Add to favorites Examiner Bio RuneScape Court Case guide, prosecuting the drunken dwarf

In the RuneScape distraction and diversion Court Cases, Drunken dwarf is one of the court cases RuneScape players have to weigh in after completion of the initial prosecuting of or defending the mugger. When the RuneScape player receives a court summons and shows it to the clerk, he may choose to prosecute or defend the drunken dwarf. This article focuses on prosecuting the drunken dwarf. See RuneScape Court Cases list for other court cases walkthroughs and RuneScape Court Cases disambiguation for other articles on this distraction and diversion.

In the court room, present the fingerprint as evidence. Summon to the stand the victim and ask him to talk about the attack. Then close the case, directing the statement towards the young woman in the jury. Wearing Ring of charos (a) is helpful.

RuneScape Classic Reminder

We’d like to remind everyone who’s interested in trying out RuneScape Classic, but has not yet logged in since it was re-opened, that the opportunity to do so will only be available for one more week. Only those members that log into Classic (using their normal username and password) before the end of Tuesday 15th June will be able to continue playing it after this date (unless their account is already Classic-enabled).

You can access RuneScape Classic here. New sign-ups should log into Classic worlds 2-6; Classic 1 is only accessible to those veteran Classic players who have stuck with it all the way through.

RuneScape Classic is the predecessor to the current RuneScape game. It was closed to new members over four years ago, but we want for players to be able to try out this important part of our history.

If you have any questions or wish to discuss this, please visit this forum thread.

Halo Crushes Super Mario Sonic and Call of Duty as Best Franchise

In what will certainly be considered a surprise by many gamers unfamiliar with the exploits of Master Chief and Cortana, Halo has topped the Guinness World Records list for the "Top 50 Videogame Series" of all time. That's right, Master Chief trumped Mario, Sonic, GTA, and the rest of the bunch.

But don't blow your brains out yet if you're a Sony or Nintendo fanboy. The list was compiled by Guinnes World Records, however it's actually based on user (reader) votes and not the traditional calculation of sales, longevity, etc.. It does say a lot about the franchise and it's strength in building a strong fanbase though. Since Halo topped the best franchise of all-time, you can probably figure out that the Xbox franchise is also the best shooter on the list as well.

It wasn't a small group of gamers as over 13,000 readers voted for the list in an online poll hosted on the Guinness World Records Gamer's Edition website for eight months in 2009. The list is featured in the Guinness World Records 2010 Gamer's Edition, a variant of the popular record-keeping reference book dedicated to achievements by video games and their players.

Nintendo and Sony exclusives got some love too along with some major third-party franchises. The full list of Guinness World Records's "Top 50 Videogame Series" follows:


Halo
Call of Duty
The Legend of Zelda
Guitar Hero
Metal Gear
Super Mario Bros.
World of Warcraft
Gears of War
Super Smash Bros.
Grand Theft Auto
Pokemon
Resident Evil
Fallout
Half-Life
Sonic the Hedgehog
Counter-Strike
Runescape
FIFA
Kingdom Hearts
Final Fantasy
Pac-Man
Madden NFL
The Sims
Tomb Raider
WWE Smackdown Vs. RAW
Rock Band
LittleBigPlanet
Saints Row
The Elder Scrolls
God of War
GoldenEye 007
Bioshock
KillZone
Skate

Guinness: top 50 game series will probably piss you off

The latest issue of the Guinness Gamers’ Edition holds the list of the top 50 game series, as determined by gamers. Stepping aside from the traditional look at total sales, or industry veteran’s opinion, this list is sort of the “for the people, by the people,” look at the “best” game series of all times.

We have little doubt many of you will disagree with this list, even if we can look past any console rivalry. It’s one thing to put Halo at the top seed, it’s another thing to put Guitar Hero above Rock Band or Gran Turismo.

Below is the full list. Have a look, and let the griping begin. We’d love to hear what our loyal readers think should be in the top 5 spots. This writer thinks God of War is way too low on the list, and even though it’s a PC game, where’s our favorite turn-based strategy game that’s getting a massive sequel this fall? And, seriously, Runescape beat Final Fantasy, Bioshock, and LittleBigPlanet? We guess it’s true what they say, opinions are like… everyone has one, and they all stink.

50. Pro Evolution Soccer
49. Crash Bandicoot
48. Burnout
47. Mario Kart
46. LEGO Batman
45. Diablo
44. Battlefield
43. Star Wars: Battlefront
