Me too, but we could be waiting a while, because SCEE is chucking a Blizzard on us, delaying the release date and everything, but if it is anything like the first two games, it should be worth the wait. GOD OF WAR RULES!!:D
I've played Underground 2....I reckon I'll have to agree with ya. It was definitely one of the better NFS games on the PS2, before EA went too far with the whole "underground street racing" dynamic.
Talking about you, Most Wanted.
As a rule, videogames based on movies usually do suck balls, and end up relying on brand loyalty (i.e. fans of the movie buying the game) to get respectable sales figures. Not to say there isn't the odd exception though.
Me and a bunch of my friends used to do something like that at school, but the game was Unreal Tournament. Heaps of people would play.
But we couldn't do it after one of the guys in my year found it and was dumb enough to play it in the middle of class, with the teacher there, mind you...
Blizzard knows to make money, that's for sure. And a decade is quite a while for a solid Diablo fanbase to accumulate. When these two things combine....well, anyone with half a brain can figure it out from there.
