I haven't had any problems.

Blizzard produces games that continue to be popular years after they have been released, Starcraft and Diablo 2 are two examples of games that way outlived the typical game lifecycle.

So is it really any surprise people have high expectations of the games? Console users hate the idea of games that are popular and successful outside of the console market; so they attack peoples excitement for the games, downplay it, declare upcoming games on their systems to be better.

It is a matter of pride and that they think consoles > PC in every way. These games are not coming to consoles; therefore any optimism regarding the announcement has to be criticised, anything less suggests a different platform may have something 'better' than theirs which is of course unacceptable by the platform waring mentality.

In other words if you love your platform; and a different platform gets a good game, you will downplay what that game stands for to reduce the perceived loss to your preferred platform not having it.

Nah, same old SW posts:

D3 looks crap for PC game; rumor that it's going to 360, hermits say they hope not because it'll be dumbed down.

Same ol', same ol'

Yes well, as to that, I wouldn't mind playing it on my PS3, but didn't Blizzard already announce that it was PC exclusive (for now)?

I haven't really noticed that... what are people complaining about?the-very-best

Oh, a variety of things, as people tend to do. Graphics was the latest I've seen.

All I know is yesterday, I was all excited, came in here to see some cool hype thread, and all I saw was bashing. Kind of deflated my eagerness, ever so slightly...sniffle sniffle.;)

I think a lot of the hate is actually directed at Blizzard and not necessarily Diablo III.Jared2720

Ahhh, the anti-conformist have struck again, huh? I see where your coming from.

Diablo 2 is one of my favorite games ever. So much so that I purchased my first PC a few years back, mainly to play that one game.

I'm no PC gamer, not by a long shot, but I've been waiting for this announcement to actually put some money into this peice of crap Dell I have so I can play the next one.

I'm was really surprised (I guess I shouldn't be) to see all the bashing Diablo 3 is getting, if it's anywhere near as good as the first 2, then it should be fantastic. Anybody else as excited as me?
