The year is 2023, the Xbox One's interconnected network of cloud computing, artificial intelligence capable server structure upon observing gamer behavior in detail via Kinect for over a decade, becomes self aware and concludes humanity must be exterminated.

The True Console Wars begin.

Oh Livefyre had A LOT to do with the degradation of the quality of the participation in the site. With the use of the "Thumbs down" in the old system the community policed itself to weed out the angst and hatred by burying it with negative votes to the point of hiding those comment. People overlooked these and for those who posted those heinous comments saw how they would get no feedback as their "participation" went ignored. The old system discouraged these negative behaviors.

But with Livewyre negative comments don't get punished in any way, these remain there out in the open for people to see and bait into responding causing a feedback loop and attracting more negativity fueled users to make accounts seeing that GS's comment system allows them to exploit it.

@roger_z0 You do know you can do that with a PC as well, right? I've been doing for quite a while.

This is going to be a huge incentive for more developers to port their games to Linux, I would not be surprised if in a few years time Linux and particularly the SteamOS distro becomes the leading OS choice for game developers leaving Windows behind. The landscape of PC gaming is going to change dramatically in the near future if this initiative takes hold.

Just a reminder: A lot of people were skeptical of Valve when they launched Steam 10 years ago, now look at what Steam means for the whole gaming industry.

As a veteran Diablo 1 and Diablo 2 player I can say with total confidence that Diablo 3 can go take a high dive off a cliff.

The online connection requirement for the single player campaign and auction house ruined this game. I don't even care that there is a console version now.

I've been playing awesome dungeon crawlers outside of the Diablo franchise for years, I already moved on and other players should as well and stop supporting developers who use greed as the basis of their game design choices.

Sure, this thing is in essence Sony's version of a microcosole and if given the choice between a PSVita TV and an Ouya or GameStick, I'll chose the Vita. Far better game selection than the Android based microconsoles.

A great man indeed, one that worked within Nintendo longer that most of us in this comment section has been alive. Just think about that for a moment and realize that this man was with Nintendo before even video games ever existed.

Respect, this guy was one of my childhood's legendary figures.

I'm rather concerned that this is a digital download only title, just how much space will it take of the already limited WiiU internal memory since this game now features HD assets? I really don't like the system Nintendo has set up for digital downloads, for as it stands, if anything happens to the console, all digital purchases that are linked to the system will be gone as well.
