The Diablo 3 open beta starts TONIGHT, download the client now: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/4963739/Di...-4_19_2012#blog

22% done..

I managed to avoid DIABLO and WORLD OF WARCRAFT and I gotta say I think I"ll continue to avoid them at this point. I'm a big fan of great games, but I've seen folks get disturbingly involved in these two particular titles. They must contain GAMING CRACK.

WoW was crack for sure!

It all comes down to self control. I can enjoy video games and not let it wreck my free time, surely you guys aren't that vulnerable?

D3 beta was fun, suprised it ran okay on my ancient PC Won't be buying it, though.

I will, but I'm prepared for a let done. I actually lent my 360 to a friend a few months ago and my ps3 is unplugged. Nothing looks remotely good for either system any time soon.

I'm sure people will enjoy it, it just wasn't quite my thing. No idea about console releases anymore, sold my 360 ages ago

Last game that got me hooked was DC universe online on PS3. Only played for a couple months since there wasn't enough content to get me hooked longer, and I'm glad I quit.

MMORPGs are like crack to me.

DC universe online, heh? Never played it, but I heard it flopped and is now F2P.

Right. No surprise there, they couldn't keep up with enough new content, and that's death for those kind of games.

Anone played RAGE on XBOX 360 or PC? It looks amazing from the bits I've seen.

Yeah, it's a good game - I saw it on sale for $10 2 weeks ago, on GameFly, so I'd wait for another sale and nab it. For that price, you can't lose!

I always recommend watching some gameplay on youtube, as many people do walkthroughs these days, so you can watch the first 30 min of the game, see what you think

[Todd Simpson]

Wow that's cheap! IT'S 3 DVDs! It must be just huge. I gotta say sounds like a plan. The youtube clips look just amazing. They evidently were using this to show their new game engine. I honestly can't believe something this impressive in terms of visuals/graphics didn't make more of a splash. The game engine look's astounding. I looked it up and it's their show piece of what the engine can do. It's got to be the best looking xbox 360 game I've ever seen.

WOLFENSTEIN: THE NEW BLOOD

Really impressed with the game WOLFENSTEIN: THE NEW BLOOD. The graphics are killer, the WWII storyline is quite spiff, there are monsters and evil bits that get sorted with firepower.

Worth a Rental and Liked it so much I bough it. Anyone else played it?

Anyone played DEADPOOL? Worth a rental You can play through it in a couple nights over a weekend and it's a nice distraction. Nothing to serious, lots of humor and shooting stuff.

[fzalfa]

I have played on my pc theses days, because Xbox one and 360 are always occupied by my older.

so i have (re) discover Half life 2 prospekt, project CARS (no alfa romeo, they sukxs) and Aliens Colonial Marines

i have a lot of fun with HL2 and CARS

I did download BROFORCE for free and it's a hoot A side scroller that looks like it's 20 years old but still wads of old school fun I tried THE DIVISION from Tom Clancy but it seems very repetitive. Go to X location, kill everytone, take something, bring it to base, rinse, repeat.

I did like JUST CAUSE 3 and am looking forward to the expansion packs. It's sort of like grand theft auto (wihch I never got into) in that it's a big world with missions. But you can fly in your "squirel wing suit" and do crazy stunts and blow stuff up which is hard not to enjoy You can hop in a tank and just go marauding. Very cathartic game.
