Eve Online Robbed

So in an unexpected move yesterday a bank was robbed. How horrible that people lost all there money. Plus the FDIC did not insure the bank so this makes this even more horrific for the people involved. However this bank was virtual, along with the money. So there was a virtual heist. The guy “Ricdic” who was in control of the bank on EVE Online traded $1.2 million of fake money ISK (the fake currency) for $5,000 bucks real life cash. He used the money to pay off debts. Would you trust a banker with the word dic after his first name? I wouldn’t. I say put fake money into a fake account, and it gets fake stolen, deal with it. I never did trust that little creep from Monopoly. That’s why I keep all my Monopoly money in a safe deposit box, cause anybody with a monocle cannot be trusted. Goes for Mr. Peanut too.

Found: One mysterious iPhone
There’s a prototype 16gig iPhone 3Gs on eBay right now. It was found at an airport and it can’t be restored. An Apple Genius has looked over the phone, and did confirm it is an apple product however it was never registered in the apple database, as every product should be. The serial number apparently never made that list. It’s going for $365.00 right now on eBay. Who knows maybe its open source or even more in tune with reality plays FLASH!, which in any case would make the phone priceless .  I’ll keep you posted if anything comes of this iPhone.

Lower Prices or make your own damn games
Another company jumped on Sony’s back to lower the prices of the PS3. This time it’s Tecmo Koei. Activision has already threatened to pull development for future PS3 games if the price does not drop, and Tecmo is “maybe” thinking the same thing. They are just suggesting they would like the prices to lower. These developers are not necessarily losing money, but they’re not making as much money as they are with Xbox360. I think it’s about time somebody spoke up too Sony about their outrageous prices. Also to add my cons against Sony they killed the Hulu ability of the PS3, that’s a whole other rant.  However I think this is just a big ploy by Sony to make everyone happy and they’ll lower the prices in time for Christmas so they’ll be a hot seller.  They move all digital crack with dust building it up on it.

Why the three articles? I’m extremely busy this 3 day weekend. So hopefully this will keep you over till I can clear more time to write a longer post.
