Torchlight makes the transition to Xbox Live Arcade almost entirely
intact. I'll still be playing on PC, but I wouldn't point anyone away
from this edition of a great game.
The team at Runic Games has an unparalleled grasp of what makes the
action/RPG formula fun. I feel like I'm discovering Diablo II all over
again.
