We know all too well that we won’t be getting Diablo III on the home consoles (Boo). So what are us ARPG nuts supposed to do instead? Sharpen our axes and grumble that the fate of the world is confined to the restrictions of a PC monitor? Hone our magic missile potency while mice the land over get their clicks on?

I say no! There is an ARPG coming a lot sooner than Diablo which is looking mighty fine. That game is Sacred 2.

The original was a real gem of a game, and if these screenies are anything to go by, I will be picking this up come release day.

Don’t believe me? See for yourself…I just wonder how it is going to feel, playing this almost top-down point-and-clicker with a DualShock controller.

Or even if it will be compatible with a keyboard and mouse. (Fingers crossed!)
