So, you didn't get around to trying out Doom: Fall of Mars earlier this month, did you? Well then, here's another opportunity for you to try the Doom/Diablo mash-up: the beta was released over the weekend and can be downloaded here.
Even if you got around to playing the original tech demo I linked to last time, it's worth seeing the beta as well. It's largely the same concept, but the engine has been re-worked and the overall experience refined.
I'm still fond of the idea, and can't wait for the finished product. Hell, I had a hard enough time tearing myself away from Doom: FoM long enough to write this post up. Go check it out!
[Thanks, Andrew]

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

I'm actually considering DLing this at work......
It was SOOO short (demo I know) and giving me items that require me to be level 10 while @ level 3 in a beta was BRUTAL. I wanted to use them....
lol @ getting mauled by a zombie thinking left-click was attack.
