With the release of MAIETS newest game several years ago Gunz Online has hit the gaming world with a storm. A huge fan base for a game that has never been advertised except from the mouth of the gamers who play this one of a kind game.

Think of a world were you can create your own hero, fight against monsters and even humans (other people from around the world). The game itself has a very good physics engine, granted its not that complex but you wont see any games like it, unless a big company catches on. Matrix fighting is the mainstead of the fighting in the game. Running along walls, doing flips dodging your enemies bullet and even there sword.

The game features many different play types, and alot of different levels for you to play, but generally people will only stick to a select few maps which everyone loves.
Now personally i've played this game for neary 2 years and i havent stopped. It's something i always go back to. If you check out my Xfire you will see ive clocked over 300 hours of play time thats how good it is.



There are hundreds of different weapons consisting from rockets to shotguns and ALOT more. But ironically " Gunz " is heavily based on sword play. Don't let the name fool you. Gunz sword play is fast, highly skilled and deadly.  The game has quite a few ways to learn in how to play eg: K-style, that originates from the games first release in korea, were it was invented by the Korean players. This is the most skilled style and takes the most practise. Then there is Euro Style, which originated from Europe and was invented here from from the International version of Gunz. These styles are the main ones, and within them there are 20- 30 different forms.



With the games release in 2002,  it has had its fair share of problems, hacking, bugs, and annoying fans. But majority of these problems have been fixed in the games. As their is several Gunz Versions for. International Version, Korean Version, Japanese Version, Indian Version and Phillipino Version. This is very good because it reduces lag in games and also keeps the player base generally in the same language.



Gunz has a few bad points, very badly managed, hacking is a terrible problem in International Gunz and the game has very bad bugs in some aspects and maps in the game. the game is 100% Free which makes the game abit better for obvious reasons. Not only that but the game play is fantastic.

So this game is a must DOWNLOAD if you want to  enjoy a free,  that has good gameplay and a friendly community.
