Diablo 3
Diablo 3's 2.0.1 patch includes some major changes to Blizzard's dungeon crawler. On top of introducing Loot 2.0, it also tosses in Cursed Chest events, the removal of the Paragon level cap, and adds Clans and Communities. But how much does that affect the average player? Watch jeffmoeller venture through the overhauled Diablo 3 to find out.

PlanetSide 2
This week offered a special edition of GCR Ops, as our Giant Communist Robots battled on behalf of the New Conglomerate faction on the revamped Amerish continent. Many of the changes were met with praise from Chatty, while any concerns have been heard by the game's developers, who are currently evaluating them for a future patch. Check out this week's GCR Ops below, led by squad leader nyranger66.

Warhammer 40K: Space Marine
Space Marine continues to stand out as one of 2011's most overlooked titles. Relic provided a solid FPS game and a fun multiplayer experience to boot. hemtroll shows us how much fun Space Marine's multiplayer could be by jumping into Capture the Flag on the Manufactorum and Basilica maps.

Planetside 2 has made a lot of great changes lately. More shackers need to come back to the game and play.

Diablo 3 loot is such a huge difference. I got 3 legendaries in that playthrough last night, all for my class. Thanks for linking my vid Ozzie. This week I am thinking of streaming a combination of Demon's Souls (first playthrough) and Dark Souls NG+ to lead up to DS2.

I played from siegebreaker through to diablo on torment 1 the other night and it was fine and the new loot was good but afterwards I kind of felt regretful that I'd just spent 2 or 3 hours doing something I'd done for 60 hours already.
I'm unsure whether or not the new patch will extend the life of the game for me and if the expansion will be worth the $40(?). -
The new loot generation combined with automatic level scaling especially. Part of the problem previously was that you could often be playing a character that's overleveled for the content, which in turn resulted in not finding gear that was high enough level to be potentially useful.
