Comments on: Fear and Loathing in Second Life Part 4: Happiness is a Warm Gun http://alphavilleherald.com/2007/01/fear_and_loathi-4.html Always Fairly Unbalanced Tue, 04 Oct 2016 13:18:56 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Raideur Ng http://alphavilleherald.com/2007/01/fear_and_loathi-4.html/comment-page-1#comment-38608 Raideur Ng Fri, 12 Jan 2007 21:36:38 +0000 http://localhost/wp_2/?p=1616#comment-38608 I have never bought a firearm during my stay in SL. However I certainly wanted to be well armed. Took freebies and made new models and redid the scripts. Right now I sell alot of guns at Armory Island. Guns have their niche. Some want a gangsta pistol. Some want an alien plasma cannon. Some want just something to get rid of idiots, others want to walk around looking like someone from WWII(which is my niche market.) Guns are just part of the outfit. Like earings, glasses, or a jetpack. I have never bought a firearm during my stay in SL. However I certainly wanted to be well armed.

Really a great business man, he managed to take theses shitty low-quality weapons (sometimes taken/stolen from freebies), slap phrases all over them like "shield killer" and "high power" and then sell them at usually double the normal prices to people who equate price to quality.

I really think the most innovative weapon EVER was the Sinistars, and it's were I cast my vote. Best design, best concept, hottest creator, best everything. The scripts started off shakey but after a couple months of updates it's the gun most people use, just because it's totally unique and original. If you wanted to actually wear a gun for sheer fashion only or glitz like Marilyn put it, it's got pure style. If you ever saw Equilibrium, the gun works a lot like that. One other gun that people forget about is also the Outland Tech rifle. I don't remember the name because it's almost a full year old but it was decent too. Both it and the Sinistar actually had original designs. Great article. I really think the most innovative weapon EVER was the Sinistars, and it’s were I cast my vote.
