I think all that time with Mod and Brut rubbed off you you :P<br /><br />No doubt Blizz has slipped a bit in recent years. Starcraft2 was released without many of the features in Starcaft(where's my chat?) but the single player game was still solid. Cataclysm was a far bigger project than anticipated and at some point they realized to do it right would have taken another year so they launched it as is. Both games were still 90% complete on the content people cared about when shipped. Before those games Blizzard had a pretty good track record and for me the quality of D3 will prove if Blizz is the same company that cancelled a nearly completed game because it wasn't up to their standards.Kevin Longhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01092721842140433268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-28112149580941092842011-06-14T00:54:27.049-06:002011-06-14T00:54:27.049-06:00E.J.: 2011 is a good year for games.

It's kind of a strange phenomenon...<br /><br />Tomeka: We shall be playing Skyrim the day it comes out :)<br /><br />Alyson: Sorry to hear that about your cable server.

I'm in the same boat with Rogue. No teasing... just deliver already!<br /><br />Hello Kevin. May I please join you in your alternate, Utopian reality where Blizzard only releases games when they are done?<br /><br />Steph, a fully interactive environment? Assasin's Creed? I'd never get through the story. Would probably spend all my time in "that guys" house. I still try and enter every building in GTA IV, only to be met with the disappointment of running into a painted wall.Tomekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03072517723132216801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-91955919612355977052011-06-13T18:05:44.919-06:002011-06-13T18:05:44.919-06:00Bless whoever was on the team behind Assassin'...Bless whoever was on the team behind Assassin's Creed that said "Let's allow the user to go ANYWHERE on the map." No invisible walls. No nothing. You want to go inside this guys house? You can go in. I want to hug this person whenever this EXACT SAME CONCEPT concept pops up in other games.<br /><br />...and second what Kevin said about Diablo III. Come on they had teaser footage LAST YEAR! What are they waiting on?!Steph Schmidthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00975939582442193113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-92072088727707526572011-06-13T14:32:19.924-06:002011-06-13T14:32:19.924-06:00Sounds interesting.

It could be because I got it on the Xbox and just didn't like using a gamepad vs a mouse and keyboard on the PC.<br /><br />I'm sure Blizzard is pushing hard to get Diablo out this year. Last year they had both Starcraft/WoW:Cataclysm launch and Diablo is their only shot at a game this year. You know Activision is pushing Blizzard for a Diablo release in '11 because the rest of the company will struggle to make up that income without it. No CEO likes to tell his investors they are going to have lower profits. I hope Blizzard sticks to their mantra of only releasing the game when it is done. This game will be a good barometer of how much influence Activision has over the creative team at Blizzard.Kevin Longhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01092721842140433268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-27117211137019196412011-06-13T09:27:47.408-06:002011-06-13T09:27:47.408-06:00You know I'm feeling a good game.

I'm also really excited for Uncharted 3, Mass Effect 3, Batman AC, and Twisted Metal. <br /><br />So many great games coming out this year!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00273059558675234923noreply@blogger.com
