How can you possibly say that when you haven't played it yet?

Did you read the reviews? I played the PC version and almost all issues has been fixed... PC needs a patch to get the consoles updates/fixes because I prefer for this game Mouse/Keyboard over controller.

I will wait the PS4 version to play for trophies while that I can play the PC version if the patch come (please Blizzard).


You do realize those problems have been fixed right? Diablo III shipped with a ton of problems upon release(Mainly server problems). As for an update for added features yeah. The main issue will be mouse vs Controller.  Much of the time controllers dont work well in these type of games as well.

I have also played Diablo III. And my point still stands.  How can you say something is better when you havent played it?  You are judging off of 5 reviews and no hands on experience.

Awesome if it is better but without playing it I dont believe you should be saying this.

I'm not a big strategy gamer, other than Civ I'm not really interested in the genre. The announcement of Diablo III for consoles did surprise me, especially the loads of advertising for a port. Do console gamers buy strategy games? Plus, the controller has to be an impediment when playing Diablo III, although I know you don't need a Starcraft-worthy APM to compete. What am I missing here?

The fact that Diablo isn't a strategy game.

Wait a minute, it's not an RTS? What genre is it then?

I'm hoping to get the PS4 version. Nice to see the port is great

why do you only hope it? what could go wrong? purchasing the wii u?

I mean I am hoping to get that version if it comes soon enough . PS3 version doesn't look that good but I like the way they tackled console so PS4 it is.

So that's offline co-op? I'm very keen if that's the case.

has online and offline co-op but offline seems to have some disadvantages on only one screen if you can trust gameinformer:

Diablo III is still more fun with a friend (or three), and provides the online and LAN multiplayer options you’d expect, allowing you to team up with friends or random players while retaining your own loot. The new 4-player couch co-op is less appealing; hacking and slashing enemies with everyone on the same screen is certainly fun, but the game’s complexity works against you. Players must share loot drops, and bringing up the inventory pauses the game for everyone. A quick equip option keeps players out of menus as much as possible, but it doesn’t convey the magic attributes of items, and you need to take turns pausing the action to assign new skills. I can see the setup working for dedicated two-person teams, but larger parties are probably better off playing together online.
