Vhero it is too early for most uninformed comment of the day....

Lets break it down:

Blizzard is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more popular than when D2 released. More fans buying D3.

Everyone I know who loved D2 is foaming @ the mouth for D3.

Greener pastures? Not one game has captivated me and took my time like Diablo 2.

LOL man. You probably couldn't tell a good game from a rat's ass.

But on topic, I certainly hope Gears 3 won't be like Borderlands or Fallout 3 or have ANY kind of RPG like system. The Gears of War franchise is adrenaline and testosterone set to 100% and if Epic adds RPG elements then it will bog down the action A LOT. People play Gears to do this: kill somebody. 2 seconds later, kill somebody. 2 seconds later, blow someone up. 2 seconds later kill somebody. 2 seconds later blow 2 people up at the same time, etc etc. It's fast pace and action packed.
RPG elements would change the franchise that everyone knows, and maybe not for the better.

Cliff must be smoking that North Carolina backwoods sh*t. Without co-op Borderlands is boring and drab. It's Left 4 Dead with loot.

Cliffy probably makes money every time a copy of Borderlands sells, so he is probably trying to make a lame connection to a game with a huge, almost cult following in order to rack up some Unreal Engine... Damn, forgot what it's called when you get a piece of the money every time something sells! Hate when that happens!!!

I'm still sad that my necro will be gone. Oh well, i guess i'll settle with the shaman. I tried to be a barbarian and paladin on D2 but they get overwhelmed in hell mode especially in Act IV against Oblivion Knights.

I hate Cliffyboy. Too arrogant and under delivers.

Borderlands seems underwhelming and half-baked to me. But then, so did Gears. I see a trend here...Cliff seems like one of those style over substance type guys.

I must disagree with you regarding Gears 2 story, the story is good not great. It doesn't suck like the one in Borderlands.

"I must disagree with you regarding Gears 2 story, the story is good not great. "

He's referring to the terrible ending in Gears of War 2.

"WTF" was my exact response.

Borderlands gameplay doesn't rely on a deep story, and the somewhat shallow plot doesn't ruin the gameplay at all imo. It's all about levelling and looting. As soon as I finished it I went on to do all the side missions and right now I'm about to start over as another class and use different weapons.

It's one of the best games this gen imo. And I've played most big titles so far.

Yeah, it was like they couldnt figure out how to end it and just threw it there. Could have been more epic like the end KZ2 in which you definitely know that there's still a fight to be had. Rico's an A-hole.

I don't know how they would get the controls for Diablo right if it went to consoles though. It's one of those games where keyboard and mouse if pretty much necessary.

am sure we can "Pause" everytime we change weapons etc.. i don't mind.

Seferoth75 - 38 days 16 hours ago

4 people each able to pause the game at any point to check weapons, potions, spells? Oh hell no...However most consoles today support keyboard and mouse. At least the keyboard. Getting it onto consoles wouldnt really be that big of a deal I don't think
