Today, RealU announced that they were developing an MMO based on the Otherland novel series by Tad Williams. Today we present the first screenshots to come out of their labor. The images depict Lambda Mall, a main social hub in the game, and various modes of transportation in this space. See all of the screenshots here. |

OMG...
This looks so cool. And when a game looks cool, no one plays it... Dangit I hope people can get out of their WoW/WAR mentality and try something new, unique and different! |

Well color me impressed, that's actually a damn fine shwoing for that part of the Otherland series. I hate to say it, but once again I'm cautiously optomistic about yet another really, really early-in-development game. |

Wow....Tad Williams, huh? Well, here's hoping your first forray into the MMO race (and aparrently the video game race as a whole as well: http://games.ign.com/objects/142/14286038.html) is successful. The screens look awesome and the Otherland universe opens this game up to being more than just your cookie cutter MMO. Let's hope they try to capture that spirit (you can't get much more diverse than the set of main characters in the books) And not try to eliminate it for some middle of the road focus group friendly boredom. |

It's Singapore company. There is nothing on their site but huge recruitment advertisement. P.S. While nothing is clear, but we will hope for the best. |
