So, I was browsing around and found some extra features. They look spectacular, as well as a better gameplay video!

On the currentl online game market, there is a load of outstanding FPS games. In order to stand out from the competition, the developers of Operation 7 created a weapon assemble system which enables players to assemble and modify weapons. Players can replace barrel, butt, bolt and other components freely. And each component can use protective coloring. Each gun will vary in range and accuracy depending on the material is used. In addition, players' body movements while shooting, such as dashing or holding breath, will also influence destruction and accuracy.

Brand new browser-based game: Crime Factory,

Tarmo — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 22:01:48 +0800

Hey everyone! I have just finished a new game. It's browser-based and probably worth a few minutes of your time since I've spent the past few years designing, programming, and updating it. I like to think that it is original but, as we all know, there's none of that under the sun.

Short description of the game:
Crime Factory is a browser-based role-playing game. You take control of a player and earn money in various legal and illegal ways while gaining fame and developing your skills.

Game address: http://playcrime.net?a=20

Please try it out and let me know, what you think about it.

[Feedback/Review]Dance Online = OMFG !,

holypredator — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 23:19:33 +0800

I felt kinda board lately and decided to find some FREE online games to play. I decided to play dance online for no particular reason tough.... so anyways, here's my review/feedback of the game.......

First off the download speed for the game is decent [night dl @10kb+, morning/afternoon @ 70-100kb+] and the file was 1.1GB. The horror starts right after the download is complete.

The part that pissed me off most is during the "preparing to install" part .... i waited almost 10-20 min on that, wondering if the game might even work.
When a new screen finaly came out, i was like "FINALY something happened" at least i knew its still working. The installation bar finaly came out but it wasnt moving, so i got pissed off again and start wondering if it would work again =.=""

Eventualy it moved, and finaly the game is installed. It took almost an hour [Time begin installing 9.28, Time finish installing 10.20] ...
During installation, I cant do anything else as it took up too much physical memory and it lags when you try to do something else. So basicly, it means that u cant serve the net or play any other game during installation.

I tough that i could finaly play the game but no..... More waiting is needed...... And i was shocked to see that i have to dl another 182MB of update X.X..... a total of 1092 of update files......

This game is F*CKing CRAZY!!!! Its so slow that it made snails looks as if they were moving in a faster speed.

Well, I dint actualy get to play the game yet due all the waiting, so i cant post up any review about the gameplay yet. I hope there isnt any error pop up later... or somebody gonna get a hurt real bad ....

I hope the game wont lag and also hope that it is nice to play. Anyone played this game, please feel free to give some comment about the game play... Thx

NCsoft Already Working On Lineage 3, can post here ? tis lineage 3 ???

aquadanny — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 23:46:02 +0800

Lineage 3? Not yet!
March 28, 2008
Interview with NCsoft’s new President, Chris Chung.

“During our talk I was able to get the scoop on the NCSoft game line up: how the last year went, and what’s planned for the future!”

Lineage… III?!

No, not yet – but soon! Chung told me that NCSoft’s main concern was assembling the right team to tackle this project. Said Chung, “This is the year that we are assembling that team.” On the Lineage II front, the recently release Kamael expansion has done very well, bringing many players back to L2 to try out the new race.

Source: MMORPG.com

Hmm, I found something interesting too,

“NCsoft Announces Unreal Engine 3 License for Two Upcoming Projects”

Read more about this entry HERE!

- I’m not sure that some of this “upcoming projects” might be L3, Because as “Kim” said in his last interview… “they will NOT be using the Unreal 3 Engine, but creating their own.”!
btw, i’m pretty sure that NCsoft will make a good work!

Thanks for reading.

refer : http://lineage3.wordpress.com/

Curiously enough, NCsoft's E3 2006 line-up that was announced a few days ago made no refference whatsoever to their popular Lineage MMO series. However, just because they won't be showing any more scantily clothed dark-elf booth babes, it doesn't mean that a sequel isn't already being worked on. According to WarCry (who in turn are quoting KoreaGames.com's newsletter), Lineage 3 is in fact being developed by NCsoft's Korean studio and will be fully revealed in the first part of 2007. Which might explain why they wouldn't want to spoil the surprise next month in Los Angeles...
And let's not forget that back in 2005, NCsoft acquired the Unreal Engine 3 license, while the company's president was already hinting the Lineage 3 project. Whether or not the game will be using Epic's graphics engine, though, is yet to be seen.

Lineage 3
Website: TBD
Developer: NCSOFT
'Lineage 3', expected to spearhead the boom of MMORPGs on the heels of 'Lineage' and 'Lineage 2', is now under development at the NCsoft Studio in Korea. No more details have been publicized yet except for the fact that the game will be an extension of the same episode shared by other 'Lineage' series games. 'Lineage 3' will be unveiled with much pomp and circumstance in the first half of 2007.

Best Korean MMO ?, my website with crap content need help

magdalene2008 — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 17:20:06 +0800

Dear Mod, I posted in wrong section just now.. So sorry...

Hello, I'm very new in here.

I was looking for a specific thread about general online gaming, but I guess this is the right one hmm.gif

I have a set up a website for the first time and having trouble getting contents. You see, I want to get hard to find Korean MMO wallpapers (anyone into Mabinogi? ^^ ), but the thing is I have no idea what Korean MMO games I should feature in my website. Normally I'd play English games such as Silkroad (meh..still level 60+) and Cabal..so my knowledge in Korean MMO is not really that good.

Your suggestion of popular Korean MMOs is VERY much appreciated.

p.s: I already have Mabinogi, Huxley and SUN.

GGPO.Net - lag-free KOF/Street Fighter., GGPO.Net - lag-free KOF/Street Fighter.

kileak — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 15:41:02 +0800

Hi all,

I come from an era where versus gaming involves stuffing in 20 cent coins into dodgy looking machines, while you sit next to equally dodgy-looking guys who probably will spit in your face if you play cheap tactics, or kick your leg so that you'd miss the joystick motion for your uber combo.

No online stuff, all physical.

Still, I really miss the arcades.

Until I came across ggpo.net.

What the hell is ggpo.net?

Well, if, you, like me, miss playing the Street Fighter/KOF/Marvel series with random strangers, and not just picking on your younger brother, then you'd definitely want to check it out.

It's a great application that allows you to play arcade games online, almost lag-free. Seriously.

Previously there was something called Kaillera, but that had some issues; this one is a lot better than that, thanks to some fancy algorithms that they actually put in to the code.

Anyhow, do try it out. I even went out to buy a USB joystick just so I could play competitively online now. Trust me, there are some serious competition online, but still I would encourage you to just give it a try anyway.

Ah, good old times, lots of fun, without the smoky environment and sticky joysticks

Hope to see some of you there. GG,PO (Good Game, Peace Out) y'all.
