Sony has lost over $3 billion on the PS3

Think you paid too much for your Playstation 3? Don't expect any sympathy from Sony.I'm glad I bought a PS3 instead of a computer. And I'm glad Sony lost money over it because that just means I get more bang for my buck. I get a fast computer, that Sony basically handed to me! (oh, and it plays games too!)

Funorb Arcanist Review

I played this game after there was some news about it on Runescape's main page. The game being updated or whatever. Anyways, so I logged in. Tons of games were going on, and I joined. The whole game is made to look very 7-year-old-ish. I seriously doubt Jagex is aiming for ages 13+ with these games as Arcanist is so colorful it appeals to probably kids that JUST started using a computer. But, don't let the colors fool you, it's quite hard to play and master. There are all these hidden keys that you need to know, and you shoot all these spells at your enemies in this destructible world. Imagine that tank game (where there's a map with two tanks, and you both try and kill each other by gauging the wind speed and fire-strength) on steroids. There is no wind, but there are like a billion spells of different types, and you can upgrade them too. So everybody was firing these rain of fire and rain of arrows spells at each other, and trying to eat away at their hitpoints, and that's when I realized that there are teams! So, the game (I think) automatically assigns teams if more than 2 people are playing. It's definitely not easy to get started in, perhaps that is why they have a tutorial mode for this game (which nobody really plays). You can even spawn little imps to do your biding. I'd recommend not playing it as it is quite boring and difficult to learn. But then again, you can try it if you want.

RuneHQ Runescape Website

What? The newest game on Funorb is called Escape Vector? Or is it called Hostile Spawn? I don't care. I just don't care. What I do care about is China. The earthquake in my home country (it's in Sichuan even though I'm in GongZhou, it's the same country) has destroyed dams and cities. And we as a country depend on our dams. Damn right we do. We have the most dams of any country in the world (and the most dams per capita!) Let's see somebody make a game about THAT.

Another thing that comes to mind when thinking about misery and death is the dying Runescape fansite RuneHQ. It was only a few weeks ago that we thought they had an upper hand that we realized that they just suck since they just copy other better sites like Runescape Help and tripper.
