One of the most famous works of Chinese literature in history, Romance of the Three Kingdoms (RotTK) has spawned countless adaptations in all kinds of media.
Now in its eleventh iteration, Koei's latest Romance title sees you doing pretty much what you did in the previous games. That is, take control of an empire and, with the help of your loyal officers, attempt to take control of China through force.
Direct2Drive has kicked off its third week of Spring Sale discounts, offering 30%-75% off on over 20 titles and bundles including 40% off Star Trek Online, 50% off Battlefield 2 Complete Collection and Dawn of War II, 67% off of the X-Com Complete Bundle and 75% off of the Civilization IV Complete Edition.
This is a game with a long heritage. Based on the 14th-century historical novel of the same name, this is the eleventh game in the series. Eleventh! There are very few games with that kind of pedigree. And these aren't sequels, or spin-offs, or even really 're-imaginings' – they are more-or-less the same game, constantly revised for new platforms and technologies.
Three Kingdoms The Battle Begins: MMORPG has Launched. This is a free to play MMO that had some limited beta testing in an Open Beta last week. It is offered by online game publisher Uforia.
The launch saw some server downtime and some concern over antivirus software improperly identifying elements in the download as a virus. Themida is actually an anti-hacking device. The item mall has also been open with new items being added.
