Dev Blog: The San Francisco Press Preview
August 27, 2008 - It's been a while since my first Dev blog, but not because of a lack of things to talk about. Things behind the scenes have simply been that busy getting Aion ready for this week's Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle, last week's Games Convention in Leipzig. There will be loads of information and recaps coming from these two events; there is a different event that I want to share some news about.

Kotaku's Hands-On Preview of Aion
August 14, 2008 - Kotaku was one of the first members of the press to get a hands-on look at Aion today and they were left extremely impressed. Here's what they had to say in the preview: "But when I sat my skeptical self down for some hands-on time with NCsoft's Aion: Tower of Eternity, I was surprised to find that I actually wanted to keep playing when it was time to pack up and go." Kotaku also published a bunch of new screenshots to back up their praise.
