    World Rape girl, 13, killed for adultery

    In those parts of the world where they follow traditional views of Islam, girls who have been raped must kill themselves or be killed in order to restore honour to their family. And the criminals more often than not walk free. It's disgusting, but it does still happen far too often in...

    Acti-Blizz scheduling Starcraft for 2009...

    I think this is why it's probably best to not announce these things too early. Games taking too long to ship from the official announce date kills all the excitement of it. I'll buy this game for sure, but I'm not going to play it with the same enthusiasm I had back around E3 2007.

    Diablo 3 being announced?

    Yea I agree that Tyrael will be back in a big way. They've pretty much alluded to it by saying that, without the Worldstone, there is nothing stopping the forces of both Heaven and Hell from entering the world of Sanctuary. On a related note, I'm not really up to date on all the lore or...
