ROBLOX on Macs?
Recently Telamon tweeted saying there was a Mac Alpha on the ROBLOX sitetest. I can only presume this means the Mac PC's made by Apple. If the ROBLOX team are getting close to bringing the game out for Macs, then it is brilliant News! For years they have been trying to get them to work on Macs and now maybe it will happen! This will benefit...

New shadows!
As some of you may know, the ROBLOX team have been working on ambient shadows for around two weeks now and they have finally released them to the full site. This feature favours the slightly better graphics card (medium-high) and will turn them selves off if the frame rate goes below 30. This will reduce lagg and decide whether your PC can handle the new graphics. I think the new shadows are a good update and desserve a lot of...

An Elegant Blade!
This new piece of gear is Limited U and 1000 copies were sold. This gear has a mixed reception amongst the ROBLOX community. It took a while to sell out but surprisingly the price did not drop below 1800. The prices are now at a stand still, and most sellers are selling it for a modest price of 2000 R$. So you may ask, what's so good about...

The Roblox staff have decided to make a new gear; The Tomahawk. The Tomahawk was originally created by cave men using peaces of rock, wood and string.

This new feature will allow users to trade items such as hats between themselves allowing a secure way of making sure you don't get scammed and that your item doesn't get sniped. This will revolutionise limited item selling and will improve the system even further. This is assured to be a really popular update and...

Red Erikson's lament
This is a hat that came out at the weekend, it is a BC Limited U item. The original price of the hat was R$600, once it sold out it's price rised gradually and is now worth more than 3K so there was a lot of profit there. I don't think the prices will stop rising for a while so I suggest, if you have the money spot a lower price and buy it....

Interiew with Rob498
Q1) What do you think about the latest updates (BC games)? Are they logical? And futher back updates like BC gear and Hats?
A1)Well, in my opinion, I see what the admins are doing. Bringing the place traffic award for BC'ers up to 2/3 tickets encourages people to buy BC to support the site and themselves in real life. Same goes for the...

Inside the 16 bit however was two items, an 8 bit Santa hat (Predictable) and Santa's grappling hook ge...
