Tabula Rasa's referral program: scratch our back, and we'll scratch yours too
There's the old saying that goes something down the lines of good things come to those who wait, but Richard Garriott and NCsoft seem to have a better idea in mind. Well aware that there's not exactly a shortage of great games on the market for us to enjoy right now, they've decided to share a little early holiday cheer of their own with the announcement of Tabula Rasa's referral program. The concept behind it is simple: As an account holder, you can send your friends a free three-day trial of the game. If they in turn upgrade to the full version, you are entitled to a month's worth of fun of your own with the MMORPG, for free. Sound like a good deal to you? Catch up on all the juicy details here. Not bad at all, considering the game is less than a month old. Get ready to fire off those invites, sell your soul, and lose yourself to yet another massively multiplayer online role-playing game. Face it -- you don't have anything better to do, anyway. Now head down to the basement, and accept your fate. At least this game seems like it might be a halfway decent use of your time, and you won't go down alone. Isn't that what friends are really for, in the first place? [Via 1up -- Thanks again, Lemon] Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Tabula Rasa is everything that's wrong with current 'breaking the mold' MMO's that are just WoW with a different skin. I hope it crashes and burns. Burn I say, BURN. WoW has almost the same function. It's called the "Scroll of Resurrection." Basically if WoW player (A) coaxes a previous WoW player (B) back into the game, the player A gets a free month of gametime. I played the beta of TR for a couple months but couldn't justify buying it when it was still massively bug-ridden and didn't seem to have a lot of support. It has a long way to go but I honestly hope it manages to distinguish itself in the MMO world, but right now I'm going to City of Heroes where my friends are. They ain't switching just so I can get free months. 2:00 AM on 05.25.2013 GameStop stock drops following Xbox One revealAs if the fallout from the Xbox One reveal on Tuesday couldn't get any weirder, along comes news that GameStop stock ended the trading week down 19%.
