Happy Fourth Anniversary Guild Wars!
Congratulations to ArenaNet on the fourth anniversary of Guild Wars! Three cross-cultural campaigns after pioneer players first heeded Ascalon’s call for heroes, the game continues to draw in new players with six million units sold.
ArenaNet’s continued commitment to improving gameplay certainly helps keep people playing, even with the delays to Guild Wars 2. Sure, World of Warcraft has 11.5 million users paying $14.99 a month to wander the world and grind for hours as deformed characters — but people don’t play Guild Wars for that. They want a highly modular, aesthetically pleasing online RPG they can pick up and play anytime they feel like it — and for four years straight, Guild Wars has delivered beautifully.
Alodia Magna Carta Cosplay
Sony’s old PlayStation 2 console could face a resurgence after its recent price drop. Just in time for that resurgence, Filipina gamer-blogger-cosplayer idol Alodia Gosiengfiao portrays concept art from the PS2 RPG Magna Carta: Tears of Blood. The game boasts character designs from renowned Korean artist Hyung-Tae Kim, of whom Alodia is a longtime fan.
