Diablo 3 Review at CalmDownTom

CalmDownTom says, "Diablo 3 is the newest release from one of the most successful and profitable games developers of all time, and the amount of money they have spent on the presentation is obvious from the very start. An amazing animated sequence sets the scene for the adventure to come. Even at this early stage though there seem to be issues with the game. The animated sequence seems to depict events that never occur once you begin playing."

Note this is a humorous article on the issues of Diablo 3 as much as a review.

How did this get approved? It's obvious trolling.

-update-
o I read the joke part.

TROLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!

Great read though! The game's a blast - when it isn't defective, that is.

SleazyChimp4370d ago

I don't see how this is trolling? Making fun of a games downfalls is not trolling. The always online feature in this game is a bunch of BS and I hope it burns Blizzard badly. That away the next epic franchise that wants to incorporate always online will think twice. I love the Diablo series, and fought hard to not pick the 3rd one up. But as I see from all the problems I made the right choice. If everybody that bought that game were to return it, Blizzard and Activision would be shittin their pants right now. And in 3 mos. we would see a re-release of DIII without the damn DMR.

It won't hurt Blizzard at all. The game sold millions of copies. Gamestop can't return games to the owners, they have to sell them all over again somehow.

I heard digital copies pre-ordered in Asia, didnt even get their keys...

Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.

I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Approval meant something.

All those games had to release without bugs.

Comebacks shouldnt be a thing in videogames. Just saying.

Diablo III - Still a Huge Draw in the Face of Diablo IV

Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.

Palitera402d ago

Are you comparing a continuously improved 10+ years old masterpiece with the... beta of an unreleased game?

kevco33401d ago

Heh, yeah. There's no comparison in here! Its a commentary on how III is still very playable over a decade later.
