So, technically it isn't an "MMO" still, this seemed like the place to put it.

Games workshop has released a video copy of blood bowl that plays verbatim like it's real life counterpart.

It retails for $40.00 for the digital copy, which I've had no problems with whatsoever, a nd refers to the current 5th edition Blood bowl rulebook, verbatim, as it's rulebook.

It quite literally IS playing blood bowl on your pc over a net connection.

Youc an either direct connect oldstyle to play head to head, play over a LAN or in hotseat mode, or play Leages (complete with tracking) free online!

At $40 for 8 teams, in the comfort of your own home, I think it's the best way to play Blood Bowl, ever.

I had been waiting for the US Xbox 360 release forever, until I saw the PC release was coming first, and then the PC release was already available digitally.

If anyone picks up a copy and wants a match, hit me up.

$40.00 a copy... vs free?

No thanks.

There's a free online Bloodbowl site out there somewhere, last I heard...

How's this look?

Admittedly, I probably would have done this for a bit before picking up the PC game, however I do think theres a pretty significant difference between a PC/Console game (with rendered animations, announcers) and a free java platform.

I'll give this a look, but I've been happy enough with the PC game I'm probably going to pick up an addition copy for the 360 when it price drops to $20, just to see the animations upconverted into 1080P.

I've only ever really been a passive spectator to Fumbbl, but the dude that showed it to me (FFTimberwolf, many of you know him from a couple of chats), loves it. I generally trust his opinion where gaming is concerned...
