Diablo II

The Good
Well, here's a vague attempt at making my former review more apetizing, but since I'm not feeling like writing an awful lot like last time let's just stick to the basics, ok?

What's good about the game?

It's fun....the first 5 minutes.

The action figure line rocks.

There is good variation between different character classes.

The game has amazing production values (good quality on almost everything).

Action is fast and furious, even with lots of critters onscreen.

The Bad
Gameplay is boring and repetitive beyond belief.

Storyline is predictable and has virtually no conection to your actions during the game (sense of reward=NONE).

Graphics are not so hot.

Rpg? being able to customize your slayer doesn't make it an rpg.

Too long, too annoying.

Way too over-hyped.

The Bottom Line
Anyway, if you like lots of repetitive gameplay with some flashy stuff added to it, go and get it. Otherwise there are cheaper and better means to entertain yourself.
