Funcom puts on a party with actors and fire and belly-dancers and free drink. It also filmed it rather professionally.

With over 700, 000 copies being shipped on launch day, Conan has already compiled a healthy user-base. But will it be a winner in a hugely competitive field which is claiming some rather famous scalps at the moment? Only you can decide. Well. You the public, not only you specifically, that's unnecessarily melodramatic.

You know what, I bet this is exactly what Emily Pankhurst had in mind when she chained herself to those railings. Less oppression, more swords and rhino riding. You go girls.

We like Erling. He's what you might call idiosyncratic. He's also really rocking that tweed jacket/black turtle neck combo, and we have nothing but love for that.

With pre-order numbers rising fast and the open beta almost upon us, we've been oiling up our armoured leather thongs and burnishing our out-sized pauldrons with unremitting glee. One of the things which has been fuelling our fever most is the promise of previously unseen PVP features, so this dev diary on that very subject has got us pretty rigid.

Creating a believable world is much more than a case of stitching a few generically designed areas together. Funcom are past masters of the art, so can they do it again?

Hyboria is an Epic sort of place, full of stunning vistas (no pun intended) and people of import and destiny. It's no surprise that the bods at Funcom should want to package a few of them together for your viewing pleasure.

Alongside the announcement that Conan will be delayed until May, Eidos has released a couple of videos to assuage the chagrin of any interested parties. This is the first: a quick run-down of the engine's capabilities which seems quite familiar...

Other than the obvious Tolkien behemoth, there aren't many fantasy worlds with a heritage as rich as Conan's. 70 years of myth-weaving, lore-soaked tales has given Hyboria a depth which most franchises can only dream of. Now you can be part of it all.

This gruesome foray into the Hyborian hinterlands turns up some rather unpleasant sights. You know, skinless ogres, rivers of blood, Mad Martigan style chaps in cages, usual stuff.

Frostswamp, a name clearly not chosen by the board of Hyborian tourism. Appropriately enough, it's not really a place you'd want to park the caravan for a bank holiday weekend. Those giant reptilian gits would be straight off with your badminton set.
