Just happened to chance onto this. http://www.huxleygame.com/index.htm Based on Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, supposedly...though...there weren't any mutants or power sources or anything in Brave New World, but hey. I wouldn't mind some Soma and some nice group sex. It looks really nice, though 
looks like a game to watch. |

Been on to this for quite a while - It's coming for the Xbox 360. I might, repeat, MIGHT, concider paying for this one as well as EQ, if my money is ok. If not, I'll try get a free trial, and see how it goes. |

yea, it's being built for PC and Xbox360. I agree, the screens are HAUGHT! As for my references, they're from Brave New World (the book). I highly recommend you read it if you haven't. It's one of Dystopian literature's defining works. |

HAH sorry satis, getting mole to read a book would be funny enough, but he's not likely to read Brave New World... hehe. Actually i never read it yet |

you guys are incorrigible. That's one of those books that people should be forced to read in high school...and, actually, many people are. I read it on my own, but I like reading. Unlike some people. 
Anyway, back on topic, if the graphics are that good, I'd be tempted to try the thing out just for that. An MMO with next-gen graphics? Hell yea! Right now I think GW has the best graphics of any MMO, and it's very...well...average. The backgrounds look pretty damned good, but there're enough limitations that it doesn't seem very advanced...just good. Everything else sucks. Maybe EQ2 makes you guys drool, but not me. WoW is freakin' ugly...I thought it was ugly when it first came out...now it's positively ancient. The rest are no better, imo. Of course, everyone knows I'm a graphics snob. |

Off course I read Brave New World, I used to love reading too, now I don't have time for that anymore. But I'm no fan of MMORPGs. And I'm no fan of games or movies made from books with odd stuff added either.

heh i woulda but we had many things we were reading at a-level, then we had to do a book report and we all had to choose from a list; someone else got Brave New World. I gotta agree GW has the best graphics. WoW, well I dont like cartoony graphics. UO on the 2d client is cool (in the sense of D2 is cool, you see a lot of detail but its still not a patch on a proper 3d game). EQ2 is ok, the actual models are relatively detailed but the landscape texture is horrible (ok so I don't have it on max graphics but I still have it on fairly high). FFXI aint too bad but then its also slightly cartoony, being japanese style. |

Yeah, books don't hold my attention. My imagination does a better job, because I can't dirrectly control the book. (Unless I throw it out a window or such) Yeah, said it before and i'll say it again, GW IS NOT AN MMO... *pants* Haha, that aside, I want huxley and I want it now. I've seen the video on the preorder xbox 360 demo DVD about... 5 months ago? I was creaming my self there an then. Is it me, or are the graphics in the first screenshot better than the last two? |

There's a Gamespy preview here.
Then why use the goddamn name? They've disappointed me already, and I don't know anything about it yet. |

Yeah, I think I might have mentioned it. I also have ownership of www.huxleymmo.com if any of you are interested. (Just the URL) |

lol, domain squatter. Hope you come up with some good content for that. I'd recommend at least setting up a pointer to it with some basic huxley mmo info...otherwise you run the risk of running afoul of anti-squatter rules and getting the domain repossessed. That is if the huxley peeps care to actually file a grievance.
