Enter the Matrix....leave running.   
Hello everyone....

My name is David and I am a MMORPG-aholic.


Just a heads up on the Matrix online, there is no need for a mini review on
this title....for it is a holy piece of CRAP which can only be described by
me as Neocron with all of  "it's" goodness stripped away.

Matrix is a clunky, unfinished, Fisher Price in content and design....and
yet still manages to exceed my computers specs game(video card) where
WoW,Coh, AC, DAoC and many others run flawlessly.  I know I know that's
really my fault.  I was amazed by the stench given off by
this....."game".....please guys save your $50 and your hard drive space.

I played the beta. I was not impressed. I played EQ2 trial. OMG, it's shite 
compared to AC2. I predict that EQ2 will tank worse then AC2 did.

I'm not sure that's even possible.

I went over the entire Matrix site and found ZERO links to unsubscribe to
the game....I thought I possibly needed glasses or more patience, I then
contacted online support and got an email back from them this morning with
an 800 number to cancel.  Talked to Lared who I believe is related to "The
Whiners" from the old SNL days and he told me that there is no information
about canceling online and that you have to do exactly what I did, hell at
least E&B provided an 800 number to cancel.

After he cancelled my account he asked my to answer a few questions about
why I cancelled........<click>.

What a piece of horse shite that is!

I am.  In my opinion EQ was really bad so an EQ2 tank wouldn't surprise me
but AC2 ....even though it didn't do well it was really a pretty good game,
what killed it was lack of interest and the shock to ACers that the game was
not an AC clone with new content and continuing storyline.  There were other
issues but nothing others games haven't encountered.

Apparently, the retail is a lot better than the beta, but
who knows what that means.  A friend of mine says the combat
is fairly unique.

Unique only if you call non-combat a unique game option, basically you
initiate combat in either guns or close combat then pick fast, power, grab,
block and/or "moves" that you  learn along the way.  Combat really made me
want to go have a cup of coffee and check back later.  It ranks up there
with FFXI for me.

It has to be a LOT better if it's going to anywere! Visually, EQ2 is not 
that impressive. AC2 has beautiful visuals. Combat was boring. I guess I'd 
have to see the retail to really be sure, but what I saw of the beta was 
enough to keep me in AC2, even if the few remaining worlds are mostly empty.
