    Hehehe, think of it as a darker toned Kingdom Hearts. Creator of KH is the same for this game and the production values are over the roof. In a way it sort of reminds me of Last Story, battle system wise...but ONLY in a minor respect...

    This is the last time they're using the White Engine. But, for this project, they are incorporating a studio for added lighting graphics to give it a more realistic approach. Besides, better this than relying on the Unreal Engine for every generation.

    i never got into diablo..but i loved Warhammer II dawn of war, which is an action RPG...but it's squad based so you control a small group of troops. The graphics were very good and the chatter among your troops and foes was lively and very Roman-esque...comical site indeed

    Hearing your men say 'Die Heretic! or 'For the Emperor!' never got old

    I'd imagine Diablo III would be more fun if you play it Co-Op with a few other players tho

    It's a tactical roleplaying, strategy game. :smt081

    Not the same as an action-RPG (Kingdom Hearts, Rogue Galaxy, etc...)

    My son has been playing the shit out of it since it came out. Other than the connection problems, he's enjoying it and said it was worth the 10 year wait.

    Hmm

    My kind of guy

    If he's playing with good sets of people I can imagine him having a blast

    I love dungeon questing with groups in other RPGs

    Rolling a random group and relying on strangers to win battles is fun

    Street Fighter 25th anniversary bundle. $150 for PS3 & Xbox360

    Cant believe it's been 25 years since Street Fighter came out. I was never that good on the original Street Fighter. But I was a Street Fighter II fiend back in the day. We used to play in make-shift tournaments at the local 7/11. I was probably the third best kid in the neighborhood. I would play as Ken, Ryu and Guile. When playing Ryu, my cross over kick, strong punch, leg sweep combo was unstoppable. Man those were the days. :smile:

    I'm sure you would beat me if we played, my reflexes aren't what they once were and the game has gotten too fast. I tried playing Street Fighter 4 online and I lost 10 out of 12 matches, so I quit. It is a younger and/or faster gamers genre now.

    Yeah, he loves 'em and enjoys that about 'em too. He's also been talking my ear off about it and wanting me to come look at different things he comes across while he's playing, which isn't much fun for me, lol. I did get a kick out of what he named himself though...BruceLee. lol

    i dunno if my current system can handle it..but i shoulda bought that instead of Starhawk

    i went on a binge and bought UFC undisputed 3, Gran Turismo 5, Starhawk and Battlefield 3 for my PS3

    While the other games are fun, Starhawk is 'meh'

    i think that 60 dollars woulda been better spent on a PC game, especially since I spend most of my spare time sitting at it

    Kind of a slower paced episode. The B-story of the The Blue Beetle looking for his friend humanizes the show, in a good way. The main story of the Girl Squad was kinda dull, in my opinion.

    Cloak and Dagger are an interesting concept, Two Young people attached by fate and complimentary super powers. Cloak (Black guy) has "darkness" and teleportation powers. Dagger (White girl) has "light" and energy powers.

    They seem like a couple right? In the continuity of the comics, they have stated several times how they care for each other, and how nobody understands them but each other. However, Marvel Comics has been hesitant to make them an official couple for some reason. Maybe now that they are having a Gay married couple (Northstar & some dude) and there is already a official IR couple (Luke Cage & Jessica Jones) Marvel will make these two officially an Item.
