    Hellgate: London

    Game » consists of 5 releases. Released Oct 31, 2007

    From Flagship Studios, whose founders were involved with the creation of the award-winning Diablo series, comes the similarly loot-driven Hellgate: London, a futuristic third/first person action-RPG set in post-apocalyptic London.

    The blurb's misleading.

    From Flagship Studios – creators of the award-winning Diablo® series and the fathers of the action role playing genre – comes Hellgate: London, the next benchmark in the evolution of the RPG genre.

    It's worded awkwardly; it implies that Flagship made Diablo. The founders held key roles in its creation back at Blizzard, but Flagship didn't do anything for the series. Of course, this is what comes off the first time you read it. "fathers of the action role playing genre" can make you think it was just the founders, but it still comes off as saying that Flagship is a better developer than it is (they wouldn't be in the shitter right now if they actually made Diablo, right?).

    I made an edit to fix this, but it got rejected, and I can't help but feel alone in my judgement.
