A comment by a Blizzard representative, who is rarely seen posting on the World of Warcraft forums, has sparked excitement upon fans.

“Enoyls” stated he is a regular forum poster mostly when games such as Starcraft 2 are close to release, or during the closed beta stage of new games in development by Blizzard Entertainment.

Enoyls: Yes, I’m pretty active during betas on the forums. During Starcraft, War3 and WOW I was pretty active gathering feedback, informing people about changes and explaining new features and philsophy. I don’t post on the WOW forums much anymore because Tigole and Kalgan are now the lead designers on WOW. While I’m involved with all the games here at Blizzard, I’m focus the most on the games closest to release like Starcraft 2.

Fans were left pondering if his presence and comment were omen of a Starcraft 2 beta announcement not too far in the future.

One of the writers at Aeropause installed his brand new copy of Hellgate: London, only to be greeted by the SecuROM message telling him of an Original Disc error.

nce again, copy protection hurts the legal user and not the pirate.

“Well, I went against my better judgment. I accepted the EULA. I laughed in the face of draconian copy protection schemes.

And they laughed right back at me.

I suspect that, like Joe and I discussed on the Aeropodcast, this is most likely due to having “virtual drive” software on my machine. Despite the fact that I use it for legitimate means, such as beta-testing development software, EA and Flagship have decided that I cannot play their game.”

Are you perhaps willing to help out making The Settlers™ Rise of an Empire, the best Settlers game ever?

The only thing I sometimes find a bit annoying with settler is that each Settler figure has his or her own daily routine, with a range of different actions and behaviours that can be observed at all times, and they are not so structured.
But we can now do something about it, yeah let’s make The Settlers™ Rise of an Empire, the best Settlers game ever …
You know what it is right? A strategy game where players build lively, bustling towns in a medieval world. The ultimate objective of the game is to expand your empire and become a legendary ruler.

According to Worthplaying.com Flagship studios now have open their beta accounts for ‘Mythos’.
Mythos is an online, action RPG that is free to download and free to play. Flagship announced that the closed beta test is now open, and people interested in joining can click here.

I personally hope that since most of the Flagship studio personnel is from formal Blizzard north that Mythos could be the game that we all sure long for (Diablo III) but judging by the pictures it doesn’t seem like that

London. Mythos will be digitally distributed in North America and Europe in 2007
