EvE Online is a pretty popular and growing MMORPG Game that has been around since early 2002; I’m an avid gamer and I’m specially keen on online games- I got around playing this particular game last summer of 2010 and boy it pretty much changed the way how I look at other online games. It is a massive sci-fi online world in which you can do just about everything; to other gamers this universe will literally change your definition of an open sandbox world, in which cases can grant anyone the freedom to do anything.

So, I’ve pretty much reaped from the fun of my labors in EvE Online (And still going!) and I’d love to introduce any curious gamers into joining this game. Recently they are promoting heavily on “buddy invites†in which cases an invite can grant a newbie player 21 days of free play instead of a trial of only 2 weeks- after the twenty one days it’s up to you to decide whether this game is a hit or a miss within your criteria!
EvE-Online comes from the independent gaming company CCP; the company in general is full of promises; check out their you tube site! (Link)

In the world of New Eden (that’s what they call the current Universe of EvE Online) things are all run by players, it’s a widely unique game in which everything and I mean everything came from a player i.e one making a single ‘space-ship’ and selling ‘em to the market to be bought- that single type of ship whether combat or industry can have an impact whether it be used to smuggle supplies or to pirate. Such as player ran organizations like Guilds in WoW, there are Corporations, a Corporation is totally dependant to the people running it, I run one and my crew and I would be willing to help to provide you the necessities and knowledge that rookie pilots would help to know.
The community is widely diverse. From a heavy Euro population to an also very popular U.S multiplicity you can be sure there will be communities within that you can relate with.
Lastly I’d like to show you a pretty inspirational video that’s set pretty true (Also fan-made) Great for aspiring rookies like myself being one still Lol. (Link)

Last but not the least a simple and key thing that just got me hooked into playing ‘internet spaceships’ is that when I first heard of a simple soundtrack piece from the game by ‘being bored’ and just looking for something to listen to (Link)
