I could never be in a crate for so long. That picture just shows it doesn't look comfortable.

Solid_Snake-4699d ago

lol@ where he's traveling from.

AstroZombie14700d ago

How is he going to stay online or am the only one wondering this?

ruibo4700d ago

I think you've been away from technology too long my friend.

AstroZombie14700d ago

or maybe I'm wondering how a person in a sealed box can still have internet access while still travelling across multiple US states.

ruibo4700d ago

No harm intended but, ever heard of 4G wireless broadband internet?

ATiElite4699d ago

It's called WiFi or he could use Mobile Broadband!

I would be more concerned about where is he gonna take a shite at! 7 days wearing adult diapers sounds like one hell of a rash not too mention the smell.

Lord_Sloth4699d ago

Phones can act as Wi-Fi hot spots now, dude. I'm more curious about how he intends to go to the bathroom and eat and drink in that box for a week.

Pro_TactX4699d ago (Edited 4699d ago )

He could use an iPhone as a wireless access point. I don't know great that would be for gaming, but there you go.

Edit: Although now that I think about it, he will likely be shipped in a metal container. That would probably interrupt his signal. Anyone ever try to use a cell phone in an elevator?

Nothing is stopping him from just gaming offline.

Wifi while on the road would be sparse.

Mobile broadband would be expensive.

news4geeks4699d ago

he poops then eats it for the nutrition.

THWIP714699d ago

...nothing could possibly go wrong with this plan. :o

David Blaine wouldn't be stupid enough to try this sh#t. o_o

MidnytRain4699d ago

No, but he might be CRAZY enough to do it.

As The 17th Anniversary Approaches, Lord Of The Rings Online Details 2024 Plans

New raids, class updates, festivals and more are on the calendar.

Now this makes me feel old! I remember playing the beta while I worked at Gamestop. I honestly didn't even know this game was still online! A quick search showed that it's even F2P now, so I may check it out for nostalgia's sake.

I only subbed at launch for 1-2 months bc I was already caught up in WoW at the time. I love the LotR universe though and would like to see how it's being handled these days.

Middle-earth Enterprises sends cease-and-desist letter to LOTRO rogue server project

From MMORPG: "Some Lord of the Rings Online players may have been aware of an unofficial rogue server project that was set to release this month called Echoes of Angmar. Aiming to create a true vanilla version of LOTRO, trait lines and map-less Old Forest and all, the server ran the real risk of drawing legal ire down on its head because of the unlicensed use of a very much still-operating and still-in-development MMO.
