I’ve been digging deep into Indonesian folklore and decided to create a set of "small spirits" (creepy child-like entities) that are pretty famous around here. * The Tuyul (The Classic…
Well, let me end your parenting parade. I've said I'm not a PS3 owner...meaning, my opinion of whether or not a PS3 is worth buying has more weight than someone who has already given their money to Sony, as I'm the statistic they're trying miserably to satisfy.

It's a complete engine that has stood the test of time. Gore shipped almost 5 years ago and still has over 100 people playing online,…
