Diablo 2 - Bestseller Series for Windows

Pros: New act, new items, new characters.
Cons: Battle.net still lags, kind of expensive.

One of my favorite games to play is Diablo 2. There’s something about killing a bunch of monsters with one little button that appeals to me. If you like Diablo 2, then you should really try the expansion, Diablo 2: LoD, out.

...

Pros: Great storyline, lands, characters, items, and villains
Cons: You can waste hours a day playing this game

For Christmas of last year, when shopping for presents, I noticed that my son had put Diablo II on his list. I was rated M for mature, but I knew that he could handle. So on Christmas morning, my son opened the package containing Diablo II, and ran for...

Pros: Lovely video scenes, well voice acted, easy to handle
Cons: Overhyped, multiplayer is a joke at best, ancient topping resolutions, linear plot, boring hack ´n slash gameplay

At last, after three years of rumors, speculation, and fan sites muttering, the Behemoth has finally arrived. I have to say I’m not disappointed, I mean, I was expecting what happened here.
Okay, I admit it, I didn’t like the first game in the...

Pros: Powerful group-enhancing powers
Cons: propensity for shield and single-handed weapon

This review has been divided into 5 parts. Each part will have the same preface where the general gameplay and GUI will be reviewed, followed by an in-depth assessment of each of the 5 characters you have to choose from. That way you, the reader, will...

Pros: new act; 2 new classes; new skulls to crush
Cons: poorly balanced; too much too soon; buggy

We all remember the good old days when the original Diablo completely dominated the genre because of its radical improvements in many different parts of computer gaming.

But then, sadly, as all things eventually must, Diablo I faded, only to...

Pros: Excellent length. Great characters. Awesome cinematics. Read Review
Cons: none

Note* Forgive my inactivity during the last few weeks. My computer is now repaired and I can continue writing. Thank You - Wandering_Mage

P.S.
This Review is based on Diablo 2 and It's expansion. I review both, and I will explain the...

Pros: huge world, tons of variety, new items, not just an expansion, lots of little improvements, they fixed the hacking/pk problem!
Cons: could be better visually, last act a downer, some balance/difficulty issues

After a good year or so of teasing, aborted release dates and other obstacles I finally grasped a copy of Diablo 2. I loved the original game and previews of the sequel made it seem like heaven on Earth.. well for a fan of the original at least. I have...

Pros: FUN, fast action, balances ease of play with complex strategy and challenge
Cons: Story is too short, no choices that affect plot, nothing to do besides fighting, graphics

Let me start by saying this is my favorite video game of all time. No game have I spent longer playing or gotten more enjoyment out of than this, and I've played a lot of different games. It comes highly recommended to anyone who likes fast paced action ...

Pros: The best game ever
Cons: none

In a land far, far away and in a time long forgotten lived warriors and wizards. Angels walked the earth and fought the devil and his evil creatures. Now is the time of Diablo. He has once again risen to power and has been creating havoc and destruction...

Pros: Fun, addicting gameplay, insane depth, loads of skills
Cons: Gargantuan install size, gameplay sometimes gets repetitive, dated graphics.

Well well well...... This being my first experience with Blizzard's hack 'n' slash and RPG fusion that is the Diablo series, I must say, I'm quite impressed. I knew that both the previous game and expansion pack were well recieved, so I had high hopes...

Pros: Improved graphics, assassin is pretty cool, tons of additional tiny stuff
Cons: Doesn't fundamentally change the way the game is played, thus it doesn't last too long

I enjoyed Diablo 2 - for a while. Then I just wandered away. I read the promises of the myriad of changes that would be made with the expansion pack and thought, "hmm, sounds pretty good" So I bought it.

And shockingly enough, I enjoyed it...

Pros: Fun, Deep, Great weapons and items
Cons: Graphics could be better

I waited, and waited, and waited for this game to finally come out. I was not disappointed. This game is far superior to the original Diablo in every way. There have been many improvements including; the ability to run or walk, customizable weapons,...

Pros: Great action, huge playing world, awesome videos
Cons: Some may find it too violent

I was a fan of Diablo and like most other Diablo fans I eagerly awaited the release of the sequel. Now if you don't know Diablo is probably the greatest Fighting/Strategy game for a PC. That will undoubtedly change after more people play Diablo II....

Pros: auras are extremely effective and can be used simultaneously with combat skills
Cons: only one ranged skill

This review has been divided into 5 parts. This and the remaining 2 reviews will not only discuss the Player-Character's assessment, but they will also review each of the 4 Acts that comprise the gameplay of Diablo II. The first two reviews were...

Pros: One new act, two new classes, gameplay refinements are helpful.
Cons: Not nearly enough additions to justify the cost.

Based on Diablo II: Lord of Destruction's sales figures, you have to admit Blizzard has it made. Every game they've put out over the past few years has sold over a million copies, when most PC games struggle to reach a hundred thousand. With Warcraft III...
