Title: Path of Exile

A friend turned me on to this game after he became burnt out on D3 because of the brokenness. Its its another Diablo like game but its has a lot of different progression systems and they work very well together. All skills in the game are gems you put in your gear which level up with you so you have a lot of flexibility with your skills. Also their talent system is like FFX where everyone shares a huge grid of choices. Depending on what class you pick you start in a different spot, so the classes have meaning but they don't fully define your character. They had an open beta test this weekend and it was pretty fun, combat isn't as frantic as D3 but still very engaging.

The game will be F2P when it comes out, but if you pay 10 bucks now you get a beta key and some money for their cash shop when it opens. If you're looking for another hack'n'slash before torchlight 2 comes out check it out.

I played this quite a bit. got a char to level 20ish on hardcore and got kinda bored.  I'd play prob if bros did.  I'll be playing gw2 most likely, though.
