Diablo III:PAX 13: Console Sizzle Trailer

Blizzard:Sit down, relax, and get ready to unleash Hell in your living room. Diablo III is coming to the PlayStation 3.

Looks good. About all anyone can say.

Christopher4042d ago

I kind of was hoping more than just PS3. 360, PS3, PS4, and 720.

If this gets rid of 'always connected', the auction house, and a balanced item drop system, I'd consider it.

FamilyGuy4042d ago (Edited 4042d ago )

This looks really good to me, I wonder if they plan on charging us full price ($60). It's been out on pc for a while and PC games don't even launch at $60 to begin with so I'm curious.In fact it's $39.99 new on amazon right now. http://www.amazon.com/Diabl... Heh, PS3 version marked at $60 with a december release date. Lame.

They added a couple features but does that really warrant a $60 price tag. I might get it either way, same room co-op on this will be a blast.

Godmars2904042d ago

At one point PC games were "always" $10 cheaper than console titles. Now both are usually $60.

The name of the game is charge as much as the market will bare. If you didn't buy it on PC and have one which could have played it, can probably wait a few months for a price drop.

Pedantic914042d ago

Don't understand what the fuss is about. But then again ive always been a console exclusive player for as long as i can remember so i guess my standards for "good" and "fun" are really low by defaut.

Godmars2904042d ago (Edited 4042d ago )

If there's any fuss, its anyone who thinks this isn't going to the 360.

Or its the PC crowd pissed about this not only going to consoles, but not having an always online requirement to boot.

rdgneoz34042d ago

I think its more the not "always online requirement" part more than anything else. Was annoying as hell when it first came out and you'd get DCed while playing alone.

MasterCornholio4042d ago

Hmm i wonder why they havent announced it for the 360 yet then?

adorie4042d ago (Edited 4042d ago )

The PC crowd, including myself have already went through the motions of being pissed. If you go to the forums, it's mostly about how to improve the game and trolling from people still pissed about other reasons than being on console.

People are more pissed about the drop quality than it being on console, imo. Can't do anything about console now, but Blizz can fix the drop quality.

It's just not something so simple because they worry about the economy in the game to make any decisions on the fly... Blizzard really didn't think about this so clearly as North did when they created D2. D2 players essentially created the economy on their own.

Player driven VS Developer driven economy (D2 VS D3) way of exchanging items.

They still haven't fixed being scammed via trade window, either.

Godmars2904042d ago

Apparently Sony managed to pull off something on their end so as to have first crack at the game.

ThanatosDMC4042d ago

If they allow gold spammers in the console version too, then you know Blizzard is beyond help.

kevnb4041d ago

always on or locked down to a single piece of hardware, pick your poison.

Also has same screen multiplayer which could make it worth a buy.

Gildarts4042d ago

Blizzard recently said that it's not a PS3/4 exclusive.

Robotronfiend4042d ago

Single screen co-op and no more disconnects while playing solo? Sounds a little more like the Diablo I wanted.

ArchangelMike4042d ago

Really good time to be a PS£ gamer :)

kevnb4041d ago

looks half ass to me, noticeable framerate issues even in the trailer. They should be showing the ps4 version.

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.

thorstein75d ago

I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Approval meant something.

All those games had to release without bugs.

shinoff218375d ago

Comebacks shouldnt be a thing in videogames. Just saying.

Diablo III - Still a Huge Draw in the Face of Diablo IV

Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.

Palitera384d ago

Are you comparing a continuously improved 10+ years old masterpiece with the... beta of an unreleased game?

kevco33384d ago

Heh, yeah. There's no comparison in here! Its a commentary on how III is still very playable over a decade later.
