    Glitch - A great new free browser based MMO

    Picked this up and played it for two day. It contains all the really FUN elements of classic MMOS but without the bloody combat.

    It has a skill system similar to EVE, where your skills increase based on even out of game time allocated to it.

    Wonderful game, my whole family enjoyed it until I tallied up the bandwidth usage and promptly put a stop to 3 unhappy people's Glitch addiction (including me).

    At, on average, 50-60 meg an hour it was going to literally bankrupt us. I should have known, it is a browser based game. I was hoping that the use of HTML 5 in the code would help, it didn't.

    Anyways, I can recommend it to all who are lucky to live in the land of milk, honies and fraudband. Great game.

    Interesting , i see they say it's actually using Flash (not HTML5), and having an iPad these days, i am hoping for games that doesn't use any flash . I'll have to look further for a good browser MMO that works on the ipad.

    Damn! I thought it was not FLash, no wonder the bandwidth is so high.
