We were standing by the lake and all of a sudden this women pushes her boat into the lake and started paddling into the morning fog, and then hoisting this really small sail that she probably made herself.

KUF : The Secret History

Much has been said about that fateful moment when Kingdom Under Fire was suggested by a certain rice300 member as a game to play.  This person was Graham Tse.  And because of that decision he has been tainted forever by what some people have said to "be the worse game ever".  It has been suggested in some circles that it should be put on his permanent record.  

However like most historical events the truth of what actually happened is clouded by time and deep resentment.  Resentment for Graham for inflicted such pain to people.  Graham's inability (some say stubbornness) to admit the wrongs of that decision has also coloured the perception of people's memories.  

As I'm a truth seeker I will now reveal the truth of what actually happened in that glorious time of 2007.  Glorious in that it was the year of Crackdown, Assassin's Creed, Halo3 and COD : Modern Warfare.. and KUF.

This is what is the perceived truth of KUF.

1. It was Graham's dumb fault that we got KUF.

2. KUF was the worse game in the world

Obviously we cannot prove point 2 as a metacritic score in the 60's isn't really an indication of an ass game.

But let's explore point 1 with the email evidence

(I promise that I did not alter any of these email exchanges.  If you doubt please email me and I'll forward the originals)

GRAHAM

Nobody else says anything.  

Then 2 weeks later on the 31/12/07 this email..

MYSTERY PERSON

i'm in 188 right now and kingdom under fire is 318 anyone interested?

JINNAH THEN WROTE THIS EMAIL

You are in 188 man.. I wish I could be there with you now ..  Is that

kingdom under fire good?

GRAHAM REPLIED IN 3 MINUTES

i think it will be a fun Co-Op game... what do you guys reckon? 

THE MYSTERY PERSON WROTE THIS 1 MINUTE AFTER GRAHAM

looks alright, i think i might buy it

GRAHAM

ok... just called LG... he says he will buy KuF: Circle of Doom... 

you can call LG and ask him haha... XXXX got me a copy already.... 

JINNAH

got lg to buy it for me.  Hey, lets play togetehr tmr

So with this revelation does this change your perception of the history of KUF?  Yes Graham was definitely involved in the initial suggestions to play KUF.  But did the comments of the mystery person help cement the final purchase of KUF and therefore stain Graham's reputation on gaming?  Should this mystery person take some of the blame?
