Sure, all you have to do is buy another PC if you dont have one and another copy of the game and expansion. That sounds the same as just getting another controler. And f**k the big screen in the living room, we could just buy another 1080p big screen so we could both enjoy the awsomeness, unstead of one on the monitor and one on the hdmi tv. And it works for up to 3 players, 4 players is when it starts to get expensive to be on pc.


Actually, no you don't. You can plug another controller to the same PC and use multi-clienting on a single PC using this baby:

And this device supports up to 32 people at one time.

Thats pretty cool, I have never seen something like that. But that proves nothing. This means that the pc needs to be powerfull enoughf to split the resourses in 2 or 4. A pc like that will cost you over $1000 anyways so its still way more expensive since the pc game was not build to be multyplayer on the same pc unlike the console version.


The point is, the PC can do it, and do it better than Diablo 3 on the console. You don't need a PC over $1000 dollars to handle it. A PC costing $500 dollars would be more than enough to do twice as many users than any of the consoles can do.
