I think what we have here is a failure to communicate. My point was that the D2 multiplayer being full of hacks and cheats has nothing to do with the fact that I couldn't play a single player game of D3 by myself last night. That's not about protecting the experience for me or other players. On top of that, they…

All of them! Please, sir, may I have some more? Especially Balder's Gate II: Shadows of Amn. I LOVED that game!

What? I play D2 and there isn't a single hack. That's because I play offline. I'm not hacking and ruining my experience and therefore it isn't ruined. Pizza Party is right. It is a terrible shame to pay money for a game and not be able to play it single player right out of the box. What's more disappointing to me is…

Methinks they put a little too much World of Warcraft in my Diablo III. How about they give me my offline single player and take that real money auction house and stick it?

I'm suspecting they took the web servers offline so we couldn't rage in the forums.

They aren't.

They knew exactly how many pre-orders they had. They knew there would be a lot of people trying to log in. Why would you be surprised that we are surprised? Why on Earth would Blizzard be surprised? Do they not plan to have enough servers for all of us to play? It's online only and we'll have to take turns…

Well, that's great. I just want to play a single player game of Diablo III for fifteen minutes before I shuffle off to bed. Since it's an excellent idea to make games online only... even single player games... then I have to fight with 10,000,000 gamers to log in so I can play by myself. How's that working out for…

Thanks a lot. I will call them and see. The closest GameStop is 25 miles but that would be nothing to get a CE. I never buy those but this game holds a special place in my heart and who wouldn't want a Skull with a USB drive shaped like a soul shard sticking out of it.

I would like to have one of these. I bought the digital version and I would still buy one. I went to my Walmart to ask and they have no idea what they have. He did go and look and said it was all standard version. They only had about nine. Big pile of stuff all around so I'm checking with them again in the…

"blackout-drunk scree-up ex-cop" I think you meant screwed-up.

To my fellow Kotaku members in Australia, I am outraged on your behalf. I cannot believe that is legal in any civilized country. Consumers should be protected from that kind of tomfoolery first. Anyone who paid for a product they did not receive should be made whole before the bank. The customer has no way of…

No offense to my fellow posters, but that sir was funny. I actually laughed when I read that. I'm just commenting on Diablo 3 news because I am like a kid waiting on Christmas right now. I am trying to keep busy so I don't go nuts waiting for my installed game to become playable.

It's a little joke there fellas. Easy now. You can try the demo/starter if you want to. I won't try to stop you. I promise.

If you don't already know you want to play the Diablo, then you don't deserve to play the Diablo.

I would have anguished over whether to play Diablo 3 or Max but Max Payne doesn't come out for PC yet so it's a pretty easy decision for me. No wait... I'm lying. It was always going to be all Diablo 3 all the time. I finished Diablo two weeks ago. I'm working on Diablo 2 right now. It looks like I won't get through…

This game had better be awesome because Diablo II is just about perfect. Anything less than a 15 out of 10 will be a disappointment. I'm glad I don't have to work under that kind of pressure!

Oh. OK. I missed the vibe there. I reread your comment and I totally get it now. I'm old and slow these days.

I certainly won't argue that my laptop is as fast as my desktop. It's not. However, it is far from a Honda Civic. I think you would be quite surprised how fast some of these laptops are when tuned properly with the correct parts. I've got a sandy bridge i7, 512GB SSD, 16GB 1600MHz RAM, and an Nvidia 580m with a…

To those extolling the virtues of a gaming PC rather than a laptop: it's a laptop. The buyers of these little gems are aware that desktop cards are faster. That's not the point. The PS3 is faster and has fancier games than a 3DS, right? By this logic no one should ever buy a handheld game system. I play my PC games on…
