Diablo 3 for PS3 released today!


Recommended Posts

It is just a silly, watered down version of the game. ARPG's are not meant to be played with a controller, but it does look like Blizzard did a decent job with the controls.

 

Agreed.

 

I played it on 360 but I doubt there are many differences between it & the PS3 version. With that said, it comes across as a very watered down "noob" friendly version, which is not how you should experience D3. Of course the reason behind it is because of the lack of AH, the looting & the differences between the platforms gaming styles.

 

It's definitely not a better game on the console though which is what I found puzzling from the reviews this week. Having an extra 13 months development you expect all the bug fixes to be included by now. I'd be more worried if they hadn't.

 

The menus are good and I'd say they've managed to improve upon what Torchlight did on 360, but it's obviously not as straightforward as the PC UI.

 

Will be interesting to see sale numbers and if RoS is ported.

I'm quite impressed with the game so far.  The UI has been completely redesigned altogether and optimized for console/controller use.  They did a better job with it than I thought.  And there's no always-online DRM or Auction House which is great.  The 4 player local co-op is still one of its best selling points so far, it makes for a great multiplayer beat-em-up.

Please let me know if this game plays well with a controller...

 

 

I played the demo and it seems fine. Only PC purists would dismiss it.

Surprised by how decent the frame rate runs. Much better game without the auction house. Never thought I'd say it, but console > PC for a Blizzard title.
