This was apparently sent yesterday, but I didn’t get around to opening it until this morning,

Wow . . . continued support until the January 2009 server shutdown. I’ll call them up right away and see if I can get my new video card to work with the game. That e-mail pretty much sums up the entire Hellgate: London experience for those of us who got suckered into buying it (but of course we’ll still have to hear all the idiot developers claim it is piracy that is killing the PC as a gaming platform).
