Forums - Sony - Diablo 3 on the PlayStation 3 isn’t just functional, it’s far better than its PC brother

You're not making any sense. The only "fact" you presented was that the game sold a lot (I assume this is the record you're talking about).

I don't see anywhere in my post that claims it flopped. Hope that helps.

Oh, by "PC release", you meant, "the pc version", then. OK, sorry and nevermind. You usually don't really hear it worded like that.

Sales-wise it will be a huge flop and ensure that we won't see another Blizzard game on consoles again in a very long time.

I've not seen anybody on forums being excited about Diablo 3 coming to consoles.


It may gain traction on its PS4 release, thats the only reason why I'm paying attention to this game.



The most overhyped game(well for me atleast) these last couple of years.



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

the superior pc master race as beta testing guinea pig for console games?

sounds great!



I'll be getting the PS4 version.

Diablo didn't create the genre, it just popularized the isometric style. And diablo is not an MMO, it is single player-coop.

And old school MMO as old as Diablo is Lineage, it is an MMO focused on open world pvp:

The sequel to L1, called Lineage Eternal, will be released in 2014-2015:

I said a lot MMO use the Diablo style gameplay... not that Diablo is a MMO... the guys was question what kind of gameplay Diablo have and I give him some example.

Not surprising considering the PC release was terrible. I got the vibe from day one that it was a game designed for consoles but then ported and limited on PC. Removing the auction house instantly makes it better than the PC game.

Not true... PC release was amazing... the game was played by a lot of users and make you vicious in little time.

Guys this game is a masterpiece on PC... the additions for console just make it even better... the game have a average of 88 in Metacritic with 86 reviews... 88 because a troll score because the game received most scores over 90.

The Metacritic scores are not indicative of what the game became. Weren't there some reviews for SimCity where they went back and lowered the scores because of the games issues? This is what would happen with Diablo 3 if reviewers did it now. Or even did it months after release. Modern Warfare 2 is another prime example. The Metascore is based on nothing but hype. If people went back and re-reviewed that game even 3 months after release the scores would have been very different due to the glitches and wildly unbalanced gameplay people began to exploit.

Like I said though, the removal of the auction house instantly makes it just that much better. If some other core changes are made then I might rebuy the game on consoles. Would take a lot though.

Ask for any Diablo III player... the game is great... sorry but you are wrong here... of course there are things that make the game different and worst than previous Diablo but the game is not bad like you are trying to say.

My friends and me couldn't stop to play it for weeks.

It's an opinion... it's no more wrong then you are when you say the game is great. Also, "ask any D3 player" fails because I bought the game day one and think it's terrible. As does anyone else I know who bought it. Anecdotal, but relevant nonetheless.

My friends and me only played it for a matter of weeks. Diablo 2 on the other hand we played together for years. To each his own though.
