Pandora's Tower Review
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but swords and chains excite me. Should you climb the towers in Xseed's JRPG/adventure hybrid to save your cursed (and tragically whiny) girlfriend?

What do these ratings mean?

Possibly the best MMO out there, I say that because I have not yet found an MMO to pwn it. (Sorry WoW, you just didn't appeal"  The main reasons this game is the MMO to own MMO's (so far) is the level of customizability! Now now, if you are one of those that says, "But customizabilty is just a flashy gimmick, what about gameplay?" Well the gameplay is just as fun as the making of your character with the addition of these great features: travel powers(flying, super speed, super jump, teleportation....), destroyable environments(for the most part), ragdoll physics(I don't know it's just fun to watch a super punch send a baddy flying a mile away),O duh the powers(from super strength to telekinesis) Even the story of the game(yah there's a story.... READ DAMNIT!). All this makes the game fun....... but mostly the customization. XP

PS  protector server pwns all others!
