Forums - Gaming - Diablo 3 console port 'not necessarily a Sony exclusive', says dev

CVG

The console version of Diablo 3 may not be restricted to PlayStation.

The game has so far only been confirmed for PS3 and PS4 releases, with no mention of a version for Xbox.

But when quizzed on the game's exclusivity to Sony consoles, lead designer Joshua Mosqueira told Penny Arcade, "We don't have any announcements to make at this time, but we're not necessarily a Sony exclusive."

It has also been confirmed that the console port will allow for offline play - something which the PC version does not - and single-screen multiplayer.

"We really felt that playing offline, and being able to move your console from the living room to your bedroom, which a lot of players do to play, is really important," said Mosqueira.

Blizzard today released a gameplay video for Diablo 3 running on PS3 to coincide with the console port's playable appearance at PAX East.

In your haste, you forgot to post the source

Haste? CVG is wrote on top of the page.

As a journalism student, even if you write the name of the source but not the actual link to the public content, you're doing nothing :3

That's mostly because Spain journalism's history has a tracked record of inventing sources by naming only where they did obtain it.

I wonder if people would rage if the game came to Wii U, not that I'd buy any version of it to start with.

I don't think they will rage because very few people are going to play this on any console to begin with.



Nintendo and PC gamer

If that'll get Blizz to stop dicking around, then I'm all for people not buying it.
