Diablo III

Back in 2000 when Diablo 2 had just been released I was one of the kids who went to the store that day to buy it. Diablo 2 is probably one of Blizzard Entertainments most popular games. It is classified as an Action/Adventure game and lets players choose from a selection of 7 different classes. The single player adventure was good all by itself, but Blizzard went farther than that. They allowed up to 8 players to join over a game on Battle.net and play the single player story with friends or random people. After you've beaten the game you have only unlocked the next difficulty in the game, Nightmare, which gives all the enemies in the game an increase in health and attributes. After you've beaten "Nightmare" and thought you were the best ever you have only unlocked the hardest difficulty on Diablo 2 known as "Hell". In Hell mode every enemy is greatly increased and ALL of them are at least immune to 1 element. 99% of the time if you want to play on Hell difficulty you're going to need to have friends or other people join you to conquer the game. After Hell mode you are finally finished and then get to work on building your character level, or helping other people in their quests. On top of the story you could PvP (Player vs. Player) to make people test their characters strengths against others. This game is practically impossible to get bored with. Each different character type you choose has 3 different types of ways you can build that character up. Making the choices almost limitless in building a character to do almost any specific job. I played that game for 5 years and still occasionally stop on it to do a few games on battle.net. Now, in 2009 I'm anxiously awaiting the release of Diablo 3. The game doesn't have an official release date, but many expect it to be around the Holiday season of this year. Thinking about the release date myself I'm very doubtful that this amazing game will be here this year. I've seen previews for it and while they do look really good and just make me want it that much more, the game looks like it's still going to take a lot more work. Surely enough though on the official release day of Diablo 3 anyone who knows me can probably see me waiting for it to hit the shelves in our local Wal-Mart.
