organize an army that will make the devils nervous

i haven't really played video games, especially PC-based video games, much lately. i played halo 2 often and even played some halo 3, but for the most part, i don't really play that much anymore. i even sold my xbox 360 a few weeks ago since it was just sitting there as a glorified DVD player.

... but ... when i did play PC video games, the ones by blizzard (warcraft, starcraft, diablo) were always my favorites. i loved the diablo series and beat the first two versions. blizzard was also one of the first to do online gameplay well.

that being said, the new diablo game looks pretty damn cool. i probably won't buy it or probably even play, but it's still a bit tempting.

here's the cinematic trailer ...



... and a link to a video showing the gameplay.

along those same lines, i'm excited about the new wii game Star War: The Force Unleashed. i just think it'd be cool to swing a lightsaber around for a video game, though i'd probably break something in my apartment or hurt someone (or myself). i probably would have picked up a wii once i sold my xbox 360 if it could play DVDs. oh well, maybe in the future.
