Didn't even know people still played diablo 2, that games gotta be like 10 yrs old!

TheIneffableBob5830d ago

The community for Blizzard's old games are still very large. Hundreds of thousands play them everyday.

Pandamobile5830d ago

Yeah, WC3 is still hugely popular.

pacowles5830d ago

I still play D2 off and on...it's free and I have characters that are like 10 years old that can still own basically anything. It's a great way to kill time when you get sick of console gaming.

Grandreaper99995830d ago

I'm still heavy into it... Waiting patiently for 1.13..

150,000 players on azeroth bnet right now

What Can Diablo IV Learn From Diablo II

Diablo IV may be the latest entry from the Diablo series, but it can sure learn a thing or two from the iconic Diablo II. Both of these games are different and similar to each other, but Diablo II's phenomenal presence should still be more appearing in Diablo IV to make the game even better in its current state.

Diablo 2 Receives 60 FPS Update Thanks To A New Mod

A fan-run initiative called Project Diablo 2 has brought a 60 FPS update for the classic Diablo title, among other changes.

Boo! Thought this was eventually a patch for diablo2 on PS5. The fact that they can’t get that game to run in quality mode at 60fps is an absolute joke!

The game is still $25 +. I'm waiting for it to drop to the actual value of the product.

Quickstrike1047d ago

I would still feel ripped off getting it for free.

MadLad1047d ago

It's an awesome RPG they did a good job to modernize.
You may not want to play it, but it doesn't mean you need to act all edgy and crap on it.

anast1046d ago

D2 is a masterpiece. I want to play it but it is still too much of an ask right now.

sourOG1047d ago

I can’t fault activision on this one. “Hostile” for the delay in recognizing their power lmao. Yikes. Good luck with that MS.

coolbeans1047d ago

This attitude is why I'm not a big fan of the MS/Acti deal: you're essentially rewarding repulsive higher-ups with golden parachutes versus absorbing talent like the inXile/Obsidian deals.

MadLad1047d ago

But the Acquisition is actually ousting these people; allowing the company to move forward.

The current shareholders, despite all the toxicity and both public and internal outcry, just voted in Kotick yet again.

coolbeans1046d ago

That's a fair positive, but part of me still hoped their misdeeds would've bit them on the ass in a more damaging way.

MadLad1046d ago

Oh, I agree.
I would love nothing more to see someone like Kotick fired on the spot with every employee giving him a kick in the balls on the way out the door.

Unfortunately the world revolves around money, and he made the company a lot of it. Thus the jackass is still around.
