Hellgate London is a game that was developed by the former Blizzard North team, the team who made Diablo I & II. It seems to me a lot like Diablo II with WoW mixed in and a bit of it's own pizzazz. I have some screenshots of me playing it 5 minutes ago. Thanks Max for getting me into the beta!
I stand, clad, with a sword and a shield in my hand. That last burrito I had before coming into battle finally kicking in. I was about to kneel down and rip one, kneeling down just in case it was wet, it felt like it would be, when I spotted a demon. He stared, but I ignored him. I proceeded to do my deed on the demons below me, buttoned my jeans and chopped his head off.
So, after killing a bunch of crap, I felt like killing more crap. So I charged into battle, in my Sunday School tight striped sweater, through a tunnel and started killing random things, this "Imp Sniper" or whatever was one of my targets. He fell down in pain after I kicked him in the shin, but, I thought it would be funnier if I stabbed him sixteen times.
What the heck? I just noticed the white EXP bar at the bottom, but, also, what am I hitting that thing with? It doesn't look like I'm stabbing it, it looks like I smacked it with my sword while doing some sort of robotic neutron dance. Swords are for stabbing, not smacking.
I switched out of my Sunday School clothes mid-battle, gave them to a hobo and killed a room full of demons and what-not, here's me flaunting my victory.
Ah crap! This was NOT a good situation. Like, 20 of those things! What were they doing? Having an orgy before I came along? No excuse for so many!
Well, as you can tell by my HP orb (lower left corner); I'm half dead. I killed several (five in picture a few more off screen) before I started vomiting my pancreas out along with lots of blood. After securing my organs in a freezer with a few cold beers in it, I returned to battle.
After many kicks to the shin, flying magical bullets, and pornographical images, I managed to kill all of them. As you can see, many line the corridor, and many are in the room behind me (off screen) and many in the room after the corridor. Look at the bottom left hand corner, it says Excellent Work! I did it all alone. I'M A BIG BOI NOW!
So, after getting the capacitors, I went through a sexy, erotic, soothing blue portal and was instantly attacked by a bunch of crap. Here is an example.
What the HELL is that thing!? (no pun intended) I don't know, but, I killed it. That's all that matters in this world.
You know how when something dies it shats (craps) itself? Yeah... this thing was no different. Fifty feet safety zone, please, toxic radiation in the premises. Thank you.
Are we dancing or fighting? Hmmm...
What the hell? This strikes me as a little odd. My locker is jammed! Seriously, why the hell do demons need lockers?
Hope ye enjoyed.

I'll submit some high res good quality nice lookin screenshots w/ DX10 enabled too, those ones look like you guys kinda play with your settings a bit low.
It doesn't look like I'm stabbing it, it looks like I smacked it with my sword while doing some sort of robotic neutron dance. Swords are for stabbing, not smacking.
Funny, but untrue. Well, the robot dance part is, but swords were mainly made as sharpened clubs. It was better to knock a guy off his horse, then break his arm or rupture his spleen with blunt weapon trauma then having the sword cut into the armour, but not much else. Only after the gun became used did swords become fast, light, and sharp.
I love how you were totally honest on how the game played.
"It doesn't look like I'm stabbing it, it looks like I smacked it with my sword while doing some sort of robotic neutron dance. Swords are for stabbing, not smacking."
"What are we doing, fighting or dancing?"
And all the other major flaws it had haha.
Made me laugh alot.
I played it as a Blademaster for 2 seconds.
Then a Marksman for 20 mins.
The FPS style of the game isnt much better.
"Click dead, Click...dead.. click click click boss and all the zombies dead, RAPID FIREE WOOO WOOO WOOO WOO WOO WOO WOO *bullets spray everywhere around the walls, hell, I bet the bullets even shoot behind you*

Lol. I was actually just trying to be humorous, not really insult the game. The guy who sent me the beta invite actually turns out to be (as I found out 10 minutes ago) a senior designer of Blizzard North (the guys who made the Diablo series), the co-founder of Flagship Studios, and executive producer of Mythos.
It was VERY cool! I'll post some more screenshots later, considering the NDA is completely lifted.

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.

It's the resolution he is playing on. This is a screenshot with a higher resolution.
