Man Spends $16,000 On An In-Game Sword

Oh, and did I mention that the game hasn't even been released yet?
Developers of the upcoming game Age of Wulan thought that auctioning off exclusive items for their new MMORPG would be a good way to help promote it. Something tells me they weren't expecting someone to throw down an amazing $16,000 on a virtual sword.

For that amount of money you could buy an entire suit of armour, a real one, and sit in it while you play the game.

I think that is pretty neat assuming he is emotionally sound and has the financial means. He's supporting a new company which will create jobs and stimulate the economy if they are successful.

And thus the age of spending days fighting the same monster for Prine Poo's Sword is over.
