Top Free to Play MMORPG Sites
I wanted to delve into a topic today that is not touched on much. The top free to play
MMORPG Sites. We all want to talk about the top free to play MMOs and why this one is
better than that one, and why MMO A kicks MMO B's ***, but we never talk about the sites
that actually give us the fodder for these arguments. So here it is, the top free to
play MMORPG Sites by me, The Top 10 Gamer.
5. MMO Huts. MMO Huts, or formerly MMO Hut which most likely changed due to bulk backlink
buying! Just kidding, I have no idea why they changed. MMO Huts has a great list of giveaways
and a huge list of MMORPG Games. As soon as a game is announced, they will have a page
for it. They have OK video content, not the best, not the worst, and they have a decent
community with ONRPG, so the forums are a hit. Decent MMORPG Editorials and previews
and a sister pinterest type site add to its charm. Cons, the main page looks like one
large advertisement wall, you have to hunt for any of their content.
4. MMO Bomb. MMO Bomb is another site that inundates you with ads, but hey, it's a business.
They are one of the least updated sites on this list, with posts coming typically every
other day. They have great video content with their First Looks, podcast and weekly MMORPG
News, but nothing beyond that. They do have an extensive list of Free to Play Games, which
makes it one of the better sites to do some research on your next game and they have a
decent amount of giveaways going on at any one time. The community is there, but careful
of posting anything spam related or you'll get banned! Lame. Cons, most of their top
10 lists are super old, and the site has looked the same forever.
3. MMO Attack. This one is probably one of the least known, but it's hard to understand
why. They have daily MMO news posted on the site, and follow it up with a daily video.
They have a few other MMO shows with a slew of hosts that really put a face to the otherwise
bland world of 'admin' posts on many other sites in the genre. Of all the sites on this
list, they are the best in terms of Video content, they have consistent giveaways going
on, and the site is easy to navigate. Cons, the community is lacking in most areas, and
their MMORPG list is a bit lower than most the other sites.
2. MMORPG.com. MMORPG.com has been around forever, and while that is great news in many
aspects, it also kind of shows on their website, it's got ALOT going on, and it can be confusing.
But let's look past that and pretend you know what you're looking for. They have it all.
In-depth reviews on all MMORPG games, a huge community on the forums, great blogs by both
their members and developers who willingly post on their site consistantly, and it's
one of the best places to go for ratings of games, as the huge community base really gives
a consistent showing by voting. Cons, the site is a mess to look at, which i mentioned
before.
1. Massively. While Massively is not technically only for Free to Play MMORPGs, they cover
ALL MMORPGs, so they definitely belong on this list. Why are they number one? Well,
a few reasons. They cover a ton of games, the page is clean and easy to navigate, they
don't just do news, but do reviews, and walkthroughs and have really in-depth coverage of most
of the top games in the genre. They have a large community, a host of live-streamers
and great writers. You'll find them at all the top events and why wouldn't you? They
are owned by Joystiq, which is owned by AOL Tech which is owned by AOL. So yeah, they've
got a lot of money. Cons, they have almost no video presence at all.
So there's my list. If you have any that you'd like to add, you can let me know in the comments
below. But other than that, be sure to like and subscribe to me, the top ten gamer, for
