Titan Online introduces their cash shop in an unexpected manner
Martial-art fantasy giant robot MMO (yes, that's the genre) Titan Online is in their open beta phase and they're about to unveil their cash shop and all of the goodies contained within to their players, but they're not going to let anyone buy anything. Not just yet, at least. They aren't letting any user purchase their in-game currency, T-Cash, but they are opening the item shop on June 1st.So how are you suppose to get the items in the cash shop then? Why you need to win them via an event, of course! Titan Online will be throwing an special event in for the unveiling of the cash shop where players of all levels will be able to win some of the items contained within. They're also letting players win some T-Cash in advance by uploading their fan made movies onto YouTube.It's certainly an interesting way to open a standard feature of free-to-play MMOs, and hopefully it will be a bunch of fun for everyone involved. Plus, who can argue with free stuff?

Titan Online going to Grand Open Beta
We got a chance to check out Eya Interactive's upcoming free-to-play title Titan Online during GDC last month. The art and options caught our eye, and we've been waiting for the upcoming Grand Open Beta to check it out, set to launch on the 28th of this month. What has us so curious? We want to try out the giant robotic martial-art gaming that we're told are the true Titans in Titans Online! Of course, if giant butt-kicking martial-arts robots aren't your thing, there are pets and all manner of other things to do within this upcoming game. To add to the tasty goodness of TItan Online's Grand Open Beta, Eya has announced that they'll be doing a series of special events and competitions for players to participate in, which can land you everything from in-game currency to computer hardware like the ATI Radeon HD4850.

GDC09: Titan Online preview
At GDC, we had a chance to take a first look at EYA Interactive's upcoming free to play MMO Titan Online. Already available for play in Asia (as Mo Siang Online), a limited public beta has begun in North America and EYA anticipates a spring 2009 release. There's not a whole lot of information about Titan available, so we'll just explain it in EYA's words: An epic title based on traditional Asian culture, Titan Online is a fusion MMORPG that boasts a unique combination of martial arts and robots that takes place in a spectacular fantasy world. Titan Online is based upon the Korean best-selling novel, "Mo Siang." Set in ancient China, players will experience historic Chinese locales, meet influential figures from various dynasties, experience mysterious aspects of various ancient Asian cultures, all while trying to save the martial arts world by engaging in intense real-time battles. Developed in-house by EYA Interactive, Titan Online offers a very real picture of ancient China with 75 maps of historical sites, including Dun Hwang, Chang An, Kai Feng, Beijing, Shu Zhou, Shao Lin Temple, Chin Shi Huang mausoleum, Hang Zhou, Tai Shan, The Great Wall, and Hwang Her. In order to create the most true-to-life experience, the EYA development team spent time in China researching the ancient and historical cities so they could accurately reproduce them in the game. A historical martial arts game with robots? Our interest is piqued. %Gallery-48434%
