of the Rings Online and Star Wars Galaxies, but flying under many hardcore gamers’ radar is another MMO, one whose community is 100 million strong and still growing. Oh, and it’s shedding, too.

were certain in life: birth, death and taxes. Good ol’ Ben Franklin obviously lived long ago, because nowadays he’d have to add one more to his list: Jackie Chan will kick butt (as will Chuck Norris). Jackie Chan is both comic genius and martial-arts master, but his latest outing takes a bit of a detour from his usual gang-driven content. In Robin B Hood, Jackie Chan plays a babysitter.
