    If your gonna make it third person then you gotta stick to the rules. Big tits and swingy-swishy pony tails wrapped in a skin-tight package. Oh and that scream and crunch when you fall.

    Sounds like it Xir :/

    Also, I really don't get the third person, PC exclusive mix. I mean, sure they aren't mutually exclusive, but they sure aren't the typical fit.

    Am I the only one thinking that this is the MMO engine, dressed up a a FPS??? No way they have been working on an FPS all these years. I smell stop gap.

    I find all of the complaining about the viewpoint a little silly. A PC-exclusive ANYTHING is a positive these days, and it's not like the PC never thrived on 3rd-person games in the past.

    So take the tech and assets developed for the MMO and knock out a stopgap game for finance the MMO, someone has been following the Runic Games model but I seriously doubt they can follow Torchlight's success.

    Got nothing wrong with third person shooters, Max Payne was awesome. Just not interested in Stargate lol.

    Max Payne and Mafia are great games but I still much prefer 1st person viewpoint. 3rd person has a whiff of the console about it and thats why i'm not prepared to believe this will be PC only.
