If they announce that its Diablo 3 I hereby promise to buy the collectors edition, strategy guide and art book to make the game more profitable for them. If it has a HG:L style pseudo MMO thing, I promise to join that too.
Come on, just give us Diablo 3. Big Single player, big Battlenet component. Don't mess us around.
Didn't you basically just describe Too Human?
Well, I'm excited about that game too, but I want to click with a mouse as well as play on my 360
Clearly they're going to join with the developers on the Stargate MMO with a universal system that will let you visit the wild worlds of the Diablo, Warcraft and Starcraft universes. Lead teams of scientists, soldiers and diplomats to far flung worlds, where you can ride a Siege Tank into battle while under assault by heavily armed Tauren and Gnomes. Go on lengthy epic quest chains to unlock the cyphers left by a mysterious Ghost that may be the key to re-uniting the shattered shards of Outland, and do analyses that lead to breakthroughts that will finally trap Diablo on a realm not connected to ours... or so we think.
Until he unites with Ragnaros and a rogue SGC team to melt Arthas' frozen heart and unleash the trapped power of Frostmourne upon the world.
You are NOT fucking prepared.

It couldn't... Well, it could hurt. A little or a lot, depending on how much you love ugly and awesome.
Avoid D1, just don't go there. But D2 is a solid experience outside of nostalgia, I think.
The game isn't that deep at first, and it never ceases to be a case of spamming two to four abilities like a blind monk on a ddr pad, but the satisfaction of tearing apart screens full of critters in sprays of poorly animated blood and viscera is a draw all on its own. Let me put it this way, there is no bloodier action game than Diablo 2, before or since, for sheer volume of desecrated corpses.
If you're the kind of deviant that appeals to, it's worth at least a look. I won't get into the creepy item collection fetish some people have.
Diablo 1 probably can't affect you today like it did me, however many years ago that was. It was just awesome. Prowling around in the basement of a demon-infested church, fearing for your life. "AAAH FRESH MEAT" as The Butcher comes to kill you. Incredibly atmospheric in a way that has yet to be matched.
Diablo 2 plays better, but the environment won't beat that dungeon.

Diablo 1, ever since part 2 came out, hasn't aged well. And part 2, for me, has reached a point of not aging well (finally). You have nothing to gain from going back to play them, it'll only give you a negative outlook.
And yeah, Diablo the first's atmosphere was superior to many games.

YES. I loved the "church transitioning to hell" environment so much more than playing in deserts and jungles and stuff

Every time I opened a door in D1 my heart would beat so hard, because you never knew if 100 fucking skeletons were about stream out and rape you.
D1's environment was also superior because it was persistent. It always kind of bugged me that every time you loaded a single-player game in D2 the map would be completely different.

Yeah the Butcher was fucker, I was like 8 when I played this game and it was so amazing. The dude that really got me going was King Leoric (Giant Skeleton) Oh man did that dude freak me out. I agree that the Atmosphere in D1 was much darker and I preferred it, but D2 had it beat in every other aspect. God I was crazed for loot!

Diablo 1 was magnificently paced. Stepping into the church, and you run into a zombie or such, maybe the little imp dudes. Then in the later floors came the goatmen. They sounded SO much better in Diablo 1 than in part 2. They were tougher too, something to actually fear.
Then the catacombs. The music was jacked the hell up, with babies crying and all that. The area was darker, more tighter corridors and corners to turn.
The cave, not so bad. The music was more badass than anything, the lava lit the area up well, and the only thing to worry about really were the lightning guys. And goat men.
It's weird because that's the main thing people were clamoring for between Diablo 1 and 2, more environments. And initially, it was awesome to go around the world and defeat demons in exotic places. But it really changed the tone and feeling of the entire game. Diablo 1 was a descent into madness and, literally, Hell. D2 was more of a chase thing, jet-setting around the world.
Also Act 1 of D2 is really ugly. Whereas the Church levels are probably the best looking in D1.
Did anyone else here play the unofficial expansion from Sierra, Hellfire that added the monk and the area that was like a insect hive and the tomb thing...the tomb area was pretty cool

Hellfire was awful. It taught Blizzard a lesson; do NOT let other companies touch their shit.
Diablo, man I love those games, Ive had to rebuy them like..3 times now because I keep losing the discs or cd keys its very annoying, but yet i keep doing it...
its a game I tend to get bored of after around 2-3 months and then stop playing for around 3-4 months and go back to it cause Im bored and get sucked right back in for another 2-3 months, Diablo is a sort of evil addiction Ill never be rid of, damn those games.
And for the record, Diablo 1 wasnt a bad game, I actually prefer it to Diablo 2 sometimes, but Diablo 2 is amazing and has hours and hours and hours....of stuff to do...go play them...now, I dont think your computer will explode with the amazing graphics that are Diablo 2 either, so you should be fine

Hellfire was pretty cool, I enjoyed it for what it was but it sucked that it wasn't on battle.net
Hey, it looked great once you got LoD and could run it in stunning 800x600.
Definitely, I remember when It seemed to far away at 800x600 but now i can't believe I use to play it at anything but 800x600 and I wish there was other resolutions.

So if this is Diablo 3 that gets announced I wonder how many times the internet will explode

I loved the extra environments in D2. I thought the game was an improvement upon Diablo in every single way. I loved going back to Tristram in Act 1, only to find everything ruined and overrun with demons, and a possessed Griswold.

Yeah going back to Tristam sucked, Wirt was dead, Griswold was a zombie and Cain was in a friggin cage. I think I have to agree with you there Krunk. I think Diablo is the game I have put the most time into and may be my favorite game of all time.

I make a rule of grabbing any 3-socket Wirt's Leg that happens to drop during a Trist run, so I can bling it out with perfect gems.
Its what he would have wanted.

Poor Wirt, if he wasnt such a legless wonder he could have survived....atleast he lives on in that shitty leg we get... to beat the shit out of things (and then loot his bastardly dead body and kick him while hes down)
Edit: by the way I wasnt exactly knocking D2s graphics, back then they were great, of course now we have things like this Spore Creator mabob and i just look back at D2 and they arnt that great, although they do actually still hold up rather well for the type of game it is and really..Im not playing it for graphics, Diablo is just effing amazing, Blizzard would be insane not to make Diablo 3, ....and they shouldve by now
