Another Half-Life thief...

PassThePress.com has posted information from a "reliable source" that a Chinese hacker has compromised Flagship Studios' network and stolen a copy of Hellgate: London's source code and is looking to sell it. This news has just broken. As of this time, all that is publically available from Flagship Studios is the following statement from Bill Roper:

    "We've heard the same rumors. Obviously this is of concern to us and we've been looking into it, but we haven't been able to ascertain any further information to substantiate those rumors."

Additionally, 1UP.com has received word of the story and Ferrago.com has commented on 1UP's article on the story. Please note: take what these articles (and this news post) say with a grain of salt as most of it is based on unsubstantiated facts and/or speculation. Naturally, references to Valve's Half-Life 2 (which had its source code stolen before release) round out both pieces.

Stay with Hellgate Guru for updates as they become available.
