@Grenadeh noob, wake island is 5 times: 1942, 2, 2142, 1943, and 3. So it would be for a 6th time if it appears in BF4.

If you actually watch the video on the Deus Ex: Human Defiance website you would clearly see that it is an April Fool's joke. They may have tried a little too hard at it, but it was fairly humorous and is hardly anything to get mad over.

@Sp0ilzbury @Supabul unbiased journalism has been gone for a looooong time. You have to go to 3 different sources to piece together the facts, and even then it still sometimes ends up skewed.

You guys realize this is nothing but a rumor as of now, right? Oh yes, I forgot, from a "reliable source", so it must be true.

@Albaficas It's a general trend in gaming news for writers to place their opinions as often as facts in articles, normally stuff just to create controversy and it gets really old really fast. I just want an unbiased source of news for once, which is damned near impossible to find today.

@hawsman3 I avoid sarcasm because it is difficult to properly convey through writing alone.

I admit that the title is a little misleading at first, but after reading the article, stalling very obviously refers to the lack of innovation in the gameplay of the series and how it has barely changed from previous games. Not whether or not the Diablo series is going to flop. There is very little innovation in D3, it is mostly about updating and improving existing elements, not adding new ones. Not saying that it's a bad thing, but is it good? We'll see. That is basically what was written in the article.

The reason I like the article was because she didn't make conjectures or extrapolations or spurt opinions throughout it. It was all reliable quotes and factual statements, that's what good reporting is. The last two paragraphs at the end of the article talking about the genre are direct quotes from the developers of D3 and Torchlight 2, not her words. Nothing in the article leads me to believe that she is promoting the Action RPG genre other than the fact that she is reporting on it.

She didn't go off on a tangent talking about how the always online requirement for D3 would destroy the game and suppress the playerbase like other writers might. Maybe it will, maybe it won't, but it isn't really up to the reporter to go there. Gamespot is a gaming news site, not a gaming blog. Gimme the news, not your opinions, I can come up with my own.

@Albaficas I have been a subscriber for 7 years, and I prefer it to every other site. Not really sure where you got that idea.

Wow, an actual news article on a gaming website. I want to thank you, Laura, for writing such an unbiased and informative article, I really enjoyed reading it. We need a lot more of these instead of writers trying to throw their worthless opinions in with the facts..

@GamespotAudio Pirates will probably crack Diablo III the same way they do with any online DRM type security. They did it fairly easily with AC2 and other Ubisoft DRM games: place a fake server on the computer with the application and trick it into recognizing the fake server as the official server. Sure, no multiplayer features, but that isn't the main part of Diablo III anyways.

@ArtDecoVeryNice Its an idea that only adds. Presumably you're paying for the game to play it, but if the person who buys the game feels inclined to skip some of the gameplay, then they should. There are plenty of games where players would rather just skip the section than be forced to play through. Nothing wrong with adding an easy button for the casual players. This is only really applicable for non-stat recording singleplayer games in the first place, so it won't affect anyone else if the player decides to use it.
