    posted a message on Announcing the DiabloFans "Site Update" Beta, Diablo 3 For PS3 and Xbox 360 Giveaway
    4 player Co-Op Xbox 360

    Having been a big fan of the original Diablo 1 and 2 games when I was younger, I have always enjoyed the single player Diablo franchise on the PC. Sometimes as we grow older, we arrange our priorities in life a bit differently to accommodate our changed life style and/or life choices.

    Married and with a 7 year old son, I tend to not have enough time to spend in front of my PC, other than for work. And because of our insane work schedule my wife and I have, we try to spend every minute all three of us can together when we can, especially during the week before we all go to bed.

    Using our Xbox 360 as a bit of a multimedia center, we use it as a way for all of us to unwind, whether through Netflix, Music Streaming, or even gaming. Finding a 3 player game on Xbox 360 can be difficult, especially one for everyone to enjoy.

    Initially, we had been playing the Marvel Ultimate Alliance game, as all three of us can play as different characters and really have a blast, and it is very easy to use! When I got my hands on the Diablo 3 Demo for Xbox 360, I was impressed with the fact that all of us could play (wizards and barb) and just have fun, with an increase in variable button options. Even as an M game, there hasn’t been too much gore (I think I had it turned all the way down). My son and I love the Skeletons and Skeleton King, and both of us can play while my wife is near by reading a magazine or relaxing near by – or even jump right in! - before we all head to bed.

    4 player co-op locally is by far my favorite feature, and we can play offline without ever connecting to the internet and at our own pace. There is no need for multiple PCs (and my wife is a MAC user, and son too young to have his own) in different rooms, when we can all play in the same area. It has the potential to really share the Diablo experience with a wider base of people and new fans!
