Rinko says: AION, the only game that came close to my vision of an ideal mmorpg, but who knows maybe Blade and Soul might take the Throne, man NCsoft really excelled this time i wonder when will PH gamers get to experience quality mmorpgs like AION and "Blade & Soul"? for now we have to contend with these average mmorpgs
