I've been wanting to get my hands on Hellgate: London for a long time now and I finally got my beta key. It was sitting in my Hotmail account for 3 days in the Junk Mail folder. Considering I rarely check my Hotmail account, I was lucky have got it out of the Junk area and it pays to follow up with people if you don't get something you were expecting in a few days.

Anyways, so I create an account and download the client which is about 4 Gigs in size. Halfway through one of my friends sends me a link to the Hellgate forums stating the servers will be down for at least the night. GAH! I just don't think Flagship wants me to play the game. The servers should be up today so maybe, just maybe i can get in a few hours with the game.

Good thing I had Team Fortress 2 to keep my busy last night.
