FrontBurnr: Diablo 3 officially released on PC on May 5th 2012 and quickly became a reason to get back into PC gaming if you hadn’t been at the time. Unfortunately, the launch was bogged down by server issues (remember all the Error 37 talk?) for the first few days, and saw a lot of rage due to its always-online requirement. It sold extremely well and is regarded as a very good game but hasn’t fulfilled the promises of a fully functional PvP mode.
So, over a year after its release, why should the playstation fan base be excited about Diablo 3 on their console?
Who says a dud game can't have a video game comeback?
Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.
Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.
Are you comparing a continuously improved 10+ years old masterpiece with the... beta of an unreleased game?
Diablo III: Season 28 brings with it the Altar of Rites, an altar full of unlockable bonuses and potions that will require the gathering of tons of resources. One of things needed is the Staff of Herding, which also unlocks the famous Cow Level known as Whimsyshire. Here's how to craft that staff, for those that either have forgotten, or have never completed it.
I think It would be fun to play Diablo 3 over again on console. With a joystick and a couch :)
Because most people who only have consoles and don't have a PC gaming rig can play it. And the best thing about it is that it can be played "Offline"
I'm gonna love it. I don't feel like spending the money for a PC or do I really have the space for one.
I think they can do it for the console just fine. It should be a fun experience and a good community for consoles.
Diablo 3 is very unimpressive technically, it has slightly improved World of warcraft graphics. So no need to have "rig" for that game.
I find it ironic that Blizzard is bringing that game to consoles when they didn't even cared about including controller support (or wasd movement) for the pc version.
I love how you say playstation-only. You know in another week we are going to hear it will be on xbox right?... lol
