Summary: Well worth the wait
Review: After the long anxious wait, I finally have Diablo 2, and having completed the first Act, I am blown away by the depth and vast improvements this game holds over its predecessor. The original game had the magic of being somewhat simple in its scope (hack and slash your way, level by level) yet being completely addictive and plain fun. They haven't veered from that at all with Diablo 2, yet they've added so many new elements to it. The new character classes all have their own skills and abilities, far more so than the original 3. You can specialize in various offensive and defense skills and magic as you progress up the ranks. There are countless new weapons and items to find, and much more diversity in their types.The graphics aren't leaps and bounds ahead of the original, but they nonetheless are beautiful. The second Act, in a Middle-Eastern type desert region, is breathtaking. If you enjoyed Diablo, it's a no-brainer that you'll love the sequel. It's a clean, well-designed product with great graphics and complex yet easy-to-understand gameplay. Without a doubt, it was well worth the 3 year wait.

Summary: Addictive!
Review: I am warning you. You will get addicted to Diablo II. The game will pull you into a different world that won't take the usual 10 or so hours to beat. It's multiplayer mode lets you defeat deamons with other Mac&PC users all over the net, adding more to the depth of this game. Watch out, you will find yourself adding more and more powerful weapons and spells to your character each and every day, bringing you further and further to the point where you will eat, sleep, and dream DIABLO II! You have been warned...

Summary: Possibly the best Mac Game I have ever played. . .
Review: First, let me say that I have been with the Macintosh since the late eighties. I always yearned to have access to the best games that my PC friends could play. Then, I happened on Diablo II. I love this game. With this type of game, the person usually tires of it after one time through. Not with D2. I've played it three times completely through with three different characters. I still have more characters to go. I had zero problems installing it on my G4. It wants some hard drive space and memory, but nothing out of the ordinary for this type of a game. Installation was not a problem. If you want a thinking person's game, go elsewhere. This is pretty much a shoot anything that moves type of game and, in my opinion, the best in its class for the Mac. Hands down. In fact, I like it SO much, I'm heading over to buy the expansion pack as soon as I sign off this review. Buy it. If you like fantasy games, you'll love this.

Summary: Corrupted Brain Cells!
Review: At first it is rather amusing to beat swarms of bad guys into piles of pulp, but after the 10,573rd kill, one realizes that there seems to be little more to the game than pointing and clicking really fast. There's lots of bad guys out there, each of which gives you the most infitinesmal amount of experience. I get the idea that evil has taken a hold on these lands. After you've fought corrupted porcupines, corrupted crows, corrupted supermodels(that you regrettably have to slaughter by the bushel), corrupted fly swarms, corrupted blacksmiths, corrupted vultures... After awhile one can't but ask if the evil corrupted CHAIR is next. After awhile of playing, the small things get you. How can you resurrect a human skeleton from a porcupine corpse? How can you attack a swarm of bugs with a sword? Why does this 'special' corrupted bug swarm have an individual name and how does it drop magic items when you kill it? Why does that 9'7 550 pound guy pop like a water balloon filled with red paint if you hit him once or twice? This is nitpicking, but most game designs have at least some attention to detail. And one would think the highest aspiration in the game is to kill the very lords of hell. No! The greatest challenge is to take on the ferocious halberd wielding cows in the 'secret' cow level! That's when I decided to put in an end in my assault on the demonic forces. No matter what my little character does, he has to get corrupted at the end so there can be a sequel.

Summary: Good...but it should have been great.
Review: I loved Diablo. My wife and I played it relentlessly for months. We were both extremely excited about Diablo II, and rusjed out to buy it the first day it was released. We've played through it several times as several different characters....and we're disappointed. There are many things the game does well, like great music and voice acting, good quests and locations, good monsters, but there are too many things that obviously just weren't thought through. Many people have complained about the lack of a save system. add my voicee to that. also, the fact that one can only store a limited amount of gold and there's rarely, if ever, anything worth buying. Dying, and then having to make your way back to your corpse without benefit of armor or weapons is just stupid, and really detracts from the pleasure of the game, as does the fact that you can't change camera angles, meaning that your character, or the monster he's fighting, is frequently invisible behind a pillar or something. Technically, the lag time that this game experiences is enough to drive me nuts. After the glacially long wait that we all experienced, I expected much more. Blizzard really blew it on this one.

Summary: Wow. Awesome Game.
Review: I have recently had the amazing world of Diablo 2 revealed to me. I played the original Diablo, but after reaching about the sixteenth level, i got really tired of it, as fun as it was. Now, playing Diablo 2 with its vast environments, i feel like im in heaven. Diablo 2 is not just a cool game, but a well made one too. The gameplay is slick and fast, but so fast that you feel overrun. The storyline is amazing, the environments are interesting, new, and occasionally quite creepy, and the inventory system is wel thought out. The new addition of your "private stash" immensly aids the gameplay. Other additions, like the gems, ethereal items, and mercenaries make the game even more enjoyable. My only real complaint is how poor the graphics are. They pretty much just are plain old bad. They could have made them much better.
All this said, I think that Diablo 2 is one of the best RPG's i have played in a long time, worthy of being compared to modern hits such as Elder Scroll 3: Morrowind and Baldur's Gate. Even with its poor graphics, its still one of the greatest games ever, and it should be played by every PC gamer out there
