Not worth it!

If you don't mind playing a game that shuts down after 75% of play, this is for you. Sadly, after 13 levels it becomes frustrating and boring with little tools to complete the game. Fun to a certain level ending as a major dissapointment. Wait for the $1.00 bin.

Diablo - Vivendi Universal

Classic

This game has totally infinite replay value, and is easily in my top 10 of all time with Marathon, Thief, Alice, and others. I got it at least 5 years ago (more I think) and I'm playing it again right now. I don't think I'll ever totally stop playing it. The sequel is fantastic too, but I like the feel of this one more. Too bad Blizzard just rehashes themselves these days (although the games are still decent). This game has been cloned so many times... just look at Dungeon Siege.

Vivendi Universal - Diablo

An action classic

This game was and still is a fun adventure. While the game mechanics are fairly repetitive, click to hack and slash, it does offer random maps, a large assortment of items, and strategy in the form of monster resistances/immunities.

By today's standards this sounds weak, yet in reality it has the simple style that makes it easy to learn and hard to put down. Quickly, you get sucked into doing just one more level since you flew through the last one so quickly, only to spend an hour or more carefully picking your way through, so as not to be overwhelmed.

Easily accessible and playable again and again by yourself or with a group of friends, keeps Diablo a worthwhile value.
