FiringSquad.com Reports On EA Fall 2007 Press Event
Hellgate: London was one of the prominent PC titles featured at Electronic Arts’ Fall 2007 Press Event. Here is what gaming news site FiringSquad.com had to say about the event and the game.
Electronic Arts held a massive press event on Wednesday at their Redwood Shores campus as they showed off all of their games that are due out this fall and early into 2008. In fact there was so much to see during our brief few hours at the show that we really only spent a brief time with each game that we were interested to see.

Flagship Studios’s long awaited action-RPG is less than two months away from release. The first person oriented game has been previewed to death (and we should be able to go into more detail when we get our hands on the promised beta version) but Flagship’s head Bill Roper still managed to surprise us with a couple of cool upcoming features. One was footage of a massive boss battle with a character that is 30 stories tall and looks like Godzilla with massive stone piledrivers for legs. You have to defeat the boss by leading it to fixed turrets that shrink the monster down to (almost) your size but then he fires fireballs and generates small minion creatures at you as well.

To quote Lee Dotson, you never know what the BOA (Beast Of Abaddon) will do.
