Can Blizzard Make Diablo 3 Work on Consoles?

Whether or not you feel that Diablo 3 could work on the console platform, the notion of a killer PC action RPG reaching the consoles could be a defining moment for the gaming industry. Why, you ask? Because its arguable that consoles have missed out on some of the most engaging experiences of the last generation due to the flexibility of the PC platform and the limited nature of console controllers.

Such a stupid article and topic. Dungeon Siege 3 and Torchlight have been released in the last 12 months and prove Diablo 3 would work just fine with a controller. Problem I see as that the greedy Activision would not want to share any monies from the Auction House with Sony and Microsoft.

This is because Bobby Kotex is scum and I hope he loses 100's of millions from the Zampella, West, Infinity Ward case.

what about the money auction thingy? And Battle.net? There are more things to consider.

This is from an awsome game called Lineage & wouldn't work on consoles.. maybe with ps move though..

Battle.net could be used. Assassins creeds uses uplay built in, portal 2 uses steamworks, COD uses elite etc etc.

Can't see an auction couldn't be done?

As for controls, D3(as well as previous iterations) can literally be played with one hand 95% of the time lol

Also,
controller have 4 shoulder buttons & 4 face buttons....thats 8 buttons

Watch this rocket science:
D PAD UP = 8
D PAD DOWN = 8
D PAD LEFT = 8
D PAD RIGHT = 8

32 minimum inputs with a controller.

rocket science, GamingPerson........rocket science.

Diablo III seems well suited for the iPad!

Ducky5122d ago

I think the first step is getting it to work on PC.
=p

kevnb5122d ago

sure, but of course its better suited to mouse and keyboard and the pc community. I can just hear the xbox live kids yelling racist insults now!

Blizzard Wants Faster Diablo Releases and More Expansions

Blizzard reveals plans to speed up Diablo releases with more frequent expansions and updates as the franchise moves toward a live-service future.

All I want is a physical disc release of remastered D2 that doesn't require online check-ins.

VonAlbrecht87d ago

Ah, more and fast - the antithesis of careful and good

I've lost complete interest. Too much FOMO with seasons as it is, now it's expansions? No thanks.

Michiel198986d ago

what fomo? everything gets reset each season and you start new characters unless you're playing on the regular servers and then you're already maxxed anway and just need to participate in the new season stuff.

Michiel198986d ago

i played only during launch and i found the ones in that battlepass to be absolute dogwater, the only ones that looked somewhat cool were the paid ones in the store and i wont bother with either. The game itself was just so hollow, there were no cool builds cause every synergy was just "x or y skills does more dmg or has this extra effect" almost no experimentation needed, couldnt give a rats ass about armor if the core of the game is boring af.
