More Hellgate chuckles

Quality journalism continues to flourish after the apocalypse

Above: Quality journalism continues to flourish after the apocalypse

I continue to be impressed by the attention to detail that goes into Hellgate: London. Tonight, while wandering through one of the many tunnels connecting one underground station to another, I happened to glance down at the ground and found myself staring at a copy of the Daily Mirror. Not only is it an extremely accurate replica of that oh-so-respectable publication, they have also placed it in the condition and location in which it is most likely to be found in real life: in a sodden heap on the floor of a dank subway station, probably covered in piss stains.

A new patch was released for the game yesterday, by the way, and I’m happy to report that stability seems to have been improved substantially. I played for several hours this evening, and, while I did get one “Out of memory” error, bumping me back to the desktop, I’ve yet to experience a complete system freeze. Keep it up, guys, and you may have a complete game before too long. The patch notes are available here.
