I bought this to play on a Macbook pro. I have enjoyed this game on PCs in the past. Recent updates to MacOSX (written Sep. 2008) have made the game immediately quit on launch. There does not appear to be an off the shelf fix from either Blizzard or Apple.
This is a great game though.

My brother talked me into buying this game. I had no interest before since I am mainly a Command & Conquer fan. I bought it only so we could play together online and by crossover direct connect. Once I installed it and started playing, I play it all the time...when I get home from work, on the weekends when I don't absolutely have to do chores, and just about any other time I can squeeze in. I read reviews about the game before I bought it and I thought it funny that this one guy said his wife would casually walk by, glance at him playing the game, and tell him he was addicted. I've never had my wife tell me that until now...ironic. This is my warning to anyone who hasn't yet bought this game, "be careful or you may get divorced, broke, unemployed, hated, insomnia, lethargy, etc. and not neccesarily in that particular order". Consider yourself warned...great game though!

To put it simply, Diablo and Diablo 2 are the best available games of their kind. In spirit, they are successors to the classic game "Gauntlet", where a small group of heroes (each controlled by a separate player) hack their way through some huge number of monsters. You take control of a character of a particular "class" and then proceed to kill monsters, gaining stats, abilities, and equipment along the way. A lot of the enjoyment in these games comes from playing with other people (whether they be your friends or random people on the Internet), so it's really great that Blizzard's online service battle.net is free and easy to use. The price of this collection has apparently been slashed from forty to twenty-five dollars, which is a great deal for these excellent games.
The main draw of these games is their carrot-on-a-stick design: there's always something for you to do to increase the power of your character just a little bit more, whether it be farming for better gear, or simply gaining experience. The game (at least Diablo 2) can also be rather challenging, with the hardest of the three difficulty levels being particularly so. The variety of classes and, within each class, skill builds (again, for Diablo 2) also greatly adds to the re-playability of this game, since no two classes play alike. This sounds rather similar to the gameplay of most popular MMOs (massively multiplayer-online games), but the action in the Diablo series is considerably faster and more complicated.
Blizzard has shown itself to be unusually dedicated to the support of its older games. Both Diablo 2 and Starcraft still receive patch updates to this very day, despite being eight and ten years old, respectively. The online Diablo community has always been active, although since the announcement of Diablo 3 there has undoubtedly been a resurgence of interest in Diablo 2. It's still easy to find up-to-date Internet resources about these games, as well as online games on battle.net.
The graphics in these games is rather primitive, since they were released so long ago, but the gameplay is still the best of its kind, despite the numerous copycat games that the Diablo series has spawned. If you're new to the Diablo series and wondering what the hype is about, buy this collection and see for yourself. More likely than not, you'll be pleasantly surprised, and will be eagerly awaiting Diablo 3 like millions of other gamers out there.
