This is cool news, Uo was the best game in history beacuse fo the freedom of that game. Trapping boxed and blowing people up, trapping peoples ghosts using furnature you hand crafted and watching them spam o0o0o o0o o0oo 0o was good fun.
I still have the design docs for Uo2 at my place. I was working at EA when it was canceled. I spoke with the President at a meeting shortly after and they didnt like the way the game was turning out with the mcfarlane models and the techno feel of blackthorn etc. Actually the main reason he said they canceled was that UO was still making money and they didnt want to compete with themselfs. Made sense but boy was it a mistake. EA lost out on the mmorpg market for the past 5 years because of that.
