Diablo 3 Press Release

       Well guys the bad news is it not looking good for for a 2011 release date for the much anticipated release of blizzards next hot ticket item, Diablo 3. On the bright side they did release info about the soon to come beat test. Blizzard has unveiled a slew of information about its hotly anticipated RPG clickfest - and while fans are enthusiastically embracing some of what the developer had to say, they're pretty upset about other parts.

       While fans had hoped to learn when the game's beta test would kick off today, Blizzard wasn't quite ready to make that announcement. The developer did, however, reveal what players could experience when that open test of the game does arrive - and it's a pretty thorough list.

       All five character classes will be playable and players will be able to play the early part of the game (up through the Skeleton King encounter, for those of you who have been following Diablo updates closely). Along the way, they'll also experience Diablo 3's new randomized elements and interact with several new and returning characters.

      But in an effort to avoid repeating the mistake it made with Starcraft II (where it announced a release date, then missed it by nearly a year), Blizzard's not planning to give any detailed launch information for Diablo 3 at this time.

War Inc. Battle Zone

       Warmongers creator of War Inc. Battle Zone.  A free to play FPS which really has some potential.  Since release this game has 3 game modes Conquest , Siege, and Team Deathmatch . Conquest mode puts the player into a team vs. team combat for control of all Strategic points on the level. I have yet to play siege. Then there is team Death match is exactly what it sounds like, 2 teams with limited re spawns, and a nice array of weapons. Makes for a a fun packed bloodbath of an adventure.  All thou there are limited maps right now they plan on releasing more over time.

Fully customizable characters

       Social Networking seems to have its hand in everything these days. Warmongers are working on implementing it in this game. Giving players the ability to post interact with friends and other players through PMC’s, Chat, Bragging Page, FaceBook, Twitter, etc. Which is kinda of a neat idea, anxious to see how they implement it.

    
       To keep this game ``free to play`` they have a item mall, impressively put together I might add,
