Deep Silver today announced that the 'Faction Pack' - the first piece of DLC for 4A Games' critically acclaimed Metro: Last Light - is set for worldwide release on Steam, Xbox LIVE® online entertainment network from Microsoft and the PlayStation®Network on July 16th in North America and July 17th in Europe and the rest of the world. The 'Faction Pack' includes three original single player missions, each casting the player as a different specialist from the warring Factions. Returning to some classic locations from Metro 2033, these missions feature new weapons, the return of a truly terrifying mutant foe, and offer three distinct gameplay challenges... As a Special Deta…

So, I finished this today. I'd say the reviewers that scored it in the higher margins nailed it. The first act drags on pretty bad, and it seems like a lot of nothing is going on, but after that it picks up considerably. Some of the puzzles are a little bit of a stretch, but the make sense once you figure them out. I also liked that you could skip most of the mini games. I'm not a fan so I just skipped them all. Overall, a decent adventure game. It's a shame that it ends were it does. You really are just getting to like the main character when the credits roll. However, they are suppose to be releasing #2 in Sept. If you like adventure games, this is one worth picki…

Called it.

Now, I've been back and forth on it for a while. I LOVE Diablo 2, but I mainly only ever played the single player campaign. When I heard they cut that out of D3, I decided that maybe I wasn't gonna get it. I don't know. What do you guys think?

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/6368188147 Got to say, I'm pretty excited.

Thoughts from those of you who have played it? I'm getting legendaries like crazy and without even running with magic find on. FOUR legendary rings and countless other drops. Oh yeah, the expac is pretty good, too. haha

Barbarian http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/6923460/ Snippet For 1.0.4, we're taking a good look at some of the most unpopular skills for each class, figuring out why they aren't being used in your builds, and then seeing how we can make them better -- either by redesigning how they work or just buffing the hell out of them. Barbarian is the first character they're talking about. Looking forward to what they have in store for Demon Hunters and Wizards.

Diablo 3 has two auction houses - one which deals in real money and another in in-game gold - through which players can buy and sell in-game items. It was expected, Wilson noted during a GDC talk (via Joystiq), that a legitimate auction feature would reduce the use of fraud and black market sales, and that only a small number of players would use them. The developer was wrong on both accounts, admitted Wilson. Almost every Diablo 3 player, he said, has used an auction house at some point, and over half of them on a regular basis. This "damaged item rewards", he added, and the pursuit of money has detracted from what should be the game's real motivator - its campaign. …

I feel like I might be behind the power curve, but I just got a beta key, and I'm downloading it now. I'll keep you guys updated when I get it all installed. If anyone else has it, I'll give you my email or battle.net id if the friend system is working.

For those of you who liked Diablo 3. I liked it but it was a bit on the short side. Running the game 3-4 times to get max level just got boring for me but the expansion could bring life back. Site: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/reaper-of-souls/

Thought it might be an idea to have a thread where we can talk about Diablo 3 items? Someplace to post items that maybe you don't want/need that other gamercide players might. No worries if someone wants/needs to do other things with their items. I'll start it off with the following request. I'm looking for a nice 2H crossbow for my DH. I'm lvl 15 and have been using the same 'blue' 1h crossbow since lvl 6. Thanks guys. edit - I'll list my "don't need" items later.

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/6369407745 Snippet Players can now cancel their auctions at any point so long they do not have any active bids on them (it will still take five minutes for a listed auction to become searchable, however). Search Improvements: We're upping the allowed number of "Preferred Stats" per search from 3 to 6. We're upping the number of digits you can enter in the "Min Value" field for equipment searches from 3 to 5 (i.e. you can now search for values > 999).We've replaced “Minimum Damage” with “Average Damage” as a searchable stat, which can be calculated as follows: (Min Damage + Max Damage) / 2. So, for example, searching for an Averag…

Does anyone here still have it, let alone play it? My new laptop is actually able to play games, and Diablo is one of my favorite of all time, so I'm probably gonna pick it up. So, does anyone have it and will be willing to play online at all?

Anyone play it anymore or have it?
