With Diablo III just around the corner and a Doom 4 announcement on the way, hell is a popular destination for gamers right now. To celebrate all the fun we've had in those fiery pits, Dead Pixels takes a look back at their favorite trips to hell.
Who says a dud game can't have a video game comeback?
Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption.

Then there's silent hill, with a hell that's no hell at all, don't get why that's on there. Nothing about the game, just saying it's got no... hell!
