NCSoft Portal Lineup Showcase!!

I don't know if you have heard that NC Soft, famous for Lineage series, is planning to open a game portal in Korea but they are and these are their line up.

EXTEEL

It was apparently shown at the E3 at their booth. This is a mech battle game similiar to Armored Core series. This game uses Unreal engine just like the Lineage 2 and claims it will run on computers that are capable of running Lineage 2.


Toy Strikers

This MMO Shooting game is targeted towards much younger audience compared to other games. Targeted at 8-15 years old kids, who are in Post Digital Era. The concept of using toys to battle has been emphasized to a great deal. Easy interface and teamwork are key factor to its gameplay.


Smash Star

A Online Tennis Game~!! However with a little twist, the game is based on Bed Time Tales-esque Fantasy background. It will also incorporate rounds using items, super attack, and obstacles. Simple controlling will truly show its desire to play for those casual players. It will even support 2:2!


Aximum Saga
Side Scroller like Maplestory.


Puzzle Pop

This game was designed to be visually appealing so that its characters and advertisement placement in video clips can be done. Maximum of 6 players can be played in Single Mode, and will support various modes such as cooperate mode and battle mode, etc.


Super Park JAM

The only game published by NC Soft and developed by an outside company. a snowboard online game that will probably become like SSX-like game.

Sweet! I have renewed faith in NCsoft over guild wars. So I can't wait to see some of this stuff make its way to the NA continent! (I guess this is why they've been pushing the PlayNC accounts so damn hard, huh?)

I dont exepect enything good from this company :/
I wish they could change a lot of things ^^

I don't expect big things to come out of them either, but I am quite interested in mecha game, tennis and snowboard game.
I'm part casual part addict. When I become addicted to a game..goes nuts over it..
but otherwise just casual..like when I got hooked on RF..lol

But I'm not trusting NC Soft to pull out any good casual games.

lineage 2 is a worthless game... they dont know how to make good games, when they update they do virtually nothing. I've been playing to play lineage 2 for 9 months now and it is the worse game i have ever touched, the first day in WoW made me laugh at the fact that lineage 2 is supposed to be "fun"...

I might sound a little bit stereotypical, but having access to Korean media and myself being a Korean, I have come to conclude that Koreans tend to like games that can be played on their own, but they still want some sort of way to communicate with people with similar interest and cooperative battle. Whereas N. American and European players tends to like party playing, like Everquest where party playing is absolutely essential.

Oh. So, Lineage 2 is the worst game you have ever touched, but you subscribed to it for 9 months?

Interesting.

yes, because i was too much of a panzy and too lazy to tell my dad that i quit the game
