EAN: 0014633078824 Platform: PlayStation Editorial Review: Editorial Review: "Monty Haul." "Hack and Slash." If these names mean anything to you, you'll like Diablo. The story is simple and doesn't get in the way of the action: the demon Diablo has set up shop beneath the cathedral on the edge of town, and it's your job to destroy him. Diablo was and is one of the great PC role-playing games, and this PlayStation port holds true to the original. You create your character--Warrior, Sorcerer, or Rogue--and take him or her up in experience levels as you hack your way down, level by level, to the bottom of the dungeon beneath the cathedral, where Diablo awaits. Along the way you gain a lot of cool magical artifacts, weapons, and equipment. These mystical tools define your character as much as or more than the obligatory character stats such as strength, dexterity, and stamina. The game's only flaws are due to its translation to the PlayStation. The controls can be difficult, especially with ranged weapons, and the two-player mode throws both characters on the same screen, often making it problematic to negotiate the various rooms of any given level. Complaints aside, Diablo is a solid hack and slash adventure game. You'd be either a fool or a coward to pass it up. --John Cocking Pros:

 Rating:  - Diablo!!!! King of the Hack & Slash games, comes to PS One!I owned diablo on the pc way before this came out and admittedly, looking at it now it is not ico style graphics. its not meant to be either. this is Hack and Slash at it's best! Hundreds of items, weapons, armor, and so many more! and although this port is Far from Perfect, it IS worth the investment! (**NOTE: because if you think about it as the tech changes pc will not be able to play diablo but ps one and PS2 WILL!**) this game has many quests and deep dungeons to haul vast treasures out ... Read More Rating: - A classicAlways been a big fan of Diablo and love every minute of game time. Rating: - Great!Diablo is a great game hands down. If you like games in which you battle demons and Skeletons and other dangerous creatures, this game is for you! The playstation version of Diablo lets you do some things differently, for example: You have three basic types of characters, the Warrior, the Mage and the Rogue. I like being a Warrior but hes not always useful until I teach him magic! Thats right I have a War Wizard! You can teach the Warrior and the Rogue magic! I love this game! Theres so much to do in ... Read More Rating: - 25 bucks?? WORTH IT!Ok, I kept putting off getting this game because of having the PC Diablo 2 Lord of Destruction and I don't like paying 25 bucks for PS1 games. I usually try to go 15 bucks or less for them since graphics and gameplay are kinda off by today's standards of PS2. And even though I wanted it I felt like I would play it a few minutes and be sick of the controls and graphics. It is an excellent game and it's portable on my PSOne...if you're a fan just get it. The controls are tedious and annoying for awhile ... Read More Rating: - Diablo Ps1Hack & Slash, Every time you play the game it's differen, becasue of the random dungeon design. Upgrade your character, loads of spells weapons armour, missions. You name it, it's got it. Great 2 player action as well. Brilliant! |
