- Why would you play Diablo 3 on console? actually dont answer that, there is no reasonable answer! (my opinion, dont get angry!)

Curiosity? I have played a ton of Diablo 3 and the expansion on PC, and I like it enough and am familiar enough with it that I am very curious how they translated it to consoles. Especially since it has received rave reviews for consoles as well, I am interested to know what the experience is like.

4 player local coop. Making Diablo 3 possibly the new Gauntlet.

I can see this. The 2 player local co-op is the PS1 version's strongest selling point, IMO.

Man I tried playing some of the atari flashback 5(that new flashback machine) and I couldn't do it for more than 30 minutes I don't know if it was the graphics(which do seem really bright), music, or both but dang my head started hurting o_O I didn't have a problem playing the web version of adventure so there's that...(that one just pissed me off since I had no clue what the heck i was doing ). Also had to freaking press reset on the controller just to get it to work the first time what the heck?

It sounds like you have not played an actual Atari console...You have to hit reset on those things all the time. (At least with the "flashback" consoles, the reset button is on the controller...)

Yeah resetting is an integral part of the Atari lifestyle.

[darsparx]

Yeah but just to get the controller to work(which it doesn't say that needs to be done in the manual, kinda figured it out on my own somehow) is kinda off or a little odd for a newer clone in my opinion(and I say that after being used to have to take out and clean gba carts several times when they decide to be a drama queen and tell me when they want me to play them ). Maybe it didn't help I'm fighting back yawns right now and might be time for a nap(heck I barely made it through a episode of arrow so there might be some merit to the being tired thing )

Could be worse....you could be playing Raiders of the Lost Ark without the manual.

Or E.T.

I don't know, adventure isn't easy without a manual either(and I say that after I got eaten twice only managed to figure out how to pick up items and move so...yeah )
