The first game of the series, Infection has just been released in the US, The second has been out for a while in Japan. A pretty good review of the game is avaliable here
The game uses MMORPG combat mechanics while it has a classic Japanese RPG plot. Japanese artists that use characters with virtual lives are nothing new. Just take a look at Lain
I'd say that they want to imitate Ford's success in Spanish-speaking countries. Just like Ford released the Nova (doesn't work in Spanish), Centrino sounds awfully close to "Cetrino", which means pig-like.
This not very different from the Gamespy vulnerability posted here about a month ago. This vulnerability also lets the attacker crash the server instead of just using it for a DDOS attack. What do you guys think it's more likely, that a script kiddie will use a l337 h4ck to try to DDOS yahoo, or taht he'll just try to take down every unreal server on the internet?
I just wonder if this was caused by a drunken programmer that decided that avioding a handshake would optimize the network code, or by just a network programmer that didn't even know what a handshake is. If this happened in my company I'd wish it was the former, not the latter.

Well, Ubi can make a god game from time to time. Splinter Cell has been getting good reviews. But yes, their track record is even worse that EAs.
