- Show Best game of the year 2009
Every year, one game stands out among the rest, and while it would be easy to crown a winner based on subscriber numbers alone, we all know that a high subscriber count does not necessarily the best game make.
So instead, we decided to open the category up and instead look at multiple factors: design quality, fun, popularity, continued progress and more.
One game, however, stood out among the rest as the 2009 Game of the Year. The nominees were:
Aion
EVE Online
Lord of the Rings Online
World of Warcraft
Wizard 101
The Winner: EVE Online Runner up: World of Warcraft
Coming up with a Game of the Year winner this time around was a difficult task. In the end, it came down to factors like: game growth, originality, overall contributions to the industry, fun factor, population and technological advancement and more. After much deliberation, the editorial staff at MMORPG.com has decided to hand this honor to veteran Sci-Fi MMORPG, EVE Online.
While some may question giving the GotY award to a game that originally launched in 2003, 2009 was actually a banner year for not just the game, which saw significant changes and growth through two major expansions, Apocrypha in March and Dominion in December. These two expansions significantly changed the face of the game, bringing it more in line with what players expect from a modern MMO. Between the two, the game added: Wormholes, ship customization (tier 3), Epic Mission arcs, a new New Player experience, social networking, planetary upgrades, changes to the game's sovereignty systems and more.
2009 was also a year of rebirth for CCP's first MMO, seeing a partnership with publisher Atari for a re-release of the game in boxes on store shelves (it had previously been available only through download), which has led the game to not only reach new heights in terms of subscriber numbers (currently over 300,000 active subscribers), but in terms of peak concurrent user records broken as more and more players crowd onto the game's single server.
When you add all of this to the fact that CCP also announced plans to expand EVE Online's virtual universe beyond EVE and the PC in the form of MMO console shooter DUST 514, it isn't difficult to see how EVE Online stood above the crowd as our Game of the Year.
Runner Up: World of Warcraft
It just wouldn't be a year in the MMO industry if you didn't at least have to consider Blizzard's World of Warcraft in the Game of the Year category. After all, it is still the industry leader when it comes to subscriptions. Still, as we've said numerous times, subscriptions aren't everything. With that in mind, there were a few reasons that WoW ranked as our number two MMO for 2009 including but not limited to numerous patches to Wrath of the Lich King, good lead up into next year's Cataclysm and what many WoW players describe as a revolutionary new Dungeon Finder system.

Kata Pengantar
Well, gw coba perkenalkan EVE online pake kata2 gw sendiri yang berdasarkan pengalaman gw sendiri. Pastinya ini the best game online yg pernah gw maenin. Suka perang galaxy dengan berbagai macam space ship? Perang dengan ratusan bahkan ribuan user at one time? Bayangin men, EVE cuma ada 1 server untuk seluruh dunia, kurang lebih 300 ribu account aktif (subscription), rata2 online 35rb player at one time, peak nya bisa sampe 50rb lebih at one time, WOW!
Ini game P2P alias berbayar, which cost $14.95/mo. Tapi jangan berkecil hati dulu. Di dalam game ada item namanya PLEX(Pilot License Extensions), item yang berfungsi memperpanjang masa account 30 hari, dan kita membelinya pake ISK (in-game money). Dan itu LEGAL http://support.eveonline.com/Pages/K...le.aspx?id=495. Mungkin 1-2 bulan kita bayar krn skill kita belum efektif cari duit, buat selanjutnya ga ada masalah tuh ngejer plex, asal rajin cari duit. Ada temen gw yg cuma 1 bulan bayar, abis itu dia mampu beli plex bahkan untuk 2 account sekaligus ampe skrg, lol :D
Ini game tipe nya SANDBOX, yang atinya player sendiri yg mengatur irama keseluruhan permainan. 95% item, weapon, ship, or anything itu buatan player sendiri. NPC cuma kasih misi doank. Jadi perekonomian digerakkan oleh player sendiri. Dan kita bisa jadi apa, terserah, trader, mission runner, pirate (tukang rampok :D), miner, hauler, mercenary (pasukan bayaran utk serang player lain), dll, sebebas-bebasnya.
Gameplay nya game ini ga pake level character, yang ada belajar skill. Skill berjalan sesuai dengan real time, jadi kita beli book skill lalu pelajari skill sesuai real time, misal butuh 1 jam. Semakin advance skill nya, maka semakin lama waktunya. Duration learning skill akan terus jalan meski kita offline. So ga ada yang namanya grinding level yang bagi kerja kantoran merupakan masalah tersendiri :D
Space universe yang ada di EVE luasssssss banget!!!! Ada kira2 ribuan sistem tata surya, dan puluhan ribu planet dan asteroid yang bisa kita jelajahi. Ga kebayang kan??? :D Hal ini yang menyebabkan tidak adanya Private Server karena butuh nya sumber daya yg ga murah untuk meng-host game EVE. Player2 EVE bermacam2, pengacara, dokter, profesional, karyawan, mahasiswa, student, dll, dan worldwide (USA, eropa, asia, afrika, australia).
Masih banyak yang bisa gw perkenalkan disini, yang bisa dilihat di FAQ eve online di bawah. ENjoy!
