The hack 'n' slash genre is one which I haven't played enough of in recent years, mainly because games of the hack 'n' slash variant tend to be of poor quality and are often immediately bargain bin material or the stuff of weird Doom 3 mods. The hack 'n' slash genre still has a lot to offer though in theory, as long as a good enough game can be made of it. Simple interfaces, focus on combat and RPG-lite elements; these are the hallmarks of hack 'n' slash which make it ideal for laptop gaming and some casual RPG fans.
