Forums - PC Discussion - Diablo III - 6.3 million sold, new PC game launch record

Great numbers, they deserve it ...

Wow this is a lot higher then predictions.



It's just that simple.

And with that simple number explains the host of problems and error 37's people have been experiencing and complaining about.

Even if only 1% (and I suspect it was higher than that) of people complained, that's still a lot of complaints, lol.



Dang, Blizzard games are seeds that grow into money trees. If it weren't for their online policies that require their games to be online all the time, I'd be enjoying the game myself.



like i said more than one time here just to kill the baby seals, in the german amazon sales diablo 3 was #1 for half an year or so before it was released and is now almost one year in the top 100. and the chart if for all platforms, if 360, ps3 or 3ds. something which is so long in the charts on the first place can't sell only 4 million lifetime or what some analysts stupidly predicted.

I was shocked by this number. Absolutely astounding sales. My friends and I are certainly contributed to that, though the sad thing is none of us have played since it has come out. LoL has taken over all of our gaming time. =/

It's the oppposite for my friends. This is the first PC game I've bought in 3+ years and we are all playing it. I've already put in a good 30 hours into the game and liking it outside of the single player latency. Since you always have to be connected theres even latency in single player, and It's rather annoying. Hoping the servers stablize in a month or two otherwise It's something I'd knock a whole point off a review for. Otherwise ignoring that It's probably a high 8/solid 9 score from me.



It's just that simple.

Oh god! PC gaming is dead! Core gaming is dead!

LOL! We must be undead gamers, then.   

 

Except that Diablo is actually quite a casual RPG!
