Vanguard free for now, for past account-holders [update]
Update: Warcry and SOE are hosting an IRC chat with developers from Vanguard tonight, giving players a chance to ask them some questions. Go here for the full details, and we will post a summary of the event later in the day.
This may not be quite as good as a free lunch, but if you've had a Vanguard account in the past, Sony Online Entertainment is willing to foot the bill between the 19th of December and the 17th of January for you to try the game out again. Just to re-emphasize -- you need to have had an account for the game beforehand.
The news comes from Vanguard Vault, and they picked it up from SOE's podcast. If you do choose to get back into Vanguard, you'll be able to take part in some of the holiday festivities that have been introduced in Game Update 3, as well as other updates that this patch has brought, which includes some raid content.
If you have for some reason uninstalled the game already, you can download it again here.
[Thanks, sevenwind]
