Its what D2 fans are looking for.

User Rating: 9.5 | Hellgate: London PC
By Skrewdriven | Review Date:
I absolutely loved Diablo2, and while its still a good game i got bored with it about 2 years ago. I have looked far and wide for a game that would fill its place, Titan Quest, Loki, many many more all fell short for me. Hellgate however has just what I liked about Diablo2, endless variety, you can keep upgrading your weapon, you keep getting random drops, random environments etc etc, just all the lil stuff you liked about diablo is here in a different form.

Graphics: id give them a 7 they are not terribly impressive by todays standards and the engine seems a bit old or bad w.e. seems like it could be better. Still they are good and get the job done you just wont be drooling over them.

Sound: Bit weak i felt, the weapons could have better sound effects, kinda felt a lil under powered. Music was good environmental effects good. Gameplay: I liked it, the fps (shooter) mode was fun, the third person melee felt a bit floaty to me, like the guys werent totally attatched to ground and the hits didnt feel like they actually made contact with the monsters.

Overall: I found it very fun with and i liked all the customization of the weapons and armor, and literally endless options for them. Also whatever flaws I thought there was I am sure we can expect EXCELLENT customer support, since these were the Diablo2 guys, and im sure they will listen to the community of players, not to mention.....NO MONTHLY FEES.

BUY IT.
