Titan Quest

I recently picked up Titan Quest, and am pretty impressed so far.

I wrote a kind of preview about it on my newly upped game blog, which can be found at http://www.gameblogger.info/archives...t-impressions/

The game is pretty good, the best Diablo-clone to come in ages. It is far better than Dungeon Seige or its sequel, and to top it off, if you have a good system, it runs gorgeous too.

Here are screens at 1280x800 @ Everything High @ 2xAA on my laptop. Specs to the side.




For those of you looking for an action RPG you can just sit back and hack away with, I recommend Titan Quest. It is not a perfect game, not by far as my coming review will reflect, but it is certainly a game worthy of the time it takes to play it.

Fallout and Fallout 2 are my two favourite games. When I was younger, I used to play them for hours on end.

Good to see another fan

I picked this game up a couple of weeks ago and am really liking it so far. It's nice being able to choose 1920x1200....I reinstalled DiabloII a while back but forgot the max resolution is only 800x600 on that game

Still fun though

Haha, I'm stuck at 1280x800 (lappy).

It is a fun game... while not quite as epic or addictive as the Diablo games were, it certainly is the best Diablo clone made to date.
