June 18th, 2009 2 Comments   Posted in Adventure, MMO, Multiplayer, Online, PC

NCsoft’s upcoming MMO Aion (they make a lot of MMOs, in case you didn’t notice), will be getting a collector’s edition, like many other NCsoft MMO titles.

The Aion Collector’s Edition will include a figurine (pictured above) and the game’s soundtrack as well. Oh, and it’ll also come in a great looking box (also picture above), for $70. Pre-ordering the set will give players exclusive in-game items as well.

Guild Wars 2 delayed

February 15th, 2009 1 Comment   Posted in MMO, Online, PC

Those anticipating the release of Guild Wars 2, are in for some bad news. Apparently, during an investor finance briefing, NCsoft was quoted to have said that Guild Wars 2 won’t be out until 2010-2011. Bummer.

Joystiq notes that although the developer had to cut some staff and won’t be showing up at E3 this year, their game Aion sold remarkably well in Korea which leads us to believe that financial woes did not cause this delay.
