Dammit. The Xbox release of Sacred 2 has been bumped again, now to March 24. It was originally supposed to come out in November with the PC version, then it got bumped to February, and now March. C'mon, Ascaron! Your fans are waiting here! Where else am I going to get a good hack and/or slash loot-fest these days? There's very few games keeping the genre alive, and I can't very well pin my hopes on Diablo III, considering how Diablo II turned out, can I? Particularly since it's not even slated for the Xbox. Bah!

How Diablo II turned out?  This is total flamebait.

You click on monsters and they die.  It seems hard to make a bad Diablo-esque RPG.

It wasn't bad, it just wasn't good IMO. I was a huge fan of the first game and I followed the pre-release of Diablo II for over a year waiting for it to come out. When it did, I literally thought my video card was broken. Once I got into the game, I quickly realized it wasn't at all what the pre-release information had lead me to believe it was going to be. It was a decent game, but no more than that. Diablo III looks good in the screenshots and videos, and I really hope it's good, but I'm hesitant to get my hopes up for a Diablo game again. Burn me once. Until it comes out and I can see it for myself, I'll wait for Sacred 2.
