Every now and then I get some pretty snazzy e-mails from Alienware and today was one of those days. (According to my user profile and how often I get these keys they send me, the last one was back in July… yeah, July) But again, today was one of those days. One of the newer MMOs, Rift, has been growing pretty rapidly and seems to be holding its own in the market. I think Age of Conan, FF XIV and Warhammer all died after being out for as long as Rift has.

If you’ve been wanting to try the game out but missed the beta phases, they only had like, 12, but if you still manage to let those slip by you. Alienware is giving away 7-day Trial Keys for their Alienware Arena members. (It’s nothing major, you sign up, get a key, takes a few minutes) So if you’ve been wanting to give this game a try, I would recommend grabbing a key before they are gone. I just grabbed one and they had a little over 8,000 left. It’s odd that in internet terms, that’s a really small number.
