Ok, so once again Gaia failed to grant us an Easter event.....
Damn it Flux, get over it already! scream
Fine, there is always a next year xp .
*End of Easter rant*
April started with the right foot, right around the corner the newest game was released: Gaia Pinball blaugh
Everyone knows how the game works, you hit the ball with the flippers and rack up your score. However, THIS is Gaia Pinball so it has to be special. xd As you play the game you get to witness scenes from Gaia's long history (which I have talked about in past entries wink ) such as Gambino's mansion destruction in Halloween 2004 and the War with the Von Helson family. I won't bother explaining every aspect of the game, you have played it and you know all about it. 3nodding Here is some pics from my best moments playing the game:
^Got the screenshot too fast but is 20,000 x 4 = 80,000 points!
^You remember the Zurg plot, right? domokun
^Oh yeah, beated those bitches! twisted
^My personal best, I know someone who scored over 25 million points. surprised I could have scored higher but I got tired and stopped using my armadillos for extra lives. xp
The next and most important event this month was the announcement of Ian's return. You might remember back in 2005 New Year's ball he was arrested apparently for the arson of the Gambino mansion. While facing trial and the period after it his cat Rufus took over Barton Boutique. Even though he was found innocent he didn't returned right away since someone tried to assassinate him. Even after Rufus begged him to come back in Halloween he refused, but after the entire confusion product of his tidings with the Von Helson and Gambino families and the vampire wars he finally came back:
^He was playing Pinball all this time? How could you Ian? gonk
Anyways,it was nice to see him back in business just like the good old times, but I still need to get used to his new hair:
That doesn't mean Rufus is out of business, we can still bargain with him if we want (Cat lovers for the win heart )
With the month coming to an end I thought there wouldn't be anything else totalk about. The monthly letter items should have been mentioned next, but something else DID happened.....
That's right, you guessed it. The infamous Bag of Win was released in the Cash Shop, and it was probably the most controversial item ever released. If you thought the Infinity Hat with its 4chan item knockoffs was bad, then think again! evil
The Bag of Win guaranteed users an item worth at least 5,000 gold, but the most notorious thing about it was that it was a chance for users to get rich in seconds. I saw notorious because most users didn't approved it, if you liked it then good for you, everyone has their opinion. The Bag of Win could become a Mythril Bag that holded a Mythril Coin, the value of the coin varied and it could be sold back to the stores for the value it had. Think about it, there was the chance to get coins worth one million gold! eek So you could sell it to the store and BAM, you were filthy rich. xp
Personally I didn't even bothered to get one, I don't spend real money and the market prices were just ridiculous. Due to the huge uproar in the forums the bag was removed like 24 hours after its release, I don't know for how long it was supposed to be out but it was going to be a short time anyways. People complained about its removal too, but it was not coming back. What will Gaia release next? The Monthly Collectible Box? twisted The promise of not mass re-releasing old monthly items has stood up very well for now,please don't break your promise Gaia. xp
All right, enough of the bag. This month's items were predicted to rock, and they did. xd We got the choice between the Rock Puppy and Rock Hard (Demonic Mic), so now the adorable Gaia mascot is an item and we get an Angelic Mic conterpart. heart
See you next month fellow readers. 3nodding
*PM Bubble appears*
What?
*Opens*
GREAT NEWS GAIANS!
For a limited time we released a new item in the Cash Shop called the MC Box, for just $59.99 you get the chance of getting the rare and envied Angelic Halo. What about the highly seeked Devil Tail and OMG Hat? Oh yeah, they could be yours too! So hurry up, get your MC Boxes while they are hot! twisted
^NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*Note: The MC Box announcement is totally fake, no announcement or item were actually made. NOW CHILL OUT!*
