Torchlight

Post by erilar »

For those who missed it on PC, Mac, or Steam, Torchlight releases on XBLA today.

It is essentially Diablo with alternate styling, made by many of the people responsible for Diablo. Composer Matt Uelmen even returns with another amazing soundtrack, jangly guitars and all. Really fun game, but sadly single-player only. (Torchlight 2 will feature multiplayer, perhaps even on an MMO scale.)

Dragon Age 2 Metacritic score: 83
Torchlight XBLA Metacritic score: 82

$15 < $60

Diablo. On a big, hi-def screen. Played on your couch. With a cold beer.

Torchlight. Now with 100% more Cheevos.

Do I really need to list more reasons?
