Summary: Lost in transit
Review: I loaned this game to a friend before summer of '03 when his brother loaned it out to someone who left the state. He is just now recieving my game after it was ordered around January and is going to give it to me tommorrow (May 18 2004). This was a wait of 5 months to recieve this product. but having played it before I am very pleased with this game. I find such a wait worth it.

Summary: Many hours of fun/ Many hours of boredom
Review: When you first start to play this game it's the funnest thing in the world. Leveling and customizing your own character i mean what could be better. After playing it for some hours you start to realize that all you are doing is clicking a mouse and its not really entertaining. Then you decide to try out closed battle.net and its cool. Again many more hours of fun. Then you try open battle.net. Parties over. hackers and scammers everywhere then you think its awsome and you learn how to do it. You make a hacked character and play. After about 2 hours you realize that this is VERY boring and quit playing Diablo for some time. Oh and if your lucky your hacked character will screw up and all that time you put into hacking it will go down the drain. You will come back to this game after some months and it will be fun again and the cycle will repeat. And that is what happens when you buy this. If your a fan on boredom AND fun then this is a dream come true! Happy gaming.

Summary: Most Addictive game of all time
Review: Well, it's been 4+ years now since the first diablo was released, and i'm still playing diablo II. I thought i played Diablo 1 alot. As far as how much time i've put in, I've played Diablo II for more hours then i can count (thousands of hours). It's everything diablo 1 is but better. Now i've been on and off with it for a wile, but once you play it you will see how wonderfully addicting it is and you'll always come back. I seem to play it for several months straight, then get a little bored, but i always come back, and so will you. Backed by the best computer gaming company in the world (Blizzard Entertainment) this game keeps getting better. Every so often they will release a "Patch" for the game that not only fixes bugs and problems, but greatly changes the game around (overall for the better).Don't worry about the game being old or the graphics not being the best. These things don't matter for the really good games, which is the case here. Just get it, play it, love it.

Summary: Diablo 2 When I kill a monster I like it to stay dead.
Review: This review is for those who plan to play Diablo 2 off-line and not online. This game has some really serious design flaws. The first being the inability to save when you want. The second being every time you exit the game the monsters repopulate forcing you to replay that area over again and losing an hour of so of your time. Also the storyline wasnt that interesting mostly just hack and slash and I lost interest half way through the game which has never happened before.

Summary: Plain out good, maybe best game
Review: The thing about diablo 2 is that it is one of the best, and most addictive, games ever. You can say all you want about how it is all hack and slash and repeats and the bad graphics, but when it comes down to the enjoyment of the gamer, this is the game. I recieved this game 3 years ago, and today, I still play it over new games that have been very highly rated. I recently recieved Tony Hawk Underground, Return of the King, Eye Toy, and NBA Street vol. 2, and yet this was the game which I was playing the next day, trying to get better. Diablo has kept my attention so long for many reasons. First is the incredibly addictve gameplay No matter how good you are, you can always get better, and this creates a constent need to get better. Whether it's stats, skills, or weapons, there is always an improvment to get. The quests are simply a side thought, but they are still helpful. And the hacking just adds on to the fun, because even though it is fun to not cheat, sometimes you just want to go out and destroy all those characters that are giving you so much trouble in the real game. Overall, great game, so don't get it if you want to (your loss), but if you do consider it, stop looking at all the technical stuff and just buy it. The technical stuff tells you nothing, but just playing this game is as fun as a videogame will get.

Summary: Diablo II, and diablo II Expansion, StarCraft, BW, WCIII FT.
Review: I liked playing all the blizzard games, WCIII I did like best. But the cheats got to much for even me to handle.I wouldn't touch the games now. Even StarCraft is hacked . So are all the version Of all the Diablo's, it's Real bad that Blizzard can't stop the third party programs. But they let them continue. Kids can't compete unless the to download the cheats , Then they get banned,.

Summary: Best Comp Game Out There
Review: I currently am obsessed with Diablo 2 Expansion. I am 18 years old, and although it seems most other players are in younger teens, it doesn't matter. When you are playing right next to another character you become lost in this fantastic world. Finding new items and gaining new abilities keep you from getting bored. While there are some people who try and take advantage of players, most people are very cool to play with. There are 3 facets of play in Diablo 2 Expansion:
1) Battle.net (also known as closed battle.net) this "realm" is for people who want to just play the game with other people much like the single player, but online (very fun to make a game and invite all of your friends in).
2) Open Battle.net can be fun for some, but I find it extremely boring. It is this realm where you may "hack" your characters so to make them almost immortal (for example making youself level 99999999999 instead of the normal highest of 99) and using items with insanely high abilities that are very common and easy to get. Battle.net and Open Battle.net are nothing alike, because in Open, no one is who they seem. A level 10 could want to duel (one on one fighting) your level 50, but chances are they just wrote that they're 10, when in reality they are level ten thousand.
3) Single-player. This type requires no internet. You merely put in the CD and play your game alone. This is still extremely fun don't get me wrong, but it is easier to trade for items and get your character at his best easier online. Also characters you play like this can be played on open battle.net, but not closed. Closed can ONLY be played online. I personally play on closed battle.net mostly, because I can trade for good, legitamite items and make my character his best. Take warning, people will offer you a free item if you do them a favor. NEVER EVER believe it. They are people who are out to scam you. For example one guy wanted me to go to a site and vote him for his clan leader and I'd get a good free wand. As soon as i clicked his name on the site, the Diablo screen popped back up, I had no control of my mouse and my character lost all his items (which were all extremely rare). So unless people just give you the stuff or throw it on the ground, it is not worth the risk.
Diablo 1 and 2 without the expansion are fun games also, but Diablo 2 Expansion is the best. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes fantasy role-playing (like Heroes of Might and Magic series), and this set specifically so you can get a taste of how Diablo got so great and progressed.

Summary: Addictive
Review: I gave this to my husband for Christmas last year, and he didn't surface from this game for about two weeks. It's intricate, imaginative, even fun to watch. The only thing I would change, if I were the creator of the game, would be to make winning more exciting, make the landscapes become more beautiful, make the townspeople throw a party - something! Overall, it's pretty brilliant and very absorbing, and stands up well to repeated play over time.

Summary: Hackers ruined these games online
Review: Great game, Great expansion. But for a short period of time, hackers duped the crap out of an item which cause me to stop playing for a while. The orginal Diablo is destroyed online but still fun to play single player.
