I've only recently discovered the awesomeness that is "The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind". I would be incredibly sad if TES went the route of the MMO and the single-player games stopped coming. However, the single-player games seem to flow chronologically, and this is set long before those games. Hope lingers.
I was shocked when the StarCraft 2 beta ran on my system, and later, so did the demo. Althrough all the detail settings had to be reduced to the lowest levels, it didn't matter--I could play. Here's hoping Diablo III will give me and my system the same deal.
