Anyone who's played Diablo II would have heard of Titan Quest. Some call it a D2 spin-off or whatever. But honestly TQ deserves credit, it's one of the best hack and slash games ever if not the best. For me I would pick TQ over D2, graphics comparison aside, TQ beats D2 hands down in terms of character customizability. You get to choose to be a single class or dual-class, each with unique abilities and names for it. If you like melee characters then the warrior, if you prefer using skill and cunning then the rogue, or if magic and melee appeals to you then a battlemage would be sweet. Basically, this skill system alone makes for alot of replay value, furthermore many side quests kept me playing for a long time.

Storywise, TQ takes on a more mythological feel, taking you from Greece to China. Expect some beautiful scenes. As you go for quests, you get rewards for accomplishing it, from items to experience. The layout of the character inventory and stats are simple and easily recognisable, a nice feature is that pressing one button brings up both. While pressing the Alt button allows players to differentiate items on the ground easily. Gameplay makes for alot of cool stuff, scrolling the wheelmouse button, you can zoom in and out of the battle to admire your character slashing up that critter. Monsters are tough during the last stages, expect to be doing alot of hit and run. A nice feature is the skill re-allotment, simply visit a mystic in any town and you can claim back skill points at a cost.

Overall TQ scores best for its innovative skill system. If you love hack and slash games, get this!
