Heh, top down is the only thing t hose games have in common with diablo. One is a hack n slash no dialogue tree that jumps right in the action and the other one is a turn based rpg with massive dialogue. Not hating on either game but they are nothing alike. Space Siege was god awful. I got bored playing the demo!!! Shadowgrounds was pretty good. Borderlands will be a First person shooter/hack n slash hybrid with a heavy emphasis on loot.
Well...the guy who said Fallout was on the right track...but on a completely different train. Sadly, your best bet for a 'modern'-style Diablo-esque game would be a console game (it was actually for the original Xbox) called Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel. However, if I remember correctly, the game was pretty average as far as hack-n-slash action 'RPGs' went.

The only recent PC game I can think of is Hell gate London, though all of you can play now is the single player, the online servers have been shut down. Still a fun single player experience, though I would check out the demo first. If you have a 360, then I would definitely check out Too Human. Great little game with Norse mythology mixed with cybernetics.

Get the flying space monkeys on standby! It's the only way we can retaliate against aliens throwing crap around.
Seriously, though, you're best shot might be Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. Granted, it's not exactly 'modern' as in real-world...but you definitely get guns (if you play as Deadpool, Blade, and/or Cable) and fight guys with modern/comic-book-future weapons.
I know Space Siege is Top down Action RPG but its sci-fi not modern, still has guns though.

i will try this it doesnt' loo so bad.=D thx :) it was pretty mediocre, but not downright bad. If you can find it cheap, then it's the closest you'll get to a Modern Diablo.

you can get the alien shooter demos here off gamespot... all of them are miles of fun.. you would need to be crazy to miss them even if they are demos. you get full access to survival mode which is an alternate modes of play in which you try and stay alive through hordes of enemies.
[QUOTE="tony2077ca"][QUOTE="dakan45"]Restricted Area, its EXACTLY like diablo but with guns.jk12345677
i was thinking of that but i found it to be a waste of money i was thinking if there is game like that. Ehh i didnt quite get this... they also released a similar game with samurai.
How good are Baulder's Gate and Icewind Dale as hack and slashers?

BG not so much but combats are still plenty; IceWind Dale oh yes very much...however, that's after you're familiar with Infinity Engine interface and dnd rule sets.
sorry man, but when it comes to RPGs your options 99.9% of the time are fantasy and scifi. Scifi is a better bet for guns and modern stuff, and I thought Space Siege was really an awesome game.
