For anyone having problems running Hellgate: London (or other power craving game) there is a competition up on the Unofficial Hellgate: London Site to win one of two new PNY 8800 GTX graphics cards.
"Over the next two weeks we'll be running a competition where two lucky winners will be souping up their system with a PNY 8800 GTX 768Mb graphics card. We thought it would be fun and beneficial for everyone (even those not entering the competition) if we focused the competition on Hellgate information. What you can do to be in with a chance of winning is simply contribute. The contributions can be news posts, movies or guides."
Before Flagship Studios, there was Blizzard North. Originally known as Condor, the Redwood-based studio was acquired in 1997 by Blizzard Entertainment. At the time, Blizzard North was hard at work on the development of the game that would be the cornerstone of everything that came after: Diablo.
IGN : Remember Hellgate: London? The dark fantasy action role-playing game came out in 2007 for PC, a year before developer Flagship Studios went bankrupt. Since then, various free-to-play and online revivals have come and gone. Now, 17 years after the release of Hellgate: London, it’s back.
I remember some friends and I all bought Hellgate: London day one because it was made by some original Diablo devs. We had fun playing it, good memories.
PC Invasion: Hellgate: London is back on Steam, but it's not what you expect it to be. It's a single-player game in the vein of Asian MMOs.
