PC - Tabula Rasa - NCsoft Shifts to Non-Game Internet Services NCsoft is slowly but steadily expanding to the non-game Internet service sector, while its cash-cow game business is losing vigor.

Korea's largest game company this year has released a series of social-networking services from Openmaru, an in-house software studio, with strong support from its CEO Kim Taek-jin. Meanwhile, its stock price almost halved over the past two months, as investors raised doubt about the prospect of its online games business.

These key territories are control points, and they are an integral part of what defines our dynamic battlefields."

Sept 14, 2007 Famed game designer and space travel enthusiast, Richard Garriott sure makes a good case for his latest sci-fi MMO, Tabula Rasa. It's promising all the sorts of things we'd like to see changed in the stagnant genre. Like Garriott, we're tired of the typical whack-a-mole combat, class systems that lock you into choices you made without even playing the game, and forgettable plot points.
