It's SL + some :p

It's obviously not 1:1, I'm not saying that at all. It is a social MMO just like SL was designed to be in a 3D space. They've taken the idea and tweaked it / added their ideas, on top of the gaming integration.

Like I said, not getting into a huge debate about it, we've already gone over it a million times lol. Just wait to see what the wider gaming audience thinks when it's released!

I guarantee you'll be hearing a lot of "The Sims" & "Second Life" coments though and its obvious why.

Yeah that's been happening since day 1, but I thought most of us knew better :p

We know the differences, what goes into the service, how it operates, some of us, yourself included, even knowledge about all the networking and interaction with things like game launching/clan clubs, etc.

So I'd expect people who look at it graphically to be saying Sims/SL, but quite frankly it's not a clone when looked at in depth, just shares similarities - Unavoidable similarties, how else can you build a 3D world without avatars/character integration and personalization?

Would be a pretty bland world without all of them. Bland for those interested, obviously there's the dislikers who'll just say it's bland regardless of what it offers.

Yeah I know, I just had to make a post to get 1001 posts.

Hopefully it is something better than SL, even tho the principles are the same.

As long as the meeting up and starting game sessions is there, then it could be a good way to get some gaming in, im not sure if the game session thing or starting like Motorstorm was there yet?

**Edit 3pm**

Still progressing nicely, now on the testing stage. No eta still as I wouldnt want to guess how long it will take for each region to verify its elements are working but we're getting there.

**Edit 3:15pm**

Not there yet, the testing is still going on, but I wanted to mention a couple of other things that need clarification.

The Far Cry2 and Uncharted spaces will not be available in our region today as the localisation and testing phase is not yet complete. They will follow on later.

Additonally the Diesel and Ligne Roset content will be added next week at the same time as the Red Bull Air Race.

So that basically sucks
