It would take only a year without a CoD being released to the mass media to consider the series dead andleave the dominance to Battlefield. |

The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence. -Albert Einstein |

[/quote] Yup, and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. That said I think that the always on DRM is complete bullshit and I'm 95% certain that Torchlight 2 will provide at least an equal gameplay experience. That and I'm pretty sure that you don't have to play through the story on easy mode on every single character before you're allowed to be challenged. |
