This is sad, of course, but has anyone seen the humor in their name "Flagship"? They really over estimated on that one. If they are the Flagship of PC gaming, we are doomed. And yes, I think Hellgate was a disgrace. Some one should buy the rights to the E3 CG movies and make a real game from those. No idea what Mythos is or could have been, and after Hellgate, don't really much care.

Well this is just shitty.

Here's hoping someone swoops in to buy and save Mythos.

I'm looking at you, Valve.

Please? :(

Have they fixed the 'bug' that didn't allow people to unsubscribe from Hellgate yet?

Son of a bitch. I met those cats back in October. The Mythos team was in Seattle and separate from the Hellgate guys in California. Something like 10 dudes in a tiny apartment office busting their asses to make a cool game. Too bad it didn't pan out.

I hope that team can find someplace new to land and make an even better monster crushing game. Mythos was a smart evolution of all the cool stuff in Fate, I look forward to the next step.
