WarCry (website)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Warcry is a fan-based web site network centered around MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Role Playing Game) games and other similar interests. It boasts a large community of professional web sites and databases for MMORPGs.
[edit] History
Originally a developer and publisher of online games, in 2001 WarCry acquired the assets of Crossroads Gaming Network 1(sometimes shortened to XRGaming) in an undisclosed private transaction. The merged company took the WarCry name as WarCry Corp., but dropped the online gaming angle to concentrate on more coverage of games, particularly massively multiplayer which had been XRGaming's stock in trade. Whilst popular, XRGaming had been suffering in the midst of the Dot.com bust and WarCry's funding enabled both to survive.
[edit] Coverage
The WarCry network now covers games, movies, anime, comics and other parts of the entertainment industry, supplied by a network of contributors and user-submitted content.
Competitors include TenTonHammer.com, IGN's Vault Network, Stratics and the Coldfront Gaming Network amongst others.
