TERA news is coming fast and furious lately, and luckily for En Masse, today’s blurb is a good one. The game is officially available for pre-order, and as you would expect, there are all kinds of options relating to various gifts and gadgets depending on where (and what version) you purchase. There’s also a bit of beta bribery in the form of automatic access to all five of the closed testing phases that begin this month and continue through April.
What about the editions?
Well, you can choose between standard, digital collector’s, and physical collector’s version, and the latter two come with an in-game mount and a couple of unique necklace items. The physical collector’s edition justifies its $79.99 price point with a cloth map, a soundtrack CD, a handbook, a compass, and a letter of marque. En Masse is also offering a couple of exclusives for purchasing directly through its online store.
THQ CEO Farrell takes 50% pay cut, board of directors also takes cuts
Feb 1st

THQ is definitely experiencing some troubles related to its uDraw flop and subsequent layoffs, as evidenced by a new document filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. President and CEO Brian Farrell will take a pay cut for the year starting February 15, which reduces his salary from $718,500 to $359,250. His salary will go back up the next year.
His golden parachute has also been tailored a bit more closely, as the payment he’d receive upon departure from the company (either termination “without cause” or resignation with “good reason”) has been cut from three times his highest-ever bonus to just his highest-ever bonus. This is, of course, a small sacrifice compared to the THQ employees whose salaries went from “some” to “none.”
The board of directors is also seeing some cuts: all the other directors have “elected” to receive 50% less cash compensation for a year effective today.
Activists target SWTOR’s future same-gender romances

It looks like the notorious Family Research Council has decided that it’s again time to dust off its pitchforks and light some torches, and this time the organization has Star Wars: The Old Republic in its sights. In a post on the Family Research Council’s website, president Tony Perkins announced that “in a galaxy not so far far away, Star Wars gamers have already gone to the dark side.”
Why are SWTOR players seeing a sudden influx of dark side points? Because, as the group states, “the new video game, Star Wars: The Old Republic, has added a special feature: gay relationships.” Well, not quite — fans of the game know that same-gender romance arcs have been slated to be a post-launch feature since last fall but are still not part of the live game. The FRC is calling on players to think of the children and claims that parents and forum-goers alike are bothered by this “Star Warped way of thinking,” asking them to “show companies who the Force is really with!”
