    My God .. Diablo 3 is almost finally here

    This game has been so long in the making and the waiting, but it looks like it will finally get a release next month.

    Its been so long, I had almost forgotten about it. I remember seeing a demo like three years ago.
    It looks nice though!

      Played the beta all weekend (it was free for everyone while Blizzard tested their servers). Pretty good, but it's a bit of a button masher. Not as much skill required as, say, Starcraft.

      My son would sell his lungs for a full copy though.

        Love button smashing But what i loved about Diablo 2 was the excitement of finding all the loot and magic armor and trying to build your stats up.

          I'm impossible to satisfy. "Too many buttons!", "Not enough buttons!"

          I loved the original Twisted Metal, but the new version requires Night School to learn all the buttons. Waaay too complicated for a "game" IMO.

          Five! Give me five buttons and I'll be happy.

          For fans of Diablo, I think Diablo III is awesome. Ran really smoothly on my 2y/o iMac too.

            Diablo 3 might inspire more clones of it to. I like some of those almost as much as Diablo itself.
            Its been awhile since I played anything like Diablo. I like button smashers.

              Sound like the launch has been a disaster. I'm sure they will work it out. I'm still interested in reading a review before plunking down $60.

                Is this really how it works?

                  I could only read about 1/4 of that article. Talk about foul mouthed, poorly written. Wont waste my time with the rest of it.

                    I picked it up. It's fun and easy to play. I know that at first they were having some trouble with the servers, but I haven't had any trouble since the first night. Also, I like that you don't have to pick a server and if your friends are on another one, you can't play with them. I ran into that with SWTOR. So I log onto D3 when I want to team up with my friends.

                      I am going to get this soon. It looks pretty cool. I was just waiting for them to iron everything out and it looks like they have.

                            I don't think my broadband connection would cope. beside, i would like a hard copy. I think there will be a restock in a couple of weeks.
