NCSoft is concerned about the location and the juries being biased toward American plaintiffs. However I do like how in the KoreaTimes article the quote..
A Seoul-based patent lawyer said Worlds.com is apparently a ``patent troll,'' or an opportunistic company that enforces its patents on those who infringe aggressively despite lacking the intention to manufacture and market the product.I'll end with a nice quote found on VirtualWorldNews when speaking to an NCSoft rep...
``Worlds.com is likely to be more interested in getting paid in a huge settlement than shutting down NCsoft's games,'' he said.
"We can't comment on potential litigation except to say that NCsoft takes all legal action seriously -- even if the company believes a lawsuit has no merit," a representative told me via email. "We intend to defend ourselves vigorously."

Good for NCsoft, hope they win. I love their games.
Interesting. I hope they have something to pull themselves out of the fire.
Of course, I think MMO's need to be reinvented right now, as most are getting annoying.
Anyways, I do not wish NCSoft to fall, so I guess I will root for them.
It's about time someone is fighting back and calling it for what it is! I hope NCSoft counter suite for things like harassment and similar filings if they win.
Fight the lazy companies / people out there!
I can see NCSoft winning.
I can see ignorant Americans who are hand picked by Worlds.com for their technology ignorance will award the American based company millions for their patent of an already existing medium of gaming simply because they are easily swayed hicks.
I'm not saying all Americans are this stupid, just a large enough percentage that they can easily be found and chosen for jury duty.
...All the million dollars game company should just put a end to worlds.com hell we all know that they are going to sue them later when they got the cash to...
