You're probably tired of seeing some Mabinogi Heroes / Vindictus Online videos, but unfortunately there was no interesting games this week but Mabinogi Heroes.

If you are looking for variety please wait for the next episode of STV 008! With delay again, I bring to you SteparuTV Weekly Volume 007, most of my loyal subscribers on youtube probably seen this episode though. Anyway, just to give you guys a heads up! Next week I will be covering some Dragon Nest, C9, Valiant, and Mabinogi Heroes. Cheers~

Devcat and Nexon Korea will be releasing a new patch for Mabinogi Heroes again! Yes, this game is constantly being updated a lot with new content and such, so you will never run out of things to do. Excited about the updates? You should be! With the recent huge patch for Mabinogi Heroes, they added Hard, and Heroes mode. Now with this patch, you can view parties easier for the type of dungeon you would like to do. A couple new bosses will be available along with new armor for each class! And for Evy lovers, the most anticipated level 22 skill will be available in this update, Reverse Gravity.

Eyasoft announced that their upcoming 3D FPS-MMORPG called Project E will be entering it's 2nd Alpha Testing phase by the end of the month. You can sign up early, or late since it's an Open Alpha Test. The FPS MMORPG doesn't just focus on a bunch of ranged weapons though, you are given the choice to use normal weapons like huge 2 handers, short sabers, and etc. For a hardcore gamer like me, the games graphics resembles a bit like PSU Online. If you haven't heard of that game yet, google is your best friend. Except Project E is more Anime'ish, so you can't exactly say it's a clone! Plus the gameplay and controls is a different from the PSO/PSU series. Check out the full Alpha Test schedule below!

Nexon Korea will be releasing new content for Dragon Nest Online. This is probably one of the biggest gigantic patches that Dragon Nest has gone through in awhile. So what kind of goodies will loyal Dragon Nest players be getting in this content? First of all, there will be a mountain full of new quests. Aside from the mass amount of content update, moving on to the more important part of this update, is the new level cap. A lot of old Dragon Nest players can now reverse their "sad face". It's been a long time since they last raised the level cap, which was previously Level 32. With this new level cap in play, expect a lot of old school Dragon Nest players to return! Check out the rest of the update below along with a brand new trailer.

MGames latest side-scrolling action RPG Animal Warriors will be entering it's second beta testing phase in two weeks. Animal Warriors recently made it's debut during last years Gstar2009. You can find a gameplay video of the game by thisisgame.com here. Looking at that trailer, I have to say one unique feature that stood out in this game was the ability for your humanoid AW character to transform into their respective beast form.
