MMORPG.com Staff Writer Carolyn Koh recently attended the Sony Online Entertainment Fan Faire in Las Vegas, Nevada. Today, she files this report from a panel held so that players and developers could talk about The Matrix Online.
Attendance at this panel was modest, a total of 12, rising to 15 as a few drifted in after the panel started.
