Only 3 more days to go until those that pre-ordered Warhammer Online in the US or bought the pre-order box in the EU will be able to download the game client and join the open beta.

Tomorrow morning the site http://www.war-europe.com will re-open and you can enter your beta codes and reserve a character name. Guess now Jeff isn't around "GameSpotting" is up for grabs J

Might have to dump the Football manager live beta to give this game the time and attention it deserves…

HMV seem to be the only place in Europe that still has Collector's Edition boxes and the staff don't know it. Pre-ordered mine so they better not unknowingly sell my box to someone else.

A few of us were dying to find out the server and character name of that IGN live wire presenter to and beat the hell out of her online (she's so annoying) but turns out EA are dumping EU players on GOA so there will be separate servers, support and no EU players teaming up or battling against US players.

With Spore (sept), WAR (sept), Farcry 2 (Oct), Starcraft II (Nov - maybe) coming out this year I'm taking the whole of December off to get my game on. Kind of glad Stargate Worlds slipped to 2009 – give me some time to get my teeth in to WAR. Star Wars: The Force Unleased (SWTFU) is listed as a Sept release on GameSpot and Game.co.uk but I seriously doubt it will be out until Xmas or 2009 Play.com have already removed it from their site.
