This is a really bad picture because it was moving fast but:
http://img410.imageshack.us/img410/6782/69020386js8.jpg

This is Siege Assault(?) Beast, it basically owns. Took on 4 guys, when killed summoned 5 orbs that formed a pentagram and summoned tons of undead.

So far:
-Barbarian and Witch Doctor
-Deckard Cain is back
-Uses battle.net
-Supports instant co-op matchmaking
-Has a skillbar
-Supports tab/mousewheel for quick swapping between skills on a mouse button
-Destructible environments (barb uses a skill that destroyed a wall and crushed some zombies)
-Enchantment system to enchant your weapons like in WoW.
-Monsters drop red orbs that can heal you.
-More traps in the game.
-Ladders that work, instead of loading a new map, you just traverse to a new area. Seems to be seamless.
-Female/male ver of each class.
-5 Classes.

It's over, you'll have to wait for a recording to go live now.

Don't worry Anya, you have my sword!

If it's NOT pay to play, i don't see why anyone would even consider to pick GW2 over this.

If it has a monthly fee on the other hand, Anet can keep it's niche.

Not gonna be an MMO, it'll be the same as D2 - ie, play it online with Battle.net

So yeah, GW2 could be hit hard by this.

Watching the Gameplay video atm, can't wait until they release it

Only minus in the video was that I had to wait sometimes for a while for it to load

I'm so excited about Diablo 3; I'm glad Blizzard kept it true to the previous games with improvements, of course. I have to admit that I'm a little disappointed because it seems that the new witchdoctor class has replaced the necromancer.

Isn't it a bit premature since we've seen ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from GW2? Don't put the trolley before the horses!

That's great except the lead designer already said in the dev panel that it hasn't, and if they wanted to add the necro they would.

lol XD at the above two people.

The word ,,legend'' is thrown around a lot these days...


LOL ZOMG I WANT IT. After a pretty average Hellgate: London, I'm looking forward to play D3. What's even better is - I know no bad Blizzard games. None. ;d

I guess you're new to the concept of "mirrors". And probably too smart to understand that we knew that everything was on Blizzard's www.
