I refuse to listen to any more of these "official" reviews. After reading this GS review and after cruising through metacritic, I 100% believe that this game is rated so highly because it's a Diablo sequel published by Blizzard (no duh). It's pure politics. Here is a fact: D3 is not mind-blowingly good or face-meltingly awful. It's just mediocre. There will always be a few die-hards, but I have a feeling that by the time summer is over the game's population is going to drop significantly. Not only because of school etc, but because after three months, I think the majority of people are going to hit/approach the level cap and suddenly realize "Wait a minute.. that's all there is to this game..?"
Do what Stardock did with Sins of a Solar Empire. No DRM but you have to register a key with them to have access to patches, forums and other advantages that enhance the game's experience. Maybe publishers should create a bare-bones game without a legit key but once you enter it, you get the full experience.
Omg YoutubePoop link. That would have been EPIC! "OCTAROCK!" "MAH BOOOOY." His attacks would flicker and strobe then inverse colors and ultimately explode. He'd be my favorite character..
To be honest, diamond and pearl are the greatest poke adventures Ive had since the golden days of red and blue. I heavily suggest to any fan of those two classics to give the new games a try- you'll love em. Plus, you can catch -every- Pokemon in existence in this series. How crazy is that? It's nearly 500 different little critters to use and abuse.
