Chris "Assimilator" McLerran Video Games always have a goal. In the majority of games this goal is the complete and utter defeat of an enemy. But what does this really mean to us? Why are we actually playing these games? That is what I plan to delve into in this entry of This Weeks Geek.

This really did not come as a surprise to me, or just about any one else, but Diablo III has broken the record for PC game sales in a 24 hour period. In the first 24 hours of the game being on sale they sold 3.5 million copies. This number doesn't include the 1.2 million copies that people got with their World of Warcraft annual pass subscription. That means approximately 4.7 million people were ready to play on day 1. Over the next week that number grew to 6.4 million users. Congratulations in the record Blizzard, and in being able to have so many bugs at launch and still have people love you.

Chris "Assimilator" McLerran E3 is a little under 2 weeks away at this point, and with it comes a number of press conferences from the leaders in the video game industry. Too bad many of us (yours truly included) don't get to actually attend these conferences. So how will we watch them instead? Well many companies will either live stream the conference themselves or have partnered with a cable channel to do it (such as G4 or Spike TV). As I find / get links for the streams I will place them in this post, which will be moved to the top of the site each time I update it.

20 years ago (12 years in real time) several hero’s destroyed Diablo and his brothers. They made the world safe for human kind once again. But, as with all things, this piece did not last. The end of times has arrived, heralded by a falling star. Now a new generation of heroes have stepped up, some by the need to do good, some to save the innocent, and others following prophecy. But have they arrived in time to save creation? And more importantly, is it any fun to play?
