2:20AM Mike Fahey | Cheyenne Mountain Entertainment has been industriously tooling away in their secret underground bunker to bring us an MMORPG based off of the hit television show Stargate: SG-1. Originally announced back in
January 2006, MMO supersite TenTonHammer reports that the game is now scheduled for a fourth quarter 2008 release. From Kevin Balentine, Cheyenne’s senior marketing manager:
“We’ve got a playable version of the game inside of our building. I’m not prepared to release our beta schedule yet, but I can say that we’re going to be releasing the game in the fourth quarter of next year. You can do the math and figure out when our beta program will be.”
But math is hard! Tell you what, you guys send us a press release when the beta program info is available, and we’ll go back to geeking out over the possibilities of an MMO with the potential to span an entire universe.

2:15PM Logan Booker | You may remember some time ago that Australian developer Perception was working on a game based on the Stargate SG-1 franchise. The title was to be published by JoWood.
However, in late 2005, JoWood decided to pull the plug. According to the publisher, it was unhappy with both the quality and speed of Perception’s work. Perception quickly filed charges of defamation against Albert Seidl, the company’s CEO. As far as I’m aware, those proceedings are ongoing.
Now Perception is after damages, in the order of €8 million. Going by the official statement from Perception, if it wins the case, the payout could destroy JoWood.
Press release after the jump.
