<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>FALLEN EARTH, LLC announced today its self-titled massively multiplayer online (MMO) game will be available for pre-order and purchase through Steam&reg;, a digital delivery and management platform for the PC, beginning immediately at <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/40000 ... >.</em></p>
<p>And for those of us who haven't heard about the game in a while, here's a bit of a refresher from <em>Fallen Earth's</em> wikipedia page:</p>
<p><em>The </em><em>Fallen Earth story begins in the 21st Century, when the first in a series of natural disasters hits the United States. As Americans struggle to recover, an investment tycoon named Brenhauer buys a controlling stake in a mega-corporation named GlobalTech. By 2051, he moves his headquarters to the Grand Canyon Province, where GlobalTech eventually creates a self-sufficient economic and military mini-state. Meanwhile, in India and Pakistan, the Shiva virus, named for the dance-like convulsions that it caused in its victims, appears among the human populace. As the infection starts to spread, countries accuse each other of engineering the virus. Political paranoia turn to open aggression and nuclear conflict. The nuclear conflict combined with the virus decimates the planet. Less than one percent of Earth's population survived the Fall, and the Hoover Dam Garrison and Grand Canyon Province are the only known outposts of human civilization.</em></p>
<p><em>Outside the protective confines of the Hoover Dam Garrison, the player will encounter ruins of the old world, genetically-altered creatures, strange technology, and six warring </em><em>factions. Some factions seek to rebuild the old world, others wish to build a new one in their own image, and some simply desire chaos and anarchy.</em></p>
<p><em>Among its features are first-person and third-person views, classless system, Player-versus-Player combat, and crafting.</em></p>

The teaser trailer looked 'ok', but revealed nothing about the game itself. I've also heard nothing good about the game itself from the beta, so I expect another MMORPG dead within 12 months.

A friend of mine played the beta via Fileplanet subscription. Said it sucked something fierce.

I wouldn't mind giving this bad boy a go, how to give it a go without buying it? Like a 10 day trial would be :salsa:

He has a premium fileplanet subscription, one of the kind you pay for. It gives exclusive closed beta or demo play testing every once in while.
