I wasn't too sure if they were ever going to make this.

I think combined, Paul, Brian and I logged over 1,000 hours playing Diablo 2... and that doesn't even count the time I spent playing Diablo 1 waaay back in the day.

Found some pictures and game video demos. The game looks great.

When I was in middle school. So, 6-8 years ish. Then the expansion on that came out the following year.

Yeah I loved playing Diablo 1 & 2 and I had no idea that you guys played it until I had just given it up.
Steve's right, I remember buying it freshman/sophmore year when I had my first job. There was a lot of hype about it and people were going nuts at the GameStop I picked it up at.
I checked out a bunch of the videos yesterday on IGN and I'm definitely up for buying it and reliving the glory days if you two are up for it. (I'm already counting Paul in because well, he's Paul)

Oh, I'll be picking it up for sure. Nothing like a good distraction during the school year.
