MMORPG Tera officially becomes Free-to-Play, and submissions of Ouya prototypes have begun. Oh, and have you ever wondered why Mario fights with Luigi?

Tera Ouya

Tera

The popular MMORPG known as Tera is going to go Free to Play on February 5th. They said there will be three types of players in this new model...

Those who play for free.
Those who pay for a subscription.
Those who have the physical copy.

Of course, there will probably be a lot of privileges for the latter two groups, but can you really complain? Apparently the game has exceptional combat, but my computer can't run anything like that.

Ouya

Have you heard of the Ouya? It's going to be a 2nd next generation console out of the gate, allowing it to be very cheap, with very cheap games. The game library is going to be made up of indie games, mainly.

Anyways, the creators of the Ouya invited involved developers to submit their prototypes at an event known as CREATE. A panel of judges (including Phil Fish and Felicia Day) will determine the 10 best titles; the winning developer will receive $25,000. The finalists will be announced on February 11th, and the winner will be announced on the 18th. We'll keep you posted!
