This game is a great classic for the PC. I remember years ago playing it every day, for so long trying to get to the highest level and get awesome gear. Even coming back to it years later, it's still as fun as ever, as if I hadn't even left.
Some new things since that day of course but all in all it's one of the best RPG experiences I've had to date. People online are mostly friendly, the game is easy to pick up. And there's no real consequence to not knowing how to build characters. No matter how you decide to develop your character, it's generally going to be good and powerful.
The only complaint I would have is online, on Battle.net, all of the ad bots that now populate the game lobbies and even join games for 20-30 seconds tops, advertising for some site to pay for items. But who can really stop that? They'll always find a way around the anti-bot mechanisms.
Also end-game (post level 90 and above) is somewhat lacking, in my opinion. Most people use their characters to find better stuff or duel others. I myself have no interest in dueling, and the trading economy can get a little boring. But hey, unless you try to power-level, the trip from level 1 to 99 can take a long time.

These games are excellent, but Diablo II was released in 2000, and the expansion was released in 2001. Diablo I is even older, and that game was little more than a stripped down clone of Rogue (a free, open source computer RPG) with some prerendered graphics added and a cheezy story.
So in essence, the idea for the game is unoriginal, and the latest content in this package was released 7 years ago, which is fast approaching a decade. Yet, they want us to pay $40 for this. I'm sorry, but that makes absolutely no sense; at best this entire package could be valued at $20, though in all practicality it could be sold for less than that (republished as a $15 single-disc).
Blizzard is ripping you off. Show them how you feel by not buying it--borrow it from a friend.

I had played the first Diablo years ago and loved it then. Finally got a little extra time to try out Diablo II along with it's Expansion Pack. II was better than the first.

Diablo II is by far one of the greatest games ever made for the computer. Absolutely incredibly fun and entertaining. There is a problem with the battle chest load discs for the mac:
You cannot download Diablo 2 and then download Diablo 2:LOD as separate downloads, it will not recognize Lord of Destruction (LOD) as an installable disc with all macs running 10.4 or higher, the way to get around this is to download them all-together. However when you do that, you have to select the download without ever putting in the cinematic disc, in other words, the download that is 1.3 GB (it will say it's a full download of D2 and LOD, just without the movies.) As opposed to the 1.7 GB one which will contain the movies.
Also, you may need to run the game in a separate window for it to display properly. For some reason it was very distorted on my 23-Inch Imac, and when I pressed control + "M" it will run the game in a separate window and fixed the distortion. You can max the game to 800 x 600 after installation through the games graphics menu (which looks quite sharp in a separate, smaller window), however pre-installation it only says it gives you 600 x 400 as being available.
Anyway, I wish I had known that before trying and failing 3 different downloads, so I thought I'd pass it along.

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.
