Ragnarok Online - The War Against Monsters Over Decades

Guild Wars 2 – Sales top Amazon Chart As Headstart Looms


We are unsure since when did Guild Wars 2 rose to the top of video games sales in Amazon, but it is a pretty neat feat considering how months ago there were some industry bigwigs saying "PC gaming is dead" or coming up with products to declare "PC gaming is not dead". Since when the hell is PC gaming facing death or was dead anyway? And congrats to Guild Wars 2 for hitting the top!
