So Neverwinter is DCUO and TERA wrapped into one with a Cryptic touch....? I might like it.

Ok so basically there wasn't much worth seeing at PAX, because those all seem really lame choices to me.

Pardon me while I laugh at the concept that Cryptic could make a decent game.

I thought City of Heroes was widely praised, in its time. It wasn't for me, but I thought Cryptic's current reputation arose from the partnership with Atari. Atari's been in a bad way for a long time, so I thought that was unsurprising.

The move to Perfect World, although suggestive of business models I don't care for, could very well provide them the freedom and funding they haven't had since CoH.

How can World of Warplanes get an award? It's not even out yet.

 

None of these games are out yet; that's kind of the point ;)

Who picks these?  Firefall and Tera for most anticipated?....and Raiderz for rising Star?  I've played Tera and Raiderz and....they are just more of the same and will come and go this year and be forgotten.  Firefall vids make it look dull and boring to me.  I guess if that's the only ones you had to choose from...then I have to say, minus the Neverwinter stuff and the developers Panel, PAX east kind of sucked this year.  

 

Oh come on ,this kind of rewards ARE just simply marketing.  It would be nice if people stop giving it any attention.

As fellow gaming press covering the convention I have to say these picks are spot on. I'm more anticipating TERA than Firefall but out of what was on presentation at PAX East, these titles easily deserve the spots given to them.

I played CoH for years and it got waaay better once cryptic sold it and moved on, so IMO no they're still 0 for 3( ?) in the mmo world.

I got a good laugh when I saw GW2 did not even make the list. I figured it was more hype then what it truely is. This list from people who actully played it and did not like it shows that. Yeah TSW got second place on the Top MMO list. Nice now I truelly can not wait for the game. :)

Neverwinter is looking interesting -- I don't expect the Foundry to be as expansive as the Aurora Toolset, but if it allows some level of scripting events, that will be awesome.

I remember working with the Aurora tool set :) I'm really hoping to write some awesome adventures for people in Neverwinter.  Still thinking this will be the year's sleeper hit.

Fortunately for TSW, GW2 did not have a booth at Pax East this year, otherwise TSW would have come in third.

ArcheAge would have got ´em all ^^

people always ask why GuildWars 2 did not make it, The main reason is their competitor which is Tera Online - this game got the most awards from E3 and Korea. Guys you should try playing it to see the difference:)

It's cause Gw2 wasn't there, read the posts

rising star raiderz! LOL! i gave that game a chance. 

It was only that, a chance, then i had to uninstalled it because of an incompatibility with Tera.
