The9 also recently made a $35million deal with Webzen to distribute the upcoming Huxley MMOFPS in China.

Oh for god's sake. 5 years ago communist China was the suposedly "bad guy". And now every jack shit mega greed corporation turns to china to undercut western social developments. I really hate this.

Why can't EA keep their servers in the US where they belong?

When our government backs down and lets all these corporations rape the western world, then move to rape the next developing country.

if you really want to stop china, try to survive without anything made in there.China sacrifices alot by making those cheaps stuffs and also gets itself heavily polluted......., Anyway, it is no longer the communist country in old days but a peaciful place focusing only on business, at least more peaciful than U.S...

Well, let's put it this way, China's economic growth is over 10 per cent per annum, most civilised countries are only growing at between 2 to 5 percent per annum, this means that there are people with more expendable income, which is prime territory for entertainment investment. Not to mention the numbers of people here, if you can sell a game for 30yuan/rmb (USD$3.75) and make a profit of 8yuan/rmb per game (USD$1), and sell it to even 5 percent of computer/internet users (last count, about 100 million) that's still USD$5,000,000, whilst there is a saturation of games in more developed countries, and lets face it, there hasn't been a huge amount of innovation in recent computer games, so moving to a market that's less mature, you're more likely to make dosh on things that developed countries are starting to see and say "been there, done that", that the Chinese aren't bored with yet. And in agreement with Be Easy, unfortunately China's resources have taken a heavy toll on the country's "to be rich, is to be great" motto.

And why do EA servers BELONG in the US? Tell me that. What is really sad is you uneducated or blindfolded people thinking the US has the best of everything. It doesn't Hell most of you guys down there can't even get a 5MB connection to the net. I'm in Canada and I have 30mb connection,(which is kind of pricy), which still pales in comparison to places like Sweden who are 10 megabit and more for about half of what we are paying in North America. Hell move EA servers to Sweden if you don't like China.

Wanna know the reason why every other country than the US has superfast connections? It's because when we bomb someone or someone gets bombed by someone else we spend millions or billions on rebuilding their countries infrastructure when we can spend 5 cents on increasing security in the homeland. If the US were to face catastrophy that destroyed our communications infrastructure, you can bet your britches we'd fix it up to have fiber and "mike" all over the damn place and we'd be the ISH!!!
