Gamersmint: A dude just bought some virtual property worth $330,000 in a game called Entropia Universe. Yeah, he paid that amount in real cash!
From Xfire: "Remember when you'd buy a game and... that was it? You got the full experience by purchasing the full product one time. "
Damn, Train Simulator is costing the big bucks. That game is kinda fun but not if you purchase all the DLC.
"All the DLC - Train Simulator 2020, $10,145"
No wonder we're witnessing an increasing number of ports from PC to consoles, you can't nickel and dime PC owners with all their mods over there, lol
"Legatus Pack - Star Citizen $27,000"
Ouch!
Planet Calypso - Entropia Universe, $6,000,000
WTF...?!
Living, breathing, multi-world Entropia Universe continues to bridge the gap between virtual and real with its newly launched virtual stock exchange. Earlier this month, Crystal Palace Space Station, the first company to be listed on the market, saw all of its shares claimed in less than 48 hours, marking the first time in the game’s 16-year history that shares in a privately-held estate were offered to the entire playerbase of Entropia Universe.
Entropia Universe is the largest Real Cash Economy Massively Multiplayer Online Game in the world, offering players the ability to participate in a unique virtual world where they have no monthly costs.
why would anyone do tht
This is madness!
the article, these properties has a real value attached to them and hence it's business, a kind of real estate, he can sell it off in the future for more money. If a fool decides to purchase it i.e. Otherwise he can kiss his $330,000 good bye.
On second thoughts, who would buy that thing for this much, so yeah
this is MADNESS!
literally lol.
$330,000 to spend:
A real life home or a virtual one.....hmmm, decisions, decisions.
