Hellgate: London

Is the name of the first game being developed for the PC by Flagship Studios - who are the new company recently formed by several ex-employees of Blizzard Entertainment, ones heavily involved in the creation of the Diablo franchise. They're using that style as a base for Hellgate: London, which takes place in a post-apocalyptic version of the titular city. The premise is that demons have overrun Earth and have humans (the ones who are left) outnumered 100-to-1. Gathering in small numbers to re-learn the ancient arts of ass-kicking, humanity strikes back against the hordes of infernal fuckheads.

This is all a nice backdrop for the real attractions - a whole lot of heavy firepower, a whole lot of killing and a whole lot of multi-player! Your mission is to check out the unofficial site to decide for yourself if this looks worth buying (which it does, even at this stage), and then set aside the cash for your copy so we can all stay up until the wee hours alienating our responsibilites, jobs and loved ones.
