CROSS GATE was not introduced to the US, but it has gained popularity within Asian countries such as Japan, Taiwan and Korea.

CONCERTO GATE is an ��exciting MMORPG that is easy to play and is presented in a cute style��. CONCERTO GATE introduces a unique feature called the ��terra-generating�� system. This innovative system constantly changes the topography of the game world. For example, players can dig in the ground to mine for minerals, and after digging for a while, small holes will eventually become giant holes. Forests can be demolished, and new mountains can be formed depending on interaction between players. Large-scale terrain changes will not occur in a day or two, but will be gradual. Players will most likely see changes over several weeks. Also, random encounters with monsters are prevalent in CONCERTO GATE. Similar to traditional RPGs, players exploring the map can be ambushed at any time by enemies.
��This endeavor is very meaningful at every level for all parties involved. It is a marriage of OnNet USA��s expertise of publishing micro-transaction based games and Square Enix��s production of groundbreaking titles. I guarantee you will like CONCERTO GATE,�� says Kevin Kim, CEO of OnNet USA.
OnNet USA is planning to launch the public beta in the first half of 2008.

Is this such crap already that isn't worth a single notch on the hype-meter? I stumbled on it by accident, and was going to miss it anyway.
