Sony Online Entertainment's former PlayStation exclusive MMO was a bit revolutionary, mainly because no one had really attempted to put an MMO on a console before. The game did have teething problems to begin with, but overtime garnered a huge following which is only set to get bigger as it makes its way to Xbox One later this year. I've never been one for MMOs, but clearly Daybreak must be doing something well with the genre, as the title is still going strong a little close to five years since it first released. That element of creating your own hero or villain and entering one of the foremost modern mythical universes must obviously be a huge draw, but the story, combat and more all seem to be faring well with an audience not really aclimatised to the whole 'MMO thing'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WYwXer0sgU Plus, it had a pretty awesome CGI trailer to accompany its release - what's not to love?
