Hellgate at 8.85 Hype?

Yech, first time I saw GW2 get knocked out of the number one position in a very long time.  Of course it will not last long but it's amazing that it even occured at all.

    Actually I wonder how it jumped all the other mmos, not only GW2 in a night...

    he was not even in the top yesterday

    Possibly the hype meter was resurrected from it's original release. There was a lot of buzz about the game before it came out so may explain it

    Probably because it only has about 20 or so votes.  Whereas the rest of the top ten have hundreds or thousands.

    The hype meter omn this site is essentially broken, it doesn't work for squat.

    I recall that a released F2P-game once managed to get a rating of 10.14 on this site. Since that moment I started to ignore sudden changes in the rating meters.

    It works fine.

    "8.90

    Based on 21 total votes."

    There's your answer.  No worries though, as plenty of zealous game fans (most notably those from the former top three entries) are already on their way to vote this back into the pit where it came from.

      It's very easy to 'game' the hype meter, and unfortunately it happens.

    Where did it come from if it only had 20 'hypes'?

    Oh dear, didn't know it was that bad, really. Did they previously drop a dynamic event on your doorstep? Maybe teleport a brick through your window? V_V

    They used one of those awesome maps that teleports you to the area.  Got right past the burglar alarm.

    dont know if there is any pvp in this game since it is hard to get any meaningfull video aside from the low leve!@#$#^#%$&

    but the fact this game will be pretty much global(asia aside)means there is potential for a lot of player but i bet my 2 cent that not many not in usa know hellgate is coming back in a global format

    HG was and still is one of the best games ever made so I'm not surprised. Though with it's current 6.59 rating I can assure you the meter is broken.

    As sure as the sun rises, there will be PVP arenas.

    Wow, once the word got out how high up the hype meter this game got, it got swamped by downgraders.  I'm actually impressed at how swiftly other games fans pounced.
