Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer Goes Gold

Maximus from the Neverwinter Vault brings news from this week's press event at Obsidian Entertainment's headquarters that both the US and European versions of Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer have officially gone gold.

I was actually invited to that press event, but couldn't afford to go. Why can't plane tickets and hotel rooms be cheap?
