This news fits to the decisions of Flagship and EA for the European market in the last months. They also made a deal with ebgames/gamestop, so German Hellgate fans can only buy a pre-order pack includig the option for a lifetime subscription at Gamestop. Sadly most of the fans donīt have a gamestop branch nearby, and this "intelligent people" donīt offer a way to buy online. You have to appear in person at Gamestop…

A few days ago we started an open letter with other German Hellgate fansites about this very bad decisions - the letter was sent to EA, Flagship and all print media and is published at many German speaking fansites.
