Massively Multiplayer Online games are the future. Or at least thats what many of the observing developers to Blizzards cash cow World of Warcraft are probably thinking.
Nihilistic has unveiled a couple screens from their upcoming MMORPG Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures, for Games for Windows (AKA PC), and the next current-gen juggernauts Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 (sorry Wii).
Some of the listed specifications include:
- More than 20 different weapons.
- 100 unique combat moves.
- Severe heads and limbs with the limb-specific damage system.
I don’t know about you, but a limb-specific severing system has me totally sold on this game expected for an early 2008 release.
Read on for the first screenshots….


(Thanks Gaming Bits.)
