You all remember that interesting sci-fi horror game a few years back called Hellgate: London? You also remember how it and the studio (Flagship) was abruptly shut down and all services stopped? I am sure there are a few of you out there that have search for emulators or found your dusty disks at the bottom of a stack somewhere and played the single player, right? Well it is back!
That's right ladies and gentlemen. Hellgate is back from T3 Entertainment and poised to be as highly addictive and fun as it was back when. If you have interest in playing in the beta, check out http://hellgate.t3fun.com for more information and email me, Nimbis[a]betawatcher.com, I'll be looking for a few to run and gun with! |

Ages of Athiria Cancelled |
DarkRaven
Editor
|
6/8/2010 2:08:00 PM
Moved Ages of Athiria to Cancelled due to the news post on the official site
quote:
The bottom line is that I was not able to secure funding for the game. I've exhausted my network of contacts. I was hoping that I would never have to write this post but we've always tried to maintain a realistic transparency to the game's status with our fans. It was important to us that you always knew exactly where we stood. A couple of times during the process, I though we were closer to making Ages of Athiria a reality than we really were. I hope that during those times, we did not mislead anyone into thinking that funding was soon to come. Ages of Athiria is a good game design. I believe that with all of my heart and experience but funding isn't going to happen and as such Ages of Athiria will not be built in the near future. |

I've added 2 new games to the database.
Aika is a new RvR type MMO from gPotato. They are in closed beta sign-up at this point. It looks like it will eventually be a "free to play with an item mall" style game.
Grecca is a hardcore, no safe spot PvP game that is in the pre-beta stage. There aren't many details available on this one yet, and the website is pretty bare bones.
Greeca will be holding a live combat test this Sunday I believe, (nov. 1st) for all members of grecca forums. |

9/1/2009 1:03:00 AM
Just letting you guys know, today is the official "early start" launch of Dungeons & Dragons Online: Eberron Unlimited for all you beta participants and V.I.P. account holders to get in the game eight days before the rest of the free accounts. It will give you a cool opportunity to get in on the new servers and start establishing a name for yourself and the server economy (some of you may know, the very beginning is the most pivotal point).
So be sure to get in on it, I will make a note here as to which server and character name I will be playing under for the rest of you to join in during the head start or after the free accounts go live. |
