It seems that a lot of people focus on the fact that Diablo is a very dated game by today's standards. Obviously, there comes a time when a game no longer appeals to the eye, and is shoved aside in favor of a game with the latest 3D graphics. But.....is that game any good, or is it just a hollow display of beautiful graphics and no substance? Diablo is a game of substance and downright sophistication, even by today's standards. I say this because it has a pretty rich storyline, and is complemented by a darkness that is second to none. Furthermore, the music (which is usually ignored by gamers) really makes this game. Sure, as one travels through every level of the labrynth, it does get a little repetitive at times, but one never knows when danger is lurking nearby. What I really enjoy about this game is its extremely user-friendly interface, which allows for the whole game to be played with the mouse. Also, this game is compatible with any computer today, as it uses very little memory. I like games that don't call for a patch because it's overloaded with goodies that aren't conducive with one's system. Diablo is an all-around great playing experience that will have the player on the edge of their seat at all times. Leveling up isn't so easy at times, nor is finally getting to use special magical weapons or powers; they have to be earned the old-fashioned way through grit and patience. This game provides hours and hours of old-school RPG gaming on a Saturday night. Turn out the lights and immerse yourself in the dark world of Diablo!!! 10/10

This was an excellent game. Having played the Diablo 2 I decided to play the first one to get a good round feeling for the franchise before the third one comes out. I am happy to say that this game did not disappoint me in any way. From top to bottom this game was 5 stars. Addicting game play, challenging bosses, awesome weapons, good story, and some of the best music I have ever heard in a game. Recommend to anyone who loves old school games and would like a taste of the past.

Good game, especially for an older one. Only 2 real complaints: Character movement speed (walk only), and the color doesn't come out right on Windows 7

Man I love Diablo. When my granddaughter lost the cd I was ticked. I got another copy and now from time to time I just sit back and kill off some hours and characters getting lost in the dungeons again. I can't remember how many times I have beaten the game or it has beaten me, but it is fun to try something new and see how a new character stacks up against the old ones. Playability of the newer games just doesn't stack up in my opinion. But that's me. I want games that make me think, and always I want games that can be played again and again to see if you can beat your own scores. Diablo is fun to drag out from time to time and try again.

this item was in perfect condition. thank you so much! now all i have to do is create more time so i can play it, work to jobs and go to college. fun stuff. thanks much!

Great dungeon crawl, challenging, old school graphics but runs great on older model computers, fantastic random dungeon generator ensures that every game is fresh and different

Diablo is probably my favorite D&D style hack-and-slay game. You go on quests to earn experience points for your character, whether a warrior, rogue, or sorcerer. The warrior is very easy for beginners to use, but you can develop more advanced skills (e.g. magic) for him throughout the game.

At the time this came out it was simply amazing.
Now its really really dated.
Your not missing out on much story if you played the 2nd one and not the first, there wasn't much in the line of story.

If you missed it and want to see what all the talk is about, burning through the game on single player isn't very long or hard so try it out.
Then if you want the real experience, you will spend hours and hours trying to find the cow level, just to realize everyone is full of $#!t.

If you plan on taking your guy to 50, I would recommend the sorcerer.
You end up putting out way more damage than the other two along with mana shield, nearly doubling your health.

I'll give a 5/5 for being awesome for its time.
Diablo 3 will be out someday (prolly like 2012)
