"The fact that Blue Mars, the MMO from Avatar Reality on display at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, uses the impressive CryENGINE 2 featured in the astoundingly pretty Crysis, could lead you to assume the new game will be of the traditional MMORPG variety, spruced with perhaps a focus on conflict and a smattering of sci-fi pomp. In fact, from what we’ve gathered on the game at GDC, the title is closer to Second Life than it is to say… Tabula Rasa."
