"Paul Sams of Blizzard says they haven't ruled out Diablo III for consoles, and are currently talking to the first parties," Tweeted GameTrailers TV editor Geoff Keighley, who might know a thing or two

Of course, PC will be fantastic. But filthy console poors should have to pay to access this party.

This would actually be pretty good on the Xbox 360. I could actually play with friends!

You're forgetting "nameless RTS from weird euro dev that is somehow the most incredibly awesome game ever according to PC gamers, but is such a pain in the ass to figure out and so un-fun that you say 'fuck it' and decide to enjoy something playable instead"



and I'm all for Diablo 3 on 360.  Sacred 2 has awesome controls.  They could be refined further.

I think I would get more enjoyment out of a controller than with a mouse, for this type of game. I understand I could always use the 360 controller on the PC, though.

Why, because I like the tactile response of using an analog stick and pressing buttons versus just pointing and clicking with a mouse?

I'm a bit meh...if they tried to fit SC2 onto consoles I might care more, but Diablo has always been a pretty natural fit for consoles and shouldn't suffer too much by making the leap.

Nice. Of course, they share it with Valve under a non-compete contract.

1) Loot management will suck on consoles
2) Battle.net will be awful with MS' standards for online games

Love my console, but this one is a definite PC buy.

This is unsurprising. All of the other Diablo games were ported to consoles.

Diablo 2 wasn't
