    Sounds interesting. I wonder if by "more accessible" they also mean free to play? Interested to see what genre their new IP will fill. They already have the fantasy realm well covered so....

    Awesome job, I've loved the new design since day one and who can argue with making things easier to find and focusing more on D3

    Holy shit man, where do you live. I'm moving there NOW.
    I've never heard of a (Good, Decent, Usable) PC or Laptop for under 600.
    We pay more than that for a good monitor in most civilized parts of the world.

    You can build a PC that can run Crysis (used as a high end benchmark most of the time) at 40 FPS. Here is the link Build A kick-ass $500 gaming PC . If you build it yourself a PC can be had pretty cheap. Plus since this article is a little old prices have probably gone down even more.

    Trying to figure out a routing diagram with only the outputs of show ip route on the routers is pissing me off. I can't imagine doing code; you guys are crazy.

    I apologize for flaming you Odin. It's just frustrating hearing all these complaints about things when we really don't have a solid idea of how the game is really going to be. You did give really valid points and were not just throwing out garbage. I guess I was more angry at the guy who posted on BNet.

    I agree it sucks stats are auto now too, but we don't know what might replace that or even trump that and be more fun and useful than stats.

    In my mind the OP has done an awesome job by constructively pointing out whats wrong with this game in his opinion compared to Diablo II.

    Please keep in mind I've never played this game so all my writing is based around what they' had been showingn us lately.

    I have nothing wrong with complaints that are constructive, but complaining about the graphics is just a waste. They have stated time and time again that they are not changing them.

    Also, most complaints are about systems that are still in development or complaints about how this or that won't work when we don't know all of the game features.

    I think your final point proves my case. I think most people complaining have never played the game...because all I have seen from reviewers who have has been nothing but positive.

    I think it's hilarious how much people complain; God that guy in the BNet post is still complaining about the colors and how he thinks it looks like WoW. Bash is right though, read a lot of articles from PAX and everyone says how it brings back D2 memories....

    I honestly don't care, I had a 360 for about six months and maybe only played it a month. After I built my new computer there was no point in keeping it. All it basically is IMO is a console just trying to be a PC. Pretty much every feature that made it what it was is done on the PC and done better. Plus lots of games are multi-platform now; so many of the games on consoles are also on PC (and in many cases better on PC, but also worse if it's a bad port).

    posted a message on Mac or PC?
    Well, macs are more used for development from what I've heard (ie game design, sound engineering, etc) at least that's where its strengths lie. From the best of my knowledge though, Mac parts are not upgradable (ie have fun shelling out tons of money buying a new Mac when your old one becomes an expensive doorstop) Also Windows 7 is supposed to be taking some of the better liked Mac OSX features from what I've read. You will also probably be limited on the games you can buy as I think a lot of companies don't support Mac (not 100% on this). Basically I would go PC if you want to game and if you know how to build em you can make a pretty cheap gaming rig that can hold its own.

    Oh and as far as the 32 and 64 debate; won't matter with Windows 7 as it ships with both a 32bit and 64bit version. Even if you buy a pre-built system most companies offer a free upgrade to Windows 7.

    This wiki is pretty much pointless. There's already been a Diablo wiki around for years. Just update that one:

    http://diablo.wikia.com/wiki/Diablo_Wiki

    This site will be considered an official fan site and will be linked from the Diablo 3 website when the game is released. Therefore probably thousands will become a part of this community and will use the Wiki. Besides no one said you had to work on it.

    Well, I've uploaded all the pics of Monk skills that I can capture. I put them as thumbs, but I dunno, they seem so small.......

    Well, if they are dependent on motion, we could make skill stages! Like, for one skill, we would have three jpegs/pics, each for one stage of that skill! That way, we could show the entire effectiveness of the skill in the Wiki!

    Yeah, that's how I did them of course, but I dunno they just look "bland" for lack of a better word. Maybe I'm being too critical?

    Added a few jpegs from gameplay videos for the monk....I dunno, they just seem hard to "read" to me since it seems all the monks skills are more dependent on motion...any comments/suggestions.

    I should get back on; I did like all the D3 skills I think, pictures and all. Maybe I should do the monk. Was also doing missing monster info pages for D2. I'll lend a hand; hell will give me something to do.

    Just finished The Sandbox which was stories from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars told by troops over there. Next I will probably finish City of Big Shoulders, a history of Chicago.
