    The accidental price point release was 7.99 (USD). Australia has a much higher exchange rate though. So if you thought you saw it at $10 or more the day they released that beta build on accident, than was an international price-point.

    And I will be picking it up immidiately. Some people are strapped for cash though and must consider their purchases carefully. I'm not in that boat, luckily. If 7.99 is a lot of money for you, then you might want to consider waiting. If the game doesn't pick up sales immidiately, and it might not, since its basically a brand new IP from an unheard of dev team, then the price might drop. I wouldn't be suprised to see it start at 7.99, only to end up selling for 4.99 within a week or two. I'll be owning the game myself long before any sale occurs.

    Cool, thanks. The site I just used converted $10.99 NZ to $7.56 US, so $7.99 would probably make sense, assuming it's a pretty straightforward conversion process (and it may not be). Of course, Nine Pound may have decided to set a different price for the upcoming launch. In any case, I'm with you -- the game is a must-have for the platform.

    All in due time folks. I'm not sure if we're going to introduce a boss before release, but I'm sure there's one somewhere in the midst ;)

    Are there skill trees? How does the sniper chick or the cyborg guy fit into this game or are they just for the mmo you are planning to make? Also, does the equipment you wear change your apperance and is there "loot"?

    (1) Yes. You also have special abilities you can acquire through the game called xenomes.

    (2) There are many NPCs in the game, but I don't remember if those specific folks are in Episonde 1

    (3) Yes.

    (4) Tons.

    As a beta tester I can tell you that those two characters don't feature in episode 1. The game overflows with loot and you will need to collect and sell lots of it to be able to afford all the high-level gear available in the in-game shop, and each item has specific bonuses to statistics. Certain items change your appearance, namely weapons, shoulder and torso armour. You cannot customise your stats when levelling up but you can customise your special abilities, and can select two passive and four active abilities at any given time. This is probably the greatest opportunity for customisation given in the game and choosing the best combination of abilities requires some experimentation.

    If you want, you can make your own game >.>... This is acually good graphics for a mobile device.

    It's is supposed to be for most iDevices, that's why you won't get graphics like Aralon.

    I think the graphics look great. Borderlands is friggin awesome tho, if this game has co-op like borderlands that would absolutely be amazing!

    I got a lot of hate for that comment haha and I haven't been following the game so I apologize because they are very good for a mobile device and by the way how's the iPad version going?

    I believe the graphics in this game can compete or surpasss any of the rpg's that are currently on the market. The video that was released last week was an older version of the game. The alphas in Xenome are much crisper and more resolute then most games out there. I you know anything about the hardware limitations of idevices, you would be able to see how far xenome is pushing the limit. Xenome also has a ton of assets with an open world( no load times between zones) which I dont think any other game can say they are doing that.
