FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Gothenburg, Sweden - December 3, 2012
/MindArk/ - MindArk, the developer of the largest

Entropia Universe, and its various planet partners, only behind
World of Warcraft in terms of popularity.
"There are many places for fans to go and share their opinions
on what games they spend their time and money on, but there are so
few that clearly aggregate the data to show what the community as a
whole thinks," said David Simmonds, CEO of MindArk. "This
list clearly confirms that our players really enjoy their time in
our world and that's a great feeling."
TheTopTens is a collection of visitor created top ten lists
categorized by list type and made available for users to add to and
vote on as they see fit. In this case a user, not affiliated with
MindArk in any way, posted a poll on what MMORPGs were the
best. The poll was voted on over 1000 times by different
users, with Entropia Universe garnering 11% of the vote. The
current Top Ten list is in order:
World of Warcraft, Entropia Universe, Runescape, Dream Of
Mirror Online, Final Fantasy XI, Guild Wars, Lineage 2, Maplestory,
Ragnarok Online, Lord Of The Rings: Shadows Of Angmar.
