I am surprised that there are 50+ views but no replies .
 
Is the game a PC exclusive? If yes, I would have no interest in this one.
 
I used to play Diablo 2 pretty hardout, but that was a good 5 - 10 years ago, and I don't really have much interest in games anymore (outside the likes of ICC).

It would definitely be one of my favourite games of all time, along with the Age of Empires series and a few others.

Two decades have passed since the demonic lords, Diablo, Mephisto, and Baal, set out across the world of Sanctuary on a vicious rampage, twisting humanity to their unholy will. Yet for those who battled the Prime Evils, the memory fades slowly.
When Deckard Cain returns to the ruins of Tristram Cathedral seeking clues to defeat new stirrings of evil, a fiery harbinger of doom falls from the heavens, striking the very ground where Diablo once entered the world. This fire from the sky reawakens ancient evils and calls the heroes of Sanctuary to defend the mortal world against the rising powers of the Burning Hells once again.

Game Features :
Explore fully realized realms of Sanctuary – the living, breathing gothic fantasy world of Diablo III – rendered in gorgeous 3D.
Battle the unholy forces of the Burning Hells with all-new character classes such as the otherworldly Witch Doctor, or with re-imagined warriors from Diablo’s past, like the powerful Barbarian.
Rain Hell on your enemies and use the interactive environment as a weapon: lay cunning traps, turn destructible objects against your foes, and use environmental obstacles to your advantage.
Experience the intensity of multiplayer Diablo III over an all-new, wickedly enhanced Battle.net platform with numerous enhancements to make connecting with your friends easier, and cooperative gameplay more fun.

The game takes place in Sanctuary, the dark fantasy world of the Diablo series. This world was saved twenty years prior by a handful of unnamed heroes in Diablo II. Warriors that survived the onslaught of the armies of the Burning Hells have gone mad from their ordeals and it is up to a new generation of heroes to face the forces of evil threatening the world of Sanctuary. Players will have the opportunity to explore familiar settings such as Tristram.

Character Definitions :

The Witch Doctor is a new character reminiscent of the Diablo II Necromancer, but with skills more traditionally associated with voodoo culture. The Witch Doctor has the ability to summon monsters, cast curses, harvest souls, and hurl poisons and explosives at his enemies.

The Barbarians will have a variety of revamped skills at their disposal based on the use of their incredible physical prowess. The Barbarian is able to whirlwind through crowds, cleave through swarms, leap across crags, and crush opponents upon landing.

The Wizard is a version of the Sorceress from Diablo II or the Sorcerer from Diablo. The Wizard's abilities range from shooting lightning, fire and ice at their enemies to slowing time and teleporting around enemies and through walls.

The Monk is a melee attacker, using martial arts to cripple foes, resist damage, deflect projectiles, attack with blinding speed, and land explosive killing blows. It combines the melee elements of Diablo II's Assassin class with the "holy warrior" role of the Paladin. Blizzard has stated that the Monk is not related in any way to the Monk class from the Sierra Entertainment-made Diablo: Hellfire expansion.

The Demon Hunter combines elements of Diablo II's Amazon and Assassin classes. Demon Hunters use crossbows as their main weapon and also throw small bombs at enemies. Some of their skills have been revealed and among them are arrow skills such as Chain Arrow.

The Archivist class was included by blizzard , later it was announced as April fool's Day joke tradition on 2009 .
 
Yeah, I tried it. We were discussing it in Random Thoughts a while ago:

I got a guest past off my brother, and finished up to where that allows you to play up to pretty easily. Imo it definitely wasn't as good as Diablo 2 was back in the day, i.e. I'm not going to go out and buy it or anything. It had a real WoW feel about it, just the way the towns were set-up and stuff, and I didn't like it how it pretty much held your hand as you went through the start of the game, telling you exactly how to do every quest (I'm not sure if that continues later on). I liked Diablo 2 because while it had a strong storyline, it still allowed you to go off on your own with most areas being open, unlike D3 where you seem to pretty much just be following a path the whole time (at least at the start I was). Don't get me wrong I still though it was a good game and I enjoyed my few hours or so playing it, but I it didn't live up to as good as I thought it would be.

Yeah, what I played (around half of act one) was very tutorialish. They told you when to use way points etc., and stuff like that. While it took me a while to beat the Skeleton King, I was never really in any danger of dieing. While I'm 99% certain that it's get better as the game goes on, I'm definitely not going to fork out $90ish when I have exams starting in like two weeks, and straight after that I'm going away to the UK for a month. And then when I get back from there I'm already missing the first week of semester two of uni, so I essentially already have no free time for the next few months.
