On Tuesday, it was reported that ex-NCsoft employees were found guilty of leaking Lineage 3 information and coding to a rival and were sentenced to jail time. It was reported generally by media outlets as a win for NCsoft and implied by some that Bluehole Studio, the makers of TERA, were guilty because of the verdict.

On april 18 Bluehole Studio’s fought back stating they are “NOT guilty“, calling NCsoft a “corporate bully“.

NCsoft is a billion-plus dollar corporation, so they can afford to have a team of high-priced lawyers spin out reasonable-sounding documents. These baseless accusations have led to unfounded rumors, which is disappointing and unfair. But that doesn’t mean the rumors are true.

It is no surprise that the latest spin on the story has it that “TERA is guilty.” That is wr

This weekend I was firmly happy with the latest Silent Hill Downpour that came in late March  for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. I was so looking forward to this game and the beginning had a good start.

You are Murphy Pendleton, the main character, and you're in prison. A guard leads you to the showers and tells you where you can find the weapon. First you turn all the showers on so that steam is released. The steam will block the cameras * wink wink *. You walk to the bench, grab the weapon and wait for the other prisoner.

Then there follows a charming scene in which you

Iruna Online is an online RPG from developer Asobimo. The game was quite a while on Google Play, but it was unplayable for people who didn't speak Japanese. The game is terms of graphics, much like the Final Fantasy III and IV remakes on the NintendoDS.

In Iruna Online you can actually do everything you would normally do in a MMORPG on your PC. You can chat, go on adventures together, exchange items and invite each other for a fight.

Best of all, it doesn't costs you anything, because the game is free to download from Google Play.

The snow this year was fun to watch, but cycling trough -14 degrees is a completely different story. I quickly became stressed and slept badly. That night was not to sleep, but I was too tired to do something useful. What I sometimes do at such moments is getting out of bed and sitting in front of my 2 cabinets of games.

I love to look at the beautifully drawn artwork on the boxes. Sometimes I pick a game and I open it just to see the inside view. When I really can't sleep, I leaf through the booklet and I smell it on. I'm always happy when I smell the newness of the book. It is at these moments that I'm always a little hesitant when I think about the digitization of video games. Unintentionally, there was a kind of anxiety in me when I realized that the survival horror game '
