WAR Fiction – A Fistful of Choppas: Chapter 3
July 27th, 2009 
Faim
Wait! Read Chapter Two first!
The pounding of Ghurlak’s flat feet along the canyon floor sounded like the beat of a war-drum as the runty Orc came thundering down the mountain towards Bagrash Runtchucka’s cave. The choppas he’d looted after the fight with the stuntie war party felt good in his gnarled hands; Ghurlak slashed at the air as he ran, exulting at the hungry, whickering sound they made. He hacked at the scraggly trees growing from the canyon walls, just to feel the solid thunk of impact and hear the splintering of wood as the crude weapons sheared through trunk and limb. When the rock walls pressed close he swiped at them as well, striking arcs of orange sparks from the stone. By the time he reached the fire-lit cavern at the feet of Black Crag, the edges of the iron blades were jagged and bright.

Aion previews all over the web
July 24th, 2009 Faim It’s not a big surprise that Aion previews can be found all over the internet now that a broader audience is able to look at it during our closed beta events. Loyal fans of Aion who are following the development of the game for a while now will be glad that the feedback from our players and press shows that it was worth the wait.
Let’s see what IGN, Zam and IncGamers have to say:
IGN
” … with those visuals, that flight and the remarkably powerful character creator, it’s a far more epic and lavish experience than we’ve seen to date”
ZAM
“Interestingly enough, however, despite the fact that I did go into this with fairly (ok, extremely) high expectations, Aion was impressive enough that I could really understand what all of this hype was about.”
IncGamers
“I thought the class selection screen was impressive, but I was blown away by this stage. The face that greets you as you begin to design your character is uncannily realistic.”
