Diablo III to Include Increased Hacking, Improved Slashing
I doubt many of you come to Topless Robot for your hard-hitting PC game coverage, but even I noticed that Blizzard announced Diablo III this weekend, and that buzzing sound you hear is the hordes of computer nerds simultaneously reaching orgasm. GameTrailers has about a million videos of the game, but none more indicate of the game that this 19-minute gameplay demonstrating full of hacking, slashing, more hacking, pretty graphics, a bit more slashing, and a terrible voiceover explaining what’s going on.
I’m not a PC guy, but everyone knows this is just Gauntlet, right? All gussied up? I’m not insulting it, Gauntlet‘s a great game. I just don’t know if the kids today are aware.
