mejores mmorpg gratis

Pi Story es un MMORPG gratis



Metin2 mmorpg gratuito


Metin2 te permite introducir en un mundo fantástico oriental. Conviértete en un maestro de artes marciales y lucha como aliado del Dios Dragón contra la influencia oscura de las Piedras Metin, con la posesión de la tierra. Lucha en batallas salvajes para uno de los tres imperios, conquista sus tierras y posesiones o reunelos para convertirte en el nuevo Emperador de la tierra. ¡Tu destino está en tus manos!


Tabula Rasa Trial mmorpg gratis

Otro de los nuevos proyectos de NCSoft es Tabula Rasa, un MMOFPS abanderado por el mismísimo Richard Garriot, el padre de Ultima Online. En un futuro lejano, la humanidad ha colonizado otros planetas, la historia de Tabula Rasa empieza con la aparición de una raza alienígena bélica que quiere conquistarlo todo. Los jugadores tomarán el papel de los humanos rebeldes que tendrán que hacer todo lo que esté en sus manos para acabar con esta plaga extraterrestre. Tabula Rasa contará con historias de gran profundidad que introduzcan de lleno a los aventureros en el frente de batalla haciendo que sus acciones influencien directamente en el avance o retroceso del mismo. A pesar de mantener la estructura de un MMORPG normal, Tabula Rasa contará con numerosas características de un juego de acción en primera persona, como todo tipo de elementos destruibles, manejo de vehículos y de grandes armas. Visualmente tampoco se queda atrás y por todo lo que se ha podido ver tanto en videos e imágenes como en las diferentes ferias donde se ha mostrado queda claro que Tabula Rasa es un título a tener en cuenta para los amantes de la ciencia ficción.

Tibia mmorpg gratuito

Tibia es un juego de los más antiguos y de gran jugabilidad dentro de los juegos de rol en multijugador, más conocidos como MMORPGs, creado por CipSoft[5]

Comenzó en el año 1997 como un programa experimental no comercial creado por tres estudiantes universitarios alemanes, que seguían la carrera de sistema en computación. La mayoría de sus gráficos eran similares al clásico juego Ultima Online, y gracias a voluntarios que se encargaron en la administración, la parte artística y el nivel de diseño, se logró transformar a Tibia en un producto comercial a escala profesional.[6] Lo que permitió que el juego tuviera potenciales cambios durante el pasar de los años.


Descargar Wonderland Online 2.0.3 gratis


Wonderland Online es un juego de rol online multijugador combinado con un sistema social y con un magnífico entorno visual.

Wonderland Online es muy diferente de otros juegos como Silkroad Online respecto al tema del combate, ya que el juego no es en tiempo real, para luchar con un enemigo te enfrentas a el a través de un entorno parecido al juego Final Fantasy, una vez allí escoges las acciones que quieres ir haciendo y se van sucediendo turnos hasta que finaliza el combate.

Wonderland Online combina el juego de rol online con un sistema de red social, es un fantástico juego que no puede faltar a ningún apasionado del mundo del rol.


Descargar Tales of Pirates mmorpg gratuito


Basado en un trasfondo histórico de 5.000 años con el tema de la piratería como tema central, Tales of Pirates permite a los jugadores tener una experiencia de navegación como de exploración de lo desconocido. Este juego diseñado completamente en 3D es de naturaleza cómica y todos los personsajes y criaturas tienen un aspecto humorístico. Los movimientos exageradas y las acciones tanto de los personajes como los objetos, junto a la atmósfera del juego, hacen de este título muy interesante para nuevos jugadores y veteranos que quieran divertirse.

Mejores video juegos de la historia.

ADVERTISEMENT:

Video games have some of the most amazing characters and graphics. People often adapt these characters into real life in what is now termed Cosplay. If you have a favorite character you would like to bring to life why not try it out this Fall with Halloween costumes that, with a little imagination, can turn your favorite video game hero or villain into a real life character. Choose your character costumes from among “The Best Video Games in the History of Humanity” and throw a costume party for all your friends with a bunch of T.V’s set up with all the best games ready to be played. Have prizes for best costumes, highest score and anything else you can think of. With a little planning it could be one of the best parties of the year

The Best Video Games in the History of Humanity

I'm not the only guy who likes making lists. Over the years, many gaming magazines and websites have made lengthy lists of their own in an attempt to compile comprehensive guides chronicling the best video games of all time. Here is a summary of some of the leading Top 10s, as excerpted from various Top 100 lists.

I have tried to be as diverse and inclusive as possible in my selection of lists. Some will inevitably appear more credible than others, but my intent was quantity more than quality. By assembling a collection of lists that was as vast as possible, I was hoping to see if there appears to be any consensus as to what games truly are history's best. My findings come at the end.

PLATFORMS
PC Arcade NES
Super Nintendo Playstation Nintendo 64
Sega Saturn Dreamcast Sega Saturn
Game Cube Playstation 2 X Box
Multiple Game Boy

Note: As the years progress, games tend to appear on more and more systems. For example, today you can play Super Mario Bros. on Gameboy Advance, and Ocarina of Time on the Game Cube. In the interest of preserving each game's original "flavor," whenever possible I have identified games on the basis of which platform they were primarily designed for. Games that were actively intended to be on multiple platforms at the time of their original debut are the ones that get the "multiple" status. I use English names for games, but usually Japanese release dates.

Overall

Assuming these lists represent voices of authority in the gaming community, we can easily make a cumulative list averaging out the most universally popular games. I'm not smart enough to do mathematical averages of rank, but based on sheer popularity (as defined by appearing on 14 or more lists, ie: at least 50%), the top five games of all time seem to be:

1 Super Mario 64 (19 out of 28 lists) 67%
2 Tetris (appears on 18 out of the 28) 64%
2 Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (18 out of 28) 64%
3 Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (15 out of 28) 53%
4 Street Fighter II (14 out of 28) 50%

As you can see, it's very close. Every time I update this list with a new chart number the top five fluctuates.

Other popular titles:

Goldeneye 007 (11 out of 27)
Super Mario Bros. (10 out of 27)
Super Metroid (9 out of 27)
Final Fantasy III / VI (9 out of 27)
Final Fantasy VII (7 out of 27)

1 PC (21 games)
2 Super Nintendo (11)
3 Multiple (10)

6 Arcade (5)
7 Nintendo 64 (4)
8 Sega Saturn (2)
8 X Box (2)
9 Sega Dreamcast (1)
9 Game Boy (1)

Conclusions

These lists inevitably represent a whole host of different agendas, outlooks, and opinions on what constitutes a "great" video game. Some placed a great emphasis on recognizing games that were historically "relevant" or "innovative" while others simply celebrated games that were fun to play.

The fact that PC games have such a high total overall is largely an indication that there is not much consensus over which PC games are best. Despite their groundbreaking work in many genres, in the end it seems that PC games have been unable to really capture the public's imagination in the same way console games have.

If we are to name a "golden era" of gaming, it appears to be the mid-to-late 90's. The early arcade / PC era of the 80's has apparently been largely forgotten, and few post-1999 games appear to have left much of an impact. Nintendo Power's 1997 list, though now almost ten years old, thus stands up well today, as the classics it recognized still remain amongst the most contemporarily popular.

Other thoughts:

- Action games tend to be the most popular genre.

- Sonic the Hedgehog is not popular. In fact, Sega in general has not left much of a legacy, with no Genesis games making anyone's lists.

- Tetris is the only puzzle game anyone seems to care about.

- The most popular video game character of all time is clearly Link, closely followed by Mario.

- Despite being the famed "first video game ever" Pong has not aged well, and today no one seems to consider it relevant. Pac Man and Space Invaders are also surprisingly unpopular.

Oh yeah. I've had some requests to include my own personal top ten, so here goes. I'm not really that knowledgeable about video games... there are a lot of classics I've never played. But I know what I like. These are the ten games I consider to be the most brilliant:

3 Donkey Kong Country 3 Rare 1996
4 Final Fantasy VII Squaresoft 1997

7 Pac Man Namco 1980
8 Earthbound Nintendo 1995
9 Monkey Island 2 Lucas Arts 1990
10 Megaman 3 Capcom 1990

Brilliant is the key word. These are all games that I look at with a sense of admiration for what went into them. They are just so well put together and... ingenious. Someday I'll write a more in-depth explanation of why each one has won my heart in its own unique way.
