Free for All: Twenty-five free MMOs for that shiny new laptop
So there you are, reading a column from your favorite Massively writer on your shiny new laptop. You might be stuck with your parents and family because of the snow, or you might simply want to find a new MMORPG to play on the device. Perhaps you broke down and bought that cute pink netbook at Target, and now you need something to do with it besides reading your favorite writer of all time? Don't worry, because I've taken the time to compile and test 25 MMOs that will work wonderfully on your new toy! Yes, there are real MMOs out there that are not dependent on the latest graphics card or six gigs of ram. These are fully realized worlds, complete with chat windows and socializing. I will make a note if the game might have some difficulty on the oldest of hardware -- or the least powerful -- so keep an eye out for that. Otherwise, download away! For the record, this is my new toy. I got it for work, but you know the first thing I had to do was try out gaming on it. Click past the cut to see the list!
Canaan Online announces first expansion
Canaan Online, the browser-based free-to-play game from gPotato, has announced its first free expansion. Journey to Elven Land is free, of course, and brings some exciting additions to the game, beginning with a shiny new level cap. Players will be able to play to level 80 with the expansion, and there are plenty of new things to explore as they level. Journey to Elven Land will open three new zones -- Fellias, the Kartal Peninsula, and Elven Land -- with associated instances, as well as PvP. Pet breeding comes to Canaan Online with this expansion as well, and players can combine pets to generate bigger, better, and stronger sidekicks. Finally, that unwanted gear isn't just merchant fodder anymore. With the addition of dismantling to the game, you can break those items down into raw materials, and use them to create new items! The expansion is live now, so visit the Canaan Online site to check it out!
