The latest hero trailer for Diablo 3 has been released, and this time it is the turn of the maniacally laughing wizard. She seems slightly unhinged, but only because she giggles when she’s using a giant laser of death to burn things. She also finds exploding frozen people into meaty chunks funny. Admittedly she looks [...]

According to the magnificently CGI’ed TV advert for Diablo 3, evil is back. Even Blizzard’s harshest critics have to concede that their cinematic adverts always pack a punch, and this one is no exception. It makes me want the game even more than I already did, and given I really want it, it’s done its [...]

With all the hype surrounding the imminent release of Diablo 3 (May 15th in case you’ve been living in a cave), you could say that Runic Games scheduled summer release of Torchlight II, a diabloesque game, has flown somewhat under the radar. Well no longer, you can find Torchlight II available for pre-order through two [...]

I loved the Necromancer in Diablo 2. So logically I was sad when they announced he wouldn’t return and a Witch Doctor would take his place.

The publisher Deep Silver has however, promised the console players extra content in the form of “The [...]

I’m slightly ashamed to admit that The Witcher passed me by. I heard good things about it, but never really felt all that compelled to play it. From what I understand, the storyline is very good, and the game itself isn’t bad either. For some reason though, I just never really felt compelled to give [...]

Celebrate, mortals, for the mighty Blizzard have deemed you worthy of testing their own chosen son this weekend: We’re pleased to announce the Diablo III open beta weekend, which offers open access to all players with a valid Battle.net account! Beginning this Friday everyone is invited to log in and help us put the game [...]

Monks as we know them tend to be brown habit wearing, all day praying, bald headed chaps who congregate in churches and sing hymns. I suspect that the Monk in Diablo 3 did not ever do that. Ever. It’s more likely that he spent several years beating the shit out of people in preparation for [...]

Which makes it possibly the most Witchery game ever released. The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition patch is now out, and you can install it whenever you choose, although I suggest doing so right now. My pre-load worked a treat, and as such I am as happy as a Witcher amongst unearthly monsters, but there have [...]
