Diablo 2 - Bestseller Series for Windows

Pros: Bigger, Better, another Blizzard masterpiece
Cons: Many enemies are similar to those in Diablo 1

After a 7 month delay (Blizzard promised that this title would be out in late '99) Diablo 2 finally hit stores a few weeks ago. Was it worth the wait? I quickly snatched up a copy I saw at a nearby CostCo (I love that place!) for 44.99$ and installed...

Pros: Nice graphics especially the spells
Cons: still buggy, needs work

The stores were sold out. No one could tell me when the next order would be in either. I was chewing my fingernails again. I had to have it. I played the original Diablo and the buggy spin off, Hellfire, until I was bored to tears. But now, finally,...

Pros: Great Gameplay, relatively fast, Months of fun (maybe years).
Cons: Large amounts of space needed, battle.net is overcrowded (by tens of thousands)

You need gameplay. Diablo 2 delivers the gameplay desired for a serious gamer. This review gives the reader, a general idea about the aspects of the game.

Diablo 2 is in, some ways. the best game I’ve bought in my life. In some ways,...

Pros: Flawless!
Cons: People who didn't like the first one should not bother

Overview: Diablo, the phenomenally popular game that revolutionized the computer gaming industry, is (finally) back with its sequel: Diablo II. Like its predecessor, Diablo II cannot be categorized -- it may, perhaps, be titled a role-playing...

Pros: Addictive, huge, Interesting, Good Single play
Cons: Unbalanced Characters, Multiplayer lags (On line or otherwise)

I've let all the hype that was in me about this game wear off, so I can finally give an honest review.

And I still have to say it is a great. Any game that will keep you up until the wee hours, and still keep you entertained is hard to...

Pros: Great Gameplay, Easy Install, Fantastic Features overall.
Cons: Graphics aren't that revolutionary, nor is the sound.

I really love the people at Blizzard, honestly I do. It's not really a love-hate relationship that I think I have with them. Its just frustration sometimes I guess. I reserved a copy of Diablo II back last November. Then there were the delays. It's so...

Pros: The new stuff can keep your interest for quite some time.
Cons: You seem to wander through the same (different) regions slaying sprites - funny that?

Well here it is, approximately 3-weeks since I got my hands upon Diablo II: Lord of Destruction (D2:LoD). Unlike many, I have other things to do than play games hour after hour for longer than 2-3 hours... but by jingy, I tried! Also like many others,...

Pros: Very easy to play
Cons: Very Addictive

Well the only word to describe this game is awesome! My son got it for his birthday last month and showed it to me. I can't stop playing it. I was a big fan of the first Diablo and still play it from time to time. Diablo two is in my...

Pros: Where do I start?
Cons: Outdated graphics, but still looks good

Once upon a time in a digital galaxy far, far away, a company named Blizzard lavished us with promises of Diablo II. For 2 years I waited idly by and watched the release date change, and each preview of what the game will look like caused me to drool on...

Pros: Liked Diablo? More & better.
Cons: Not a NEW game. Poor save feature.

First of all, if you did not like Diablo, then you probably won't like Diablo 2. This is not a new game. It is an expansion of the original, with more character classes, weapons, spells and skills, and bigger maps.

If you are entirely new to...

Pros: Movies are excellent.
Cons: Too much thoughtless clicking.

Way back when the first Diablo came out, it was the first game that ever prompted the guys in my apartment to actually purchase 2 copies of the same game. Coming from a bunch of college students on financial aid, that really means something....

Pros: New characters, items, quests and monsters. General improvements.
Cons: Disk space requirements, price.

This opinion assumes that you have played the Classic Diablo II at least once before reading this opinion. If you don't know anything about it, I suggest you read my opinion (or others) on it.



PRE-EXPANSION
...

Pros: 3D graphics, easy controls, great sound and great gameplay.
Cons: Nothing I can think of.

After an eternity in development hell, one of the most anticipated PC games has finally seeing the light of day. Diablo II is bigger and badder than the original, spanning 3 CD's and featuring more monstrous creatures than you can hurl...

Pros: Lots of skills
Cons: Most of them are useless. See below.

I waited for Diablo II as long as everyone else did, and was in the mad rush on the release date to buy it. Now, two months later, I've mailed my copy back to Blizzard in disgust. Let me start from the beginning.

1) Unbalanced classes. The...

Pros: Excellent character development, good story, well-balanced
Cons: Town "stash" boxes way too small

How can a company like Blizzard, with a name so frigid, make a game so darn hot? Diablo II has been hotly anticipated, and its release delayed at least once, due to difficulties upgrading the Battle.net servers. But as Blizard has...
