Prior to we enter every one of the Indie MMO goodness from last week, it s time for a PSA.

With numerous of the games detailed here offering alpha and beta welcomes, it can be really alluring to accept among these offers from an informal resource. However, this is a new (or perhaps reworked?) Disharmony rip-off, and rather than a game, you ll be downloading a virus.
