    This game has sucked up hours and hours of my life... but I'm not complaining. The amount of stuff you can do and gear you can collect in this game is ridiculous. Also, having played this game a bit on PC, I was wondering how the controls would work on a console - I'm happy to report the controls actually work better on consoles than on PC. (is this a 1st? lol.)

    Diablo 3 looks amazing and crisp. The Xbox one controller feels great to use and is responsive with commands and controls. The story is lame and dialogue boring but the voice acting is well done with each class/gender getting a unique voice.

Loot is more balanced, controls feel good and intuitive and visuals are pretty nice. Overall the game is just more fun than my experience on the previous versions though loot 2.0 did improve the PC version. Only frustration for me was still having to pay full price when i owned 2 copies already.

    Xbox Live's online infrastructure boosts the enjoyment (for me, imo) with great social functionality and ease.

    I got this game on a whim while waiting for other, bigger games to come out. Total surprise, loved it. Never played a Diablo game before. The maps are beautiful, the graphics awesome. So glad I "discovered" this game.

    Diablo was a wonderfully designed masterpiece by Blizzard Entertainment. I would recommend this game to most, if not all of my friends as it gives a sense of fun and entertainment. With Ultimate Evil, the enjoyment only increases further.

    The only game that has kept me interest for more than 10-20 hours. If you tried it when it first came out for PC, you should give it another chance. It's hardly the same game. And it's actually even better on console than on PC — better controls anyway, but you don't have the seasons or leaderboards that the PC gets.

    Best RPG ever made. Loved this game on PC, XBOX and MACBOOK. Have nothing bad to say about it! Blizzard nailed!
    It's very repetitive, but just can't get tired of it.

    Minecraft Legends es un sólido intento de adaptar el mundo de Minecraft a un nuevo género. En el proceso, se aferra demasiado a la simplicidad y deja atrás la creatividad que tan bien la definía. El resultado es un juego que logra ser divertido, pero que a menudo termina volviéndose repetitivo y superficial, ya que parece haber sido creado pensando en los modos multijugador.

    I’ve played this game a bunch doing 100% of content and even being 76 on the leaderboard one season and I have to say it’s amazing not too much grinding for a casual play through but it allows you to get a lot better stuff on a competitive standpoint 10/10

    This is a thoughtfully crafted game. It essentially takes a AAA title with two years of meaningful patches and packages it in a console-friendly way. This game is great solo, but even better with friends.

    Very good port of the pc version. I played first on PC and actually preferred the console version with the direct movement controls. Adventure mode (on both versions) helps extend the life of the game further. About the only negative point for me is that the menus on the console version are a bit clunkier than on PC.

I was shocked at how different the game felt when I came back to it on the XB1.

But my favorite aspect of this game is how accessible it is. I love being able to turn it on and play from anywhere for 5 minutes to 5 hours, picking up right where I left off from my previous session. However, potential buyers should be warned that this game is highly addictive. Of course, not everyone will enjoy this type of game, but it is certainly worth a purchase in my opinion.… Expand

    They really did a great job with this, same as the "ultimate patched up version" from PC but with a far slicker frame rate and textures.
    Add to that the awesome control scheme and same screen co-op it's awesome fun to play. As of August 2014 one o0f the best games on Xbox One or PS4.

    While it is too early to determine in depth gameplay, my first impression is that this is one of the first games on Xbox One have me smiling ear to ear. Having played D3 since its release on PC I can say I was worried about the transition to a controller, but thus far it feels natural and responsive.

    After playing this game a lot on PC (plvl 430), I might be a bit biased. However, I wouldn't play this game so much if it wasn't great. All credits go to the recent release of the Reaper of Souls expansion on Xbox One.

    The original game on PC only kept me going for a few days. When I hit 60, I got bored and never touched it again for 2 years.

    The original game on PC only kept me going for a few days. When I hit 60, I got bored and never touched it again for 2 years. Then the RoS expansion got release and that's when I started to love this game. For me the game starts at level 70 and will be fun forever. With the addition of Rifts, Bounties and soon Greater Rifts there's loads of variety and the endgame content is endlessly fun. So far my experience with Diablo in general.

    When I played this game for about a month full time I can say this game is meant to play on the console. The controls are perfect and I mean perfect for a controller. When you play on pc you have to click where you walk and you stand still. When playing on console you're movement is under your leftstick and you're constantly manoeuvring around. The 2 mouse buttons are RT and RB for me, the skillsbar (1-4) are your ABXY buttons. This works like a charm. The skills menu is a bit getting used to, but they designed it in a way that when you get used to it, you can do it blind. They added a few nice things on consoles like the gift system and Nemesis kills as well.

    This game would receive a 10/10 if they banned all players with hacked items and if they created the 'clans and communities' from PC to make it easier to play together. It is a little too dependant on your friendslist now (which is no problem for me, but it still would be a great addition to make it even easier on us to find equally experienced players). Love this game on the console!    … Expand

    This game provides hours upon hours of playability. The cut scenes are from the gaming future, the loot is worth hacking and slashing for, and for those of us that like "the grind", it's a perfect match. As far as the Diablo series goes, the Ultimate Evil Edition rises to the top.

    The structure of the new adventure mode, overly easy leveling and accessibility of overpowered weapons have removed some of the sense of wonder and exploration from the game, but the Ultimate Evil edition is undoubtedly an improvement on Diablo III and earns a well deserved bump in score. Highly recommended.
