Diablo-3-Ultimate-Evil

One of the most surprising experiences for me in terms of gaming recently, has to be Diablo 3 on console. I sat down a couple months back to play it for the first time on Xbox 360. And it was good. It was damn good. PC gamers have had a chance to play the latest expansion of that game for a while now, and you can bet that I’m eager for the PS4 version. Here’s a trailer to get you pumped up.

The trailer above also showcases the new Crusader class. He’s heavy, built like a horrible mother-in-law and can deal almost as much damage. The Ultimate Evil Edition isn’t exclusive to PlayStation 4 by the way.

It’ll be out on PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox One and Xbox 360 on August 19 as well, and will take players from the start of Diablo 3 all the way through the latest Reaper of Souls act. The game has a bunch of other additions, such as new monsters, catch-up co-op for weaker players, new lore and the chance to send killer monsters to your friends.

I rather like that. I’m enough of a jerk to spend hours upon hours grinding my way into Nephalem godhood, just so that I can allow a monster to slay me and become a bane for Gavin when he starts the game. Who else wants to be my friend then?

    I can just imagine Gavin’s terror upon starting a game & being subjected to this hideous monster.

    Never thought D3 would play as well as it did on the console. Well done again Blizzard.

    I haven’t been on Diablo for a little while… had to kick my addiction after getting my 4th character to lvl 70.

        Yeah, just saw that… (the joys of the D3 site)… I battle playing with the DH, really enjoyed lvling my Barb, Wiz, Crusader and Monk though.

        I still want at least one lvl 70 of each class… but then I won’t gear up my current lvl 70’s, and getting to where you can play on torment takes quite a while sometimes.

          Blizzard acknowledged a survivability issue with the DH, but have apparently fixed it. 2 levels away from my 4th level 70.

            I’ll have to give a DH a go again and see how I fare… I kept running into multiple groups of elites or rares or both on normal… was a nightmare!

            I was playing with my wizard this morning and managed to pull 3 champion packs at at the same time.

            Yeah, I didn’t have any issues lvling with my wizard… they’re a bit insane.

    Think this should be called the “As much money as Blizzard can grab for 1 extra act” Edition

        He is. He is sensitive to the force of a bullet being shot at his smug little face.

        He’s too old to be trained as a Jedi.
        His only choice is to become a Sith.
