    Runescape is a very popular browser based 3D fantasy game and is a modern classic fantasy MMORPG, having been around in some form since 2001. The game takes place in the divided land of Gielinor. Players choose their race, class, and advance through quests and monster hunting. While there is an overarching storyline, RuneScape is very non-linear. There are opportunities for collaboration as well as PvP. Minigames exist for advancing skills. At first the game comes off as being simple but with time its complex gameplay becomes apparent giving way to endless hours of gaming. The fact that it can be so engaging while being easily accessed through a browser has proven to be the key to Runescape's success.
    RuneScape's new High Detail version is a massive graphical improvement to the game. The texturing of the world, the lights and their resulting shadows, the new website; have all been improved so that RuneScape can reach a new level in terms of presentation. Although RuneScape's roots are old, the game has had several incarnations, with each new version replacing the old. The latest, RuneScape HD, was released in 2008, and is a major overhaul. While the basic game is free to download and play, it is limited, and a subscription will net a player more frequent (and exclusive) content updates, a player home, the ability to play full screen (free users are limited to a windowed client), and more advantages.
    In the olden days of Runescape, there were times when I used to chat over the phone with my friend as we ganged up on people and such. Well apparently, all of that has changed. Runescape's PvP system has changed greatly over the years in more ways than one. While that may be true, it is merely all in the past, and I am sure people are wondering about the current state of Runescape PvP. Well fear not, for I have spent a great amount of time exploring the newfound PvP system.
    Originally set in a fixed-size window, Runescape has updated their game's graphics over the years to include alternate camera angles, realistic water, and moving shadows. While this java-based browser game remains limited in its visual quality, Jagex has continuously pushed the capabilities of the Java engine to deliver the most attractive game possible. This includes two major updates to the graphics engine within the last year alone.
