Quote from "arowman" »USB Keyboards and USB mice both plug in to PS3s and Xbox 360s
Compared to other peripherals (Rockband, that donkey kong bongo game, etc.) I think a K/M combo would be a cheap addition to the XBox and PS3.
More gamers the better - just give PC gamers a little more love
Quote from name="The_Infamous 1" »I dont like the idea of D3 on console. Start a new franchise on the console leave D3 to the PC.
Quote from "Zenith" »lol wow hooking up the keyboard to a PS3 lol why dont you just do computer then because actually some games on consoles that have alot of action and sound FX and really good FX anyways will sometimes cause a lag on the consoles...and computer would connect much easier lol(theres my statement period)
Quote from "Seth" »Not to my knowledge. Dunno.
Yeah, I never played either on a console, but nowadays the line between PC's and consoles is blurring significantly. The standard archaic PC input devices can now all be attached to PS3's and Wii's (and, hopefully in the future, Microsoft's consoles).
Quote from "Eldius" »I just don't see any of the games being compatible with a console of any sort, considering that the controls are too complex compared to the norm for such platforms.
However, I can see the Lost Vikings or something of that sort on consoles.

WoW is a different case in that (i heard) they average 3 content patches (free MINOR expansions) between exp packs.

Barbarian: All (except MAYBE staff)
Witch Doctor: Dagger, Staff maybe 1H Axe (think about a voodoo caster carrying a bloody hatchet).
Wizard: Staff, Dagger, Sword
Monk: Staff, Hand Weapons

But in regards to merc armies, i really really really really really really really doubt the will add merc armies, let alone mercs at all.
From what i've seen and heard about Diablo 3, the game is too easy as is. It kind of reminds me of Dota and how the hero is 100x more powerful then the creeps.

Wizard can also wield swords, just look at their conjuration spell tree. They are actually allowing a melee/battle mage build. Melee damage will increase spell damage (i'm going this build if its still there at release).
Also... look at the picture that everyone is assuming is the female monk. Thats definately the wizard wielding an empowered sword.

THE DRUID WAS AN EXPANSION CHARACTER. Plain and simple, he was not necessary to the base game in any form. He is not necessary to the expansion either, but blizzard decided to add him and the assassin to allow us more replayability.
He has nothing that is necessary to make the game complete, and will NOT be part of the release. Only a ranged character will make it, and druids do not belong carrying bows. Blizzard wants to make D3 very D&D and name one game where druids were archers. Druids have always been staff wielders....

Think about Diablo 1, they made an awesome game with only 3 characters - Warrior, Mage and Rogue(Ranged).
Barbarian fills the Warrior role, he doesn't need masteries anymore because he is basically the beefy warrior role of all RPGs/ Hack and slashes.
He has shield mastery, dual wield, and i once saw a two handed mastery (not sure if its not going to be in the release).
Why do we need any other warrior class... the barbarian can probably pick any weapon he wants and make a build with it. Dual maces - Done. Dual axes - Done. Sword and shield - Done. Etc....
I am 95% sure that some form of bow build will be implemented into the game... However, I wouldn't be surprised if blizzard actually changed one of the barbarian builds and gave them some bow abilities. (Think Mongols)
We have the heavy melee , the light melee, the heavy dps magic, and the mixed magic... leaving only a ranged class.
Stop thinking in terms of D1 or D2 classes... think in line with RPG archetypes...

First of all, the druid was an expansion character... they weren't planning to be part of the game until the blizzard dev team was tasked with making 2 new classes. Druid is NOT necessary ... and never was.
Second, the amazon was a retarded class if you ask me. i never really understood why the heck they could attache elemental attributes to bows and javs...
I do agree that they will probably add some sort of class that has at least 1 bow build... but i hope to god that it is not the amazon, nor the hunter from WoW.
Hunters were always my least favorite WoW class, as they were totally overpowered. They were able to solo FAR to easy... and they were damn near impossible to PK, except in mass fights with a rogue ambushing them.

If blizzard keeps their tetris style inventory as currently is, we can hold probably 3x the gear (armor is only 2 instead of 6 slots), and if they revert to the WoW style again, we can hold alot more as well.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they add more NPC shops in dungeons/ along the roads.

Blizzard likes to use the demo as a way to draw fans to conventions (especially to their booth).
This is half the reason people forked over $100 a ticket for blizzcon was to go play diablo 3 and Sc2....
