Thanks-







I shall be reviewing ROBLOX today.

ROBLOX is a 3D Creative Game. ROBLOX has MANY features! It gives children the oppurtunity to build, script, invest, forum, play games, and many more! Before I get started on the more serious stuff (scripting, investing, foruming), I would like to tell you guy about playing user made games.

ROBLOX gives users the oppurtunity to create there own game. Yes, create a 3D game! It can be about ANYTHING (within the rules), and almost anything is possible! In game there are many options, depending on the game. Examples: On Sword Fighting tournement, well it's in the name...you sword fight, and if you win you receive IN GAME (they are not valid out side of this game) points. You can spend the points on swords, to give yourself a better chance of winning. However, on Tycoons you receive a certain ammount of points per minute (or every few seconds, depends on how the creator made it), and you have to buy feature 1 by 1 until you have the entire building (so on Pizza Factory Tycoon you'd have to buy a building, and machines).

Another Feature of ROBLOX is the Catalog. In the catalog you are able to buy hats, gears, shirts, pants, t-shirts, faces, heads, and bodies for your avatar. ROBLOX includes two currency, 'Tix' and 'Robux'. Robux is worth alot more than tix, normally for about 10-15 tix would get you 1 Robux.


Every user on ROBLOX has there own profile. Profiles show your blurb (about you in under 1000 characters), your avatar, your games, your status (best friends only), your roblox badges, your user made badges, your friends, your favourites, groups that you have joined, and your items.

ROBLOX groups are one of my favourite ROBLOX features. Each Builders Club member ($5.00 per month) is able to create a group for 100 robux, and buy up to 17 Ranks for the price of 25 robux per rank. Groups can be anything from fan clubs to war clans. Alot of ROBLOX groups are war clans, and thanks to ROBLOX Features, war between clans can be very fun! Every clan has a fort that they built, and the clan patrols it. I have seen some amazing forts! The detail they put into is WOW. Users are able to create weapons, which the clans fight with.



Overall ROBLOX is a badly moderated site, with great features. Moderation, and exploitation are my only complaints. The Moderators are terrible, you get 7 day banned for saying 'hi'... exploitation isn't much of a problem anymore, but occassionaly 1/20 you will go onto an exploited server. ROBLOX is a great site, where you can learn alot. I advice playing it, but beware, it's VERY addictive...


A typical Social Meeps party!

Today I will be reviewing 'Social Meeps'.

Social Meeps is a new game, created by Alexnewtron. The game doesn't have MANY features, but they are working hard to update it. It hasn't been around for long so the site only has about 8,000 members, but they're growing quickly. 

On Social Meeps, there is a main game, located by clicking 'play'. There is a pizza place, disco, minigame building, and a beach. Unlike alot of sites, Social Meeps is 2D, and walking is like rolling. This is a strange, but original feature. As you may see in that picture, a few people are slightly rotated; they are walking.

The Catalog on Social Meeps is updated reguarly, with many 'limiteds' (an idea they borrowed from roblox) come out every few days. I, however, advice Seth (the hat maker) to stop making hats that were made on ROBLOX.com; they'll probably sue you. 

Overall Social Meeps is a un professional game, on which you roll around and buy copied hats. Then get IP Banned with no explanation. I would of added pictures, but I got IP Banned...
