The Jin character has been introduced since last week, and he possesses special attributes for fighting and attacking, these ones helping him in the chase to look for Luther, the leader of the Silver Knights. He also has some other special skills that make his moves to appear more improved and agile.

The new patch released in Pangya includes special items and the limited time “Pang Ramyon” that can be acquired using Chrono Points; the 25 points are earned for every 10 minutes of playing. Next to these releases, Season 4 content will follow, incorporating Self-Design feature that enables the players to customize characters’ outfits.

“Grand Chase” is an online action fighter that is set in an atmosphere of a medieval fantasy world. Young knights join a group of nobles known as “Grand Chase” in the purpose of defeating an evil usurper (known as Kaze’aze) to the throne. The originality lies in that that “Grand Chase is the world’s first real time online fighting game” and allows up to 6 players to get involved in thrilling fights with each fighter. It has also great quality effects and the use of different options for attack strategies, for character formations make the game more exciting and delightful.

“Pangya” is a golf game that provides a golf play experience in an easy to pick-up-and-play manner. The difficult rules of golf are rendered in a simpler handling of the game thus improving skills at any level to occur. The game has simple and intuitive controls features that enable anyone to easily play with other gamers, features that can not be found in other golf games. The game offers 14 locations where players can choose one of the 8 available characters. There is also present the ability for customizing offering an experience of the sort in thousands of combinations for costumes, accessories, golf clubs, equipment, and so on. The thing is that there isn’t an opponent in this golf game; you are your own enemy. The other players act rather as your partners than your enemies, since the most important thing is that you have to take control on your own emotions and focus better to become the real winner.

The beauty of these two servers is that they offer the opportunity to engage more players for Grand Chase and Pangya online; in this way a game becomes more challenging, therefore more exciting!

With the new release on PS3-exclusive, Batman: Arkham Asylum, the character known as Joker is rated to be one of the most challenging characters of the late games issued. Is also the game itself that becomes more exciting with every time you see it! The rocksteady Studios developers said that there are at least a couple of other major characters yet to be announced. Joker, the character that has been revealed, has eight challenge-room levels to load. Guy Cocker, from GameSpot UK, had the chance to pass through these levels playing the Clown Prince of Crime character, a different proposal to the Dark Knight himself.

Joker is a different type of character compared to Batman, he doesn’t have a body armor, nor any arsenal of gadgets, but he lacks in strength and tech, by making up for with anarchic destruction. He is able to remote-control and detonate dynamite, he moves around with stealthy kills, or sprays toxic gas in the enemies’ face. The Invisible Predator mode displays as a completely different experience when performed as Batman or the Joker. This mode consists of a set of unlockable levels that can be opened up by gathering items in the main game with the purpose to take out all the enemies. In order to hide from his enemies, Joker has to pass through interconnected vents and drains and might as well get shot, being so armorlessed.

But his “nakedness” is compensated by the X-ray vision that enables him to see through walls, and he is provided, finally, with a one-bullet gun that blows everything off. It follows a series of challenges, with risky situations, but not so hard to beat, since the chattering teeth are at handy to take out unwanted characters. The time for these fights can be easily improved with every new trial, so in time, the score boards will display on line some good times of the players.

The Game Spot UK’s reporter also asked about the exclusivity of the game on PS3: would it be Sony to take its rights on the market or Xbox 360 through a downloadable content? But the answer came back bluntly: “All we have announced so far is that it is exclusive to PS3”. The reporter was very impressed with his first play of the new Invisible Predator rooms, and Rochsteady Studio has really strived to deliver what they have promised: to create Batman and the Joker as two distinctive characters.

The level that Guy Cocker played was the easiest of the existing levels, but there will be a ramp up of the later rooms adding more difficulty coming from more enemies and fewer hiding spots. The reporter’s conclusion was, that even if Batman and Joker “equipped” differently in: Arkham Asylum Invisible Predator gives a faster access to the aimed points, the Studio still have some other aces in the sleeve to reveal to the gamers.

Atlus, the company that brings Trauma Center games to you, is taking a step into Massively Multiplayer Online business releasing Atlus Online and Neo Steam: Shattered Continent.

The world is populated by two kinds of humans (male and female that are split into two races), elves, big furry creatures (one canine, one feline), some lovely guys called Poms, and the cat girls. The players are separated into two groups, the Republic of Rogwel (the read team) and the Elerd Kingdom (the ones in blue). The people of Rogwel are scientists, while the ones of Elerd’s are magicians. The game has a four core classes, Warrior, Scout, Mystic and Machinist that divide into other subclasses of each faction. The player need to pick up the color of the group, but it seems that red is the winning color, since researches on cyberpsuchology claim that players playing on the red side have more chances to win, than the blue counterparts.

So, with the reds on your side you may set out to play. The Machinist class is most fit, since the Neo Steam is endowed with complex and useful crafting system, that may require the service of a Machinist that is the master craftsmen of the world. There is a world chat channel where you can scroll through, big exclamation points to spot the quests that need to be completed out there in the field; movement and combat are easy simple enough with the right-click to interact or attack and the left-click to move anywhere on the ground. The point is that the player needs to complete a set of quests to move to a higher level where guns are delivered to him. Provided with guns enemies can be put down and the initial role turns into a more exciting and challenging one.

The game has both positive points (useful NPCs, customizable Pets, peddle your wares while pedaling away) and negative ones (lots of grinding, OfGame Mechanics Obscura, not so many quests, interface issues) but altogether it is a fun game to play.

The game has an interesting appeal: one can play for free, but since nothing in these games comes for free, there is a business interest here. If one has money to spend, he can sign up for a Neo Steam Monthly Premium Packages (“levels”, Bronze, Silver and Gold) and the Premium Item Shop. Bronze players have a 15% EXP bonus, Silver ones have 30% boost, while Gold players can take further levels due to a 45% boost. There are also training points bonuses, penalties, and money moves according to how much you decide to shell out every month.

So the player, compared to other games’ players, is given the Neo Steam, Shattered Continent’s option: pay to win maximum satisfaction.
