Eve Incarna is scheduled for this summer and has a very good trailer, getting almost 10/10 in most trailers. For those who don't know:

EVE is a Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMORPG) that takes place approximately 20.000 years after our times in a galaxy on the far end of the universe. When you join EVE you assume the role of a freshly graduated „Capsuleer“, a relatively small group of elite spaceship pilots capable of controlling powerful spaceships on their own from within their capsules. Capsuleers are often referred to as "The immortals" due to the fact that the highly advanced capsules they are connected to from the inside, are capable of instantly dowloading their consciousness to a clone of themselves in the case of physical destruction

When playing eve you basically control only a spaceship and travel through the universe, fighting enemies and purchasing upgrades. This has brought many complaints, as you can only control a spaceship and can hardly relate to your character at all. The Incarna expansion is introducing the avatar notion, you will finally have a customizable humanoid avatar that can walk out from the ships and can walk on the space stations!

Here's a regular Eve Online video just to show you the concept:

Been keeping an eye on the progress of Incarna and I have to say it's shaping up to be a very cool experience. To finally be able to walk around your captains quarters and even eventually take part in planetside warfare and trade (down the line).

Yep, I gotta say one thing that used to make me get tired of EVE online very fast was the fact that you had no human avatar so you felt like a spaceship. I'm really considering starting to play it again, I'm just afraid I might not be able to focus back in my studies anymore :P
