2010: A Retrospective, Answered Questions

2010, to me, was a bit like entering a shaved watermelon contest. I love watermelon, and I enjoy contests, and there isn’t much I won’t do for the promise of a trophy and perhaps a gift certificate to Denny’s. On the other hand, a trophy for “best shaved watermelon” isn’t exactly something I would use [...]

Runescape: Voting The Wilderness Part 2

The announcement that free trade is coming back to Runescape has sent players into a frenzy, more so asking the question of what will remain in the game when this update goes live.

Items were assigned numerical values, and trade restricted based on those values. Players no longer dropped items [...]

Steam Sales: Day #2 Up And Running

First off, I have to give my apologies to those of you who partook in yesterday’s sale on Aion, and will no doubt be at my door ready to slit my throat over the price reductions that are coming not 24 hours later. A few of the existing titles are now on sale at an [...]

Celebrate 10 Years of Runescape With 10 Grand

Runescape turns ten in 2011, and Jagex wants to roll in the first decade with, and this is just a guess, an overabundance of the number ten. Throughout 2011, Jagex will be rolling the dice and picking lucky winners out of a hat in order to win fabulous cash prizes (real cash, not Jagex bucks). [...]
