21st, the South Korean government issued a statement that next year will raise the cost of game-level review, the statement sparked the industry's discontent. The rating of Poker class is up to 3 million won (17300 yuan) by the current 720,000 won (4200 RMB); The cost of the MMORPG game was raised to 1.08 million won (6200 yuan) by the current 3 million won (17300 RMB)　　Mobile games from the current 60,000 won (350 yuan) rose to 100,000 won (580 yuan), and other download games according to the size of the game made corresponding adjustments. The gaming committee said the fee revision was based on the "principle of beneficiary's commitment", as instructed by relevant congressional departments last year.　　The related expenses of the level review should be borne by the game enterprise. South Korean culture and Sports tourism Department pointed out that 8th, the game Level Committee approved next year's budget for the 4.91 billion Yuan won (28 million yuan), in this year's budget of 6.1 billion Yuan won (35 million yuan) a full cut of 1.2 billion yuan won (7 million yuan).　　The Commission will need to achieve a balance of expenditure by reaching 1.2 billion won in the year.　　In the proportion of cost adjustment, for large-scale imitation gambling games and large enterprises to develop large MMORPG game cost adjustment is larger, while the individual development-oriented leisure game adjustment is as low as possible, reducing the burden on individual developers.　　People said that the current cost of the review is 60% of the actual cost, the plan is 100% next year, and 2012 is more than 50%, with such a standard for the review of the cost of two stages of adjustment.　　In response to this adjustment program, the game industry generally expressed dissatisfaction. The head of a small game company says 1 million or 3 million is not a problem for big companies, and it's a big burden for small businesses. Others say the game will need to undergo a new level of review for less modification during the test period, as the completion of the highly costly review game is reduced. It may even cause development disruption.　　In the absence of operations and without income, the cost of a five or six-test-level review is actually very difficult. In response to these cases, a 1/6 review of the cost of the revision programme is under discussion.　　The Committee also indicated that the review project, which had been applied for prior revisions, accounted for 30.4% per cent of the total project. The adjustment will be on 22nd to the next month 10th for a 20th publicity, listen to the broad views of the plan in the next month 13th official implementation.
