I hope some other companies out there follow suit. Come on Sony, you can't keep people paying for EQ 1 with EQ 2 out...

This kicks arse, I always wanted to play it for some reason, so i'm currently downloading the client via the 820 BT see ya on tonight.

Edit: *The offer is only valid if you sign up a new Anarchy Online account between the 15th of December 2004 and 15th of January 2005. You can play free of charge until 1/1 2006. Should Funcom deem that a too high-increase in server load or other unforeseen events will lessen the experience for existing players the offer will be terminated at our discretion. The free version does not include access to any of the three expansion packs. Should you wish to upgrade to any of the expansion packs monthly subscription and client fees will be added.

So it a great 1 year free trial of the basic set up of the game as long as you reg before jan 15th

Interesting gimmick "Should you wish to upgrade to any of the expansion packs monthly subscription and client fees will be added." I'll probably try it out, because except for the massive bug issues, AO sounded pretty fun for an mmorpg when it first came out.

Hrm, I think I like the concept. Even if the idea is succesful and proceeds the way logic dictates it would until the end product is a nerfed, glorified demo for free, that's still a fair bit better than many online games offer without a cc.

Guess I'll try it out, not big on MMORPGs, but its free, can't argue with that.

Be aware that all the best features were implemented in the second and third expansions. The basic game lacks content, you'll spend the majority of your time in instanced missions which have no real point. The areas introduced in the Shadowlands expansion are where you find all the quests and interesting NPCs, plus the experience there is about 3 times faster than what you find in the starting world. Playing Anarchy Online without expansions really is like playing a beta version... it's like a "this is what our game is like" experience.
