Cryptic Studios have placed a clock on their homepage… But a countdown to what exactly?..

Well, the artwork the clock is sat on top of appears to be an old section of Star Trek Online concept art…

Still no actual confirmation who the STO developer is after Perpetual imploded, but the rumours started flying almost iimmediately that Cryptic had got the license. I guess we’ll see on the 28th of July…

Some really sad news today.

Don S. Davis who played Major General George Hammond on Stargate passed away yesterday from a heart attack.

Don played General Hammond for 7 years before departing the show in 2003 due to a medical condition. He did however make a number of guest appearances in SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis over the following years, most recently reprising the role for the Stargate: Continuum movie.

Gateworld.net has a touching obituary.

Don’s family are asking for people to make a donation to the American Heart Association if they wish to do something in in Don’s memory.

Thank you Don for your wonderful years of bringing one of our favourite Stargate characters to the screen.

Rest in Peace.
