  I was in open Beta. You can play kind of Samurai init. No bad game. Graphics are a bit dated but it's worth a look.
  Connection to Malaysia is horrible tho. (From europe at least)

  Actually, there is a "Samurai" type MMORPG called Nobunaga's Ambition Online by Koei.  It's even available for the PS2 and PC in Japan.  Unfortunately, I can't read Japanese, I'm very interested to know its current status and plans for an English version.

  Here are some detailed but outdated info:

  Here's the game's main web site:

  If anyone can read Japanese and can translate some info from the web site, I'd greatly appreciate it.

  If anyone has any more links and the latest news about an English version, that would be excellent also.

  I haven't seen a sole samurai mmorpg, but i really would like to.  I know that the rouge class in WOW will have matrial arts skills, and thats about as close as it gets.  If they ever were to make a samurai mmorpg i would hope that it would be like "The Way of the Samurai" which is a really sweet game for playstation 2.  Has all the right qualities to become a good samurai mmorpg game.
