| Article Title :: Video Game Stores Selling Mature Titles to Kids |
| |
| Do stores that sell video games, always, and I mean ALWAYS, check for ID on questionable titles? I have it on pretty good authority they do not."I always check for ID, but my boss does not. He wants a sale," says one assistant manager for a top gaming franchise. When I asked someone who worked for a competing store, he too agreed that they can be pretty lax in checking for ID. "If it gets busy and we have a long line, I don’t check for ID. I don’t think I checked ID once during the holiday season. If a kid wants a game bad enough he is going to buy it or steal it.

| Article Title :: World of Warcraft Gold - Virtual Gold for Real Money |
| |
| As J.R.R. Tolkien pointed out half a century ago, "All that is gold does not glitter." That statement seems particularly apt when applied to World of Warcraft gold. Not only is World of Warcraft gold the virtual currency of a virtual world -- and therefore doesn't glitter at all except on computer screens -- it's worth real gold on the world financial markets. In fact, World of Warcraft gold is worth more than many hard currencies, including the Japanese yen, Indian rupee, and Russian ruble. What's going on here?A cross of goldRecently, World of Warcraft gold peaked at almost a dime per gold piece -- not bad when you consider that the World of Warcraft MMORPG, where it's the (read full article) |

As of December 2005, the exchange rate between the dollar and the Star Wars Galaxy credit stood at $4.40 for a cool million. What can you buy for a million credits? How about a really nice lightsaber, a moisture farm on Tatooine, or a stake in your very own asteroid?
