So Diablo 2 got 8.5 from Gamespot and the expansion got a 8.2 from gamespot, so does that mean Diablo 3 is being hyped AA?

Ignoring the fact that it will most likely be in my top 3 favourite games of all time, I think Gamespot will give it an AA, but what do you in system wars think?

AAA, despite Diablo 2 being an AA game, I still think D3 will hit AAA on the sole basis of Blizzard designing the game.

I'm not hyping it any score determined by a reviewer, so much as I'm hyping it as one of my favorite games ever. To reiterate, I don't care what Gamespot gives it, the only way I'll even find out is System Warriors going crazy about the review. By that time, I'll likely be playing, and loving the game.

Doesn't matter because it's another game that all the fans will go back to. It'll be a really good game though.

I'm in the same boat, but it looks like my laptop will run this game. I love Blizzard for this.

i played d2 more than any other game, I didnt even look at game ratings at that time. It was a AAAA game to me. The only game I might of played more is starcraft.

i was kinda ticked at first for diablo 3 dropping the necromancer.butafter seeing the video of the Voodoo priest/shaman in action.i changed my tune.

and who cares what some toolbox reviewer on gamespot rates this. Diablo 3 will destroy every form of life on this planet regardless of its score.

As others have stated, this game is going to be AAA quality no matter what score Gamespot gives it.

It's got to be AAA or close to it.

Since when did Blizzard games not get AAA hype. This is BLIZZARD!

What actually is Diablo? I here alot about the game/games. I picked up a copy in my local game store and looking at the back of the box it looks....erm.....rubbish.

I AM NOT saying its bad - i've not played it! Just wondered what all the fuss is about and if worth me playing the game.

It be great if it did, but it won't. the game isn't using modern graphics. And we all know reviewers are graphics ******.

D: No. It's like a dungeon crawling game with experience, levels, skills that you gain with points gained from levelling and quests, quests, bosses, mini-bosses, and lots of loot. It's great to reveal the map :o and there are gems and jewels and shrines and locked boxes and uniques/rares/exceptionals and runes and runewords and crafted and etc. etc. etc. It's a fun game, and you can co-op with others.
