Auto Assault is, if nothing else, a sign that the Massive Multiplayer Roleplaying genre is expanding beyond its sword and sorcery roots. We’ve seen superheroes, and the occasional sci-fi, but with Auto Assault we see a direct homage to Mad Max—a post-apocalyptic world in which you drive a fast, armored car and fire shotguns at punks. The car idea may sound a little odd, but at its roots it’s really just a different graphic for the same, albeit far faster, game character you’ve played anywhere else. The game as a whole is underwhelming, but surprisingly fun and worth a look for any MMORPG fan who loves the post-apocalypse genre.
