Curse at the SoE Fan Faire 2009 Convention!

 

The Sony FanFaire is in full swing this weekend and Curse is here to see some of the latest things SoE has to offer!

This year Sony Trademarked possible EverQuest expansion names, which we're anxiously awaiting an update for! They're also showcasing some new (potentially) free-to-play titles, including The Agency, Pox Nora(a previously released game but new to the SoE Family), FreeRealms, and Kung-Fu Hustle! We had a chance to play The Agency last night and were really excited by the gameplay and the ability to work together with fellow players to complete missions in a dynamic environment; we're heading back to the booth today to get some more details and find out what we can!

The final subscription model for a few of the new titles hasn't been decided on but with the success that FreeRealms has had, it looks like free-to-play will be the best option for The Agency and Kung Fu-Hustle.

We were also able to get some playing time on DC Universe Online. The game has excellent graphics and gameplay, and offers players the ability to use flight in combat and gameplay. The UI was very clean and easy to use, and we were able to start battling without a big learning curve. Hands-on time was limited due to the massive number of people here, but we'll get on it again and see what other juicy details we squeeze out!

During the weekend we're going to be playing the new games and meeting with developers, we'll post any new news and information we find out at the event, if you have any specific questions post them here as a comment and we'll do what we can to get answers!
