Here's something from that: Earth & Beyond, brought to us from Westwood Studios, claims to be the first persistent universe to be featured in a MMP game, and it may well be just that. Even Star Wars: Galaxies presents itself less as a universe full of mysteries to explore than as a familiar world waiting to be re-discovered (though if you’re interested in this sort of thing, it should be pointed out that EVE from Simon and Schuster is also breaking this same ground). Earth & Beyond places you in your ship, the locations dealt with in first-person dwarfed by the shear quantity of those seen through the cockpit, and lets you find, explore, and chart an environment full of black holes, nebulas, and ship-devouring space phenomena. The results are magnificent. The planets, not just items to fly by, can be visited, mined, and sometimes walked on. Your ships, designed by the same man responsible for those flying around the two most recent Star Wars releases and Terminator 2, can be customized to an astonishing amount of individualism. Combine that sort of talent with the sort already brewing in the heart of Westwood, makers of Command and Conquer, and what you end up with is an MMP unlike any currently on the market.
