      After reading that developer Ritual Entertainment had been <a href="http://kotaku.com/gaming/ritual/ritual-entertainment-bought-by-casual-games-dev-231268.php">aquired by casual games house MumboJumbo</a>, I assumed we'd never hear from the SiN crew ever again. I also theorized that SiN Episodes: Emergence was a certified sales failure (fortunately, that's not in print). Turns out I was <em>about</em> 74.2% wrong.				<a href="http://kotaku.com/232628/sin-episodes-not-canned" title="Click here to read more about SiN Episodes NOT Canned?">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

      MumboJumbo, developer of mind-numbing "casual games" like Luxor and Super Collapse has snapped up Ritual Entertainment, most recently known for their work on SiN Episodes. After releasing only one episode for the promised multi-chapter game, the company's future was <a href="http://kotaku.com/gaming/sin/sin-episodes-canned-222074.php">called into question months ago</a> amid rumors of key personnel changes.				<a href="http://kotaku.com/231268/ritual-entertainment-bought-by-casual-games-dev" title="Click here to read more about Ritual Entertainment Bought By Casual Games Dev">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

      So how's Steam doing in stopping piracy? Surprisingly poorly, according to Mike Russell over at Ritual. According to him, technical support requests for pirated copies of <em>Sin Emergence: Episode One</em> are five times more prevalent than from legitimate copies.				<a href="http://kotaku.com/190178/pirates-to-buyers-ratio-for-sin-episode-1-51" title="Click here to read more about Pirates to Buyers Ratio for SiN Episode 1? 5:1">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

				<a href="http://www.kotaku.com/gaming/14.jpg"></a>The possibilities behind episodic content in a world that could be dynamic are pretty exciting. That's what <i>SiN Episodes</i> are promising. Many a game have promised and let down, but I really want this one to live up to expectations. Ritual, the company behind the FPS, released a new <a href="http://www.sinepisodes.com/index.php?emergence_trailer01">trailer</a> for the game. 				<a href="http://kotaku.com/153976/ritual-wants-you-to-live-in-sin" title="Click here to read more about Ritual Wants You to Live in SiN">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
