    Just wonder what's happening in this area of games, i've heard about a bunch of them in development, but non have come to fruitition?

    An MMO of sim city would be awesome :)

    I remember there being an rts based with ships flying in the sky, and it'd take a few days to complete a game due to the scale of it. Not sure what it was called.

    @mods, figured this is right forum as it's about mmo's.

    End of Nations looks pretty good.

    Looks good very like world on conflict.
    These Trion guys have been busy what with Rift arriving soon too.

    Could look at Byond protocol.
    I remember they had a fairly big magazine advertisement campaign before it came out but haven't heard much about it since:

    I think there are some browser based mmo strats. Can't remember the one I played, but it was based on Greek mythology. Decent game, but you need to become part of a massive alliance asap or else you're just fodder.

    I was going to recommend Time of Defiance, but the developer recently shut that down. They've since moved over to Picaroon which you can find here:

    I haven't tried it personally, despite a closed beta invite but if it's anything like Time of Defiance then it will be fantastic fun. It's also free-to-play.

    Then there are the two browser based Real-time based strategy games, Terra Militaris and Castle of Heroes from gPotato. You can find em here:

    All Free-to-play.

    Age of Empires Online is going into Beta, should be an interesting twist on the series.
