Critical Hits Podcast #10: Entropia Universe
Before GenCon 2008, we were contacted to check out the Entropia Universe booth during the show. There, we met with John Bates of Mindark, who explained to us all about Entropia Universe, the online game/virtual world. Bartoneus and I went into the interview knowing almost nothing about it, but we both agreed afterward that it’s really interesting, and we were surprised that we hadn’t heard about it before. Take a listen, and maybe you’ll come away with the same impression.
We were given two sample cards and disks to get started on Entropia Universe. Bartoneus expressed interest in checking it out (so he should be able to give his review then), and we’ll probably give away the other set in a future contest. If you do decide to check it out on your own, John recommended the Entropia Forums as a first destination.

I played EU for a while a couple years back when it was first became Entropia Universe. I enjoyed it then and I may try again. Thanks for the new info, I had completely forgotten about it.
Bored Gamer: I am very interested in trying out Entropia Universe, so we’ll have to get together and play.
