Dungeon crawler goodness: New Sacred 2 footage

Okay, so maybe we're not getting a 360 version of Diablo 3 (or maybe we are), but that doesn't mean we can't get our dungeon crawling fix. Of course, there is Too Human coming in August. Too Human is sci-fi though. What about strict fantasy fans? For them, we have Sacred 2. In development for quite some time now -- we first saw it at GDC 07 -- Sacred 2 looks to give fans of dungeon crawling something to smile about. We were impressed with the game when we saw it at this year's GDC, and these videos are looking even better. While the amount of gameplay seen in these two videos is pretty small, what's there looks very pretty. Oh, and did we mention that Sacred 2 will have 4-player online co-op? Yeah, well it will.

Looking forward for Sacred 2, look like it could be a very feature full dungeon crawler, instead of some of the xbl crap ;-) , ohh and preordred Fable 2

Looks awesome, but two gripes:

1. The walking animations look a bit strange, almost like her legs don't line up with the rate at which she is moving. This seems like an easy fix, however.

2. Not so much a complaint as an observation: the videos look like they are from the PC version. I wonder how the point-and-click mechanic (a la Diablo) will translate to the 360.

Looks fun- I'm really anticipating this and Too Human. And yes, Fable 2 as well. :)
