Gen 7 Console Diablo like game?

[gorfias]

Gen 6 had Baldur's Gate II, a console game that reminded me of Diablo in terms of gameplay. Does Gen 7 have anything like that?

Only thing of recent memory that compared to Diablo in gameplay is Sacred 2, and the upcoming Borderlands, which is first person rather than third person and is Sci-fi.

Borderlands, that's like it in terms of weapon variants

I always thought Diablo was like Baldurs gate on the PC?....

You couldn't have been further from the truth.

One is an action-RPG, the other one is a cRPG.

Sacred 2.

Some people have said it is basically Diablo 2.5

action-RPG=hack and slash with backpacks?
Shame I liked Baldurs Gate.

More or less, yes.

...And Baldur's Gate isn't an action-RPG.

I think the OT was refering to Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance.

Sacred 2 is the closest to Diablo, and basically shows how this kind of thing can be done on consoles.

Diablo 3 is likely console bound.

No matter what anyone tells you ever, stay away from Sacred 2.

That game gave me Lou Gehrigs disease.

Torchlight will be out later this month and Dragon Age: Origins shares similiar themes although the gameplay is different.

I like Sacred 2 it has Blind Guardian in it and some great hack n slash action!

To each his own then. I could not stand it.
