Danielle Vanderlip, a special guest writer at E3, files this report on the MMORPG/FPS in development over at Webzen. Eventually available for both the PC and XBOX360, Huxley is loosely based on works by the author of the same name.

I know I’m a bit late on this one but I’ve had to play a little catch up on a few things. This is one I didn’t want to pass up writing about however since I’ve been taking a look at it since I first learned of the game. I’m talking about Webzen’s MMOFPS Huxley, loosely based or at the least inspired by Aldous Huxley’s “Brave New World”. Don’t get confused though, this is not a “Brave New World” but just an inspiration. The storylines are not the same but it is a “Brand New World”.

Huxley touts itself as a cross-platform interactive game using the Unreal 3 graphics engine and will be available on both the PC and the XBox 360. Players from PC and from the XBox will be able to go toe to toe and maybe at last we’ll find out who are the better FPS players. Players on PC will be able to choose the side of the Sapiens or the Alternatives. On the XBox 360 players will be able to play as a part of the Human Liberation Organization (HLO) and fight against the Sapiens and Alternatives in order to “unshackle the oppressed Hybrids”

Good king, great king, and yet not greatly good.

I have high hopes for this one. I'm just glad I built my new PC last month so I can run anything this game throws my way.

Playing: SWTOR and Skyrim
Waiting for: GW2, TSW and ArcheAge

Can't jump through windows?? no alt firing?? grrrrr .Is the mapping any good or are they more along the lines of a 2d scroller ..very linear.Can you move freely throughout ?Asian games scare me,they tend to lean towards one aspect of a game and build on that one dimension.They like there fast flying weapon animations[takes less ani frames]and lean towards slow grinds and  virtual selling...scares the begeebers outa me :/

The mapping looked great especially since they are using the Unreal 3 engine.  Yeah, the no jumping through windows or shooting them out or alt firing bugged me a bit.  I'm told skills and weapons though will be plentiful.

I have this in my 'watching for' list because I think it could be great but I have some reservations only because what I saw was limited in nature and I'd like to see how it all looks complete before I start jumping up and down and stocking up on caffeine.

I'm really looking forward to this.

I've always been waiting for a MMOFPS, is there any others you guys could suggest?

I can't wait, especially if the levelling up/economy side is as good as some MMORPGS

and the FPS side is as good as something like battlefield 2. WOW
