take massive amounts of time and processing power, and the game would end up costing $1000 per copy.

 

You should have used an AMD Athlon cpu, celeron chips are very slow in games. A 1.8Ghz Duron would have been better (and cheaper).

 

Dumping your next Mac just for The Matrix Online??? Come on guys! WoW will be the king of MMORPGS and you can enjoy it on your new G5!

 

I was in a similar boat as you actually! Except my reason for building a PC was more of a time restriction (hard to explain). I built myself an Athlon64 system for gaming purposes. Nevertheless, I love my G5! I use it for everything other than gaming (actually, I still do that too!).

 

Enter the Matrix was an absolute dog, so any hopes I had for The Matrix Online have been toned down quite a bit. Add to that the fact that the sequels managed to both suck and blow at the same time, and you have a franchise that's just not that interesting anymore. I'm not sure the game can sustain itself beyond a few months, even with the nearly rabid fan base out there.
