I first want to start off by saying i don't ever really write reviews for anything but I felt I needed to here due to such a great game and great deal this package truly is.
I first experienced the original Diablo back in '98 or '99 i believe and was addicted to the game more so than any of the PS1 or N64 titles I had in my posession. I loved it and played it for hours and hours as a teen. The way the game kept you entertained was the way each dungeon level was randomized and left open a door of endless possibilitys. It really felt like you could play the game over and over and never get bored with it with such a feature. There is numerous things I can say about just the first Diablo game that you receive in the bundle but I'll stop here.
I haven't played Diablo 2 really unfortunately. Only for maybe 20 mins at max but from the experience it seems to be the better for the 2 games as well as having a still thriving online community. Considering all that you get with this package and for the price it's unbeatable.
You get not only the 1st Diablo game which also has online play but you get Diablo II and it's expansion pack and the full strategy guide thrown in. It's a great deal, going online with Diablo II is more fun than ever, I'm just glad Blizzard hasn't decided to close off the online functions for these old classics yet. Do yourself a favor and if you are a fan of great RPG classics GET THIS GAME! It has over 100+ hours of gameplay and that's not including online but with maybe 300-350+ hours.
good, with some issues on an intel-based Macbook

Everybody knows Diablo - a great game!
On a MacBook that I bought recently (it is Intel Core Duo-based, running OS X), I had to turn off OpenGL (use software graphics instead of hardware) to be able to play the game. There was no such problem with the StarCarft game.
It still plays prefectly with these settings, which is not a great surprise as the game was optimized for much slower (Pentium 1 or G3) machines.
Addicted...it figures

My brother talked me into buying this game. I had no interest before since I am mainly a Command & Conquer fan. I bought it only so we could play together online and by crossover direct connect. Once I installed it and started playing, I play it all the time...when I get home from work, on the weekends when I don't absolutely have to do chores, and just about any other time I can squeeze in. I read reviews about the game before I bought it and I thought it funny that this one guy said his wife would casually walk by, glance at him playing the game, and tell him he was addicted. I've never had my wife tell me that until now...ironic. This is my warning to anyone who hasn't yet bought this game, "be careful or you may get divorced, broke, unemployed, hated, insomnia, lethargy, etc. and not neccesarily in that particular order". Consider yourself warned...great game though!
Almost a Decade Old & Still Great

Diablo II is almost ten years old, and still this game is one of the best PC games, in my opinion. It is addicting, the graphics are great, and the online multiplayer is amazing. I definitely recommend any gamers check this out.
this is for kids with fast eye hand coordination

i was given this set as a birthday gift, because I'd mentioned several years ago I enjoyed MYST. Well, where MYST required thinking and reasoning as your main requirements, this Diablo stuff is mainly a blood and gore kill or be killed game. I am in my early 40's and apparently lack the eye hand coordination to fight "monsters". I was very disappointed.

This one of the best games made by Blizzard. It's fun, has a good story and excelents graphics and cinematics. This game doesn't need a super pc for enjoying it. Also, it's very addictive and all the characters have pros and contras, bu is cery awesome. If you want to buy a good video game, buy this you won't regreat it
NICE!
