| Concept Art of Guns and Robots Gives a Foretaste of the Upcoming Shooter Posted: 06 Nov 2012 02:21 PM PST Concept Art of GUNS and ROBOTS Gives a Foretaste of the Upcoming Shooter Masthead Studios release new artworks of the extraordinary weapons featured in GUNS and ROBOTS
SOFIA, BULGARIA—November 6, 2012—Masthead Studios, a leading independent game developer, today released new concept art showing extraordinary weapons featured in their upcoming shooter GUNS and ROBOTS.     GUNS and ROBOTS is an online shooter, featuring annihilating robots, dominating fields of battle with wide variety of fun, deadly weapons and weapon enchantments. The set showcases some noteworthy weapons that represent the unique atmosphere in the game. While not blasting any sand, Sandblaster discharges small caliber pellets. Thus, offering players a two-fold advantage – at short range – full damage capacity and at long range- almost zero chance of evading the attack. It has relatively slow rate of fire and to compensate this drawback, players can combine the Sandblaster barrel with Revolver or Hiccs chamber. The guaranteed damage output makes the Sprayshot a preferred weapon for newbies. Similarly to the Sandblaster it discharges multiple small caliber pellets, but differs in functionality. Although the weapon has extremely close range, whatever is within that range becomes severely damaged. The Toaster barrel is an advanced shuriken launcher, capable of discharging three blades simultaneously. The razor-sharp blades cover a wide area, providing the opportunity for hitting multiple opponents at medium to long range.The Hiccs semi-automatic chamber provides a terrifying burst capability and combined with the multiple projectiles becomes a devastating weapon in close encounters. The Reaper is the deadliest light weapon available in the GUNS and ROBOTS` devastating selection. While it normally boasts a relatively low rate of fire, the Hiccs attachment offsets this disadvantage and makes close combat lethal. Pick your weapons and dominate the fields of GUNS and ROBOTS this December!

| MapleStory Online Gamers + Obama = lOV3 Posted: 06 Nov 2012 12:45 PM PST MapleStory Online Gamers + Obama = lOV3
Nexon America's gamification of the presidential election in 'MapleStory' shows Obama as overwhelming favorite among online gamers Nexon America released its final presidential preference survey of "MapleStory" player with Barack Obama being preferred by 78 percent of those voting in the online poll in the US. There were 8,385 votes tallied from players in the US in this survey which ran from Nov. 2 to Nov. 4, and Obama was preferred by 6,512 players while challenger Mitt Romney collected 1,873 votes.
Players outside of the United States also made their voices heard, and their vote, tallied separately from the votes from players in the US, saw Obama favored by 88 percent of the participants.
Romney was favored by players in Alabama, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming, while Obama was the huge favorite in "swing states" such as Ohio, Florida and Wisconsin.
This is the third poll of players from "MapleStory" on topics relating to the presidential election. Three times players were asked who they preferred as president, the first time was in early September and October followed by this weekend's poll. In total, 34,605 "MapleStory" players in the U.S. and 20,225 players from outside the US, voted in the two polls. Domestically, Obama was preferred by 63 percent of the participants in both polls with Romney picked by 37 percent of the participants in both polls. Additionally, starting on Oct. 24, "MapleStory" saw more than 110,000 players participate in the in-game "Election Quest" event where players participated in election-themed events. The "Election Quest," which continues through Election Day, was headlined by two in-game presidential candidates, Stew representing the Democrats and Cole representing the Republicans. Stew and Cole, inspired by late night comedy show hosts in the US, saw a divergence in preference from the web-based polling that took place. While the Obama, the Democrat, was favored in the web-poll, Cole, the in-game Republican saw nearly 8,000 more players participate in his quest compared to Stew, the in-game Democrats, quests.
"MapleStory" also produced several videos to help players better understand the election process and how government works. Also, it held several contests for its players including inviting players to create their own campaign posters and videos. Also, hundreds of players registered to vote through the Rock the Vote partnership "MapleStory" offered on its "Elections Quest" website. For many of Nexon America's "MapleStory" players this is the first election they can vote in. A large number of "MapleStory" players are between the ages of 18-29 with more than 40 percent being female.
"This has been a fun event for everyone and the reaction from our players has been beyond what we had hoped for," said Han Sol Kim, a member of Nexon America's "MapleStory" production team. "We are excited about the prospect of having helped our players understand how the election works as well as giving them an outlet to let their voices be heard."

| Knock Some Heads With BigHead Bash From Aeria Games Posted: 06 Nov 2012 12:22 PM PST KNOCK SOME HEADS WITH BIGHEAD BASH FROM AERIA GAMES
Frantic and Zany Browser-Based Multiplayer Shooting Game Now Available on Aeria Games Network SANTA CLARA, Calif. – Nov. 6, 2012 – Hang on tight, because heads are gonna roll! Aeria Games, a leading global publisher of free-to-play online games, today announced the launch of BigHead Bash through the Aeria Games network. This popular browser game allows players to blast away all kinds of toys with over-the-top, side-scrolling shooting action. Much of BigHead Bash's charm lies in the familiar characters that come to life as player-controlled vinyl toys, many from recognizable brands such as Alice: Madness Returns. Not even politics are safe from being comically skewered—political puppets with names like Obaminator, Bushwhacker, and El Rominee, are also a part of the mayhem. The team-based matches in BigHead Bash are swift and frenetic. Teams can lay waste to their opponents with a huge assortment of weapons, from conventional arms like machine guns and sniper rifles to outlandish contraptions such as pepper grinders and tea cannons taken from the warped world of Alice. Going on a kill streak causes characters' heads to inflate, boosting their damage but also making them a bigger target for the enemy team. BigHead Bash is browser-based and does not require a download, and like all Aeria Games titles, it is free-to-play. Players can start shooting right now at http://bigheadbash.aeriagames. |
