Earn real-life weapons by playing videogames

Examiner: "Not content with the real baseball bat you get in the mail for beating prostitutes in Grand Theft Auto IV? Have I got a deal for you! Massively multiplayer online collectible real-time strategy game SAGA (quite the mouthful) is the center of a new contest in which the grand prize is none other than a ballista.

Yes, I said a freaking ballista. Not entirely sure what a ballista is? Well, step one involves looking at the picture associated with this article, but if that's not enough for you, let's just say that it's like a giant crossbow designed for hurling boulders and huge arrows made out of tree trunks."

I played it one time. Seems like it could be cool, but it was a little "cheap" feeling if you know what I mean.

A ballista could come in handy some day I suppose.

I can see the news headlines though; "Games provide murderers-in-training with real weapons of mass destruction!"

Ahh! Don't give the terrorists any ideas! They could use this ballista to shoot a grenade up to 200 feet away from them!
