Most pre-ordered PC game ever, 12 years in the making. No one playing it or too busy washing cars ?

Yes it is very sweet. I loved the 2 original diablo's + expansions, so have been waiting and waiting for this to come out. The co-op side of joining games and meeting up with friends is nicely implemented as well. If you like hack and slash games then it is one of the best imo.

Only problem at the moment is the login process and the serious overload of their servers. Hopefully they will get this all resolved over the next couple of days. They had over 800,000+ pre-orders and over 1 million purchases included with the yearly WoW pass. It was the most pre-ordered game in the history of PC gaming, and even amazon had issues getting enough copies out.

Couple of issues at the moment with achievements and a few other bugs, but these will get patched I am sure.

It is a linear game with a story, in normal mode you will reach about lvl 30 after act 4 (4 acts in the game), but it has 4 levels of difficulty which open up as you complete the previous level. Character lvl cap is 60 at the moment. Also, it has a hardcore mode when if you die, your character is not playable any more. They will be adding PvP and real world money auctions soon.

The control method lends itself to be released on consoles, so I expect it will be released on those at some point too.

It is definitely one of those games that results in lack of sleep

Didnt play the other Diablos so no idea what its about really, does version 3 work well as a first game or do you really need to have played the others first?
