>“Diablo 1 was the best game in the franchise."

That is a bold statement, but I am inclined to agree. Obviously D2 is bigger, prettier, has more varied classes, more items, more everything. I absolutely adore that game, and I have spend hundreds and hundreds of hours playing it.

But the original... It just has that darker and more grim, less cartoons tone. Plus it came out when I was 10 years old, which obviously influences my opinion a lot.

for me, D2 is the better game in that it is fun and addictive to play, while D1 is much more atmospheric.

I was 9. It's one of my favorite games ever. I lost interest in D2 pretty quickly, but I still come back to D1 every few years. I made my wife play it too and after about an hour she was hooked and became inseparable from the computer until beating the game a week or two later.

I say the EXACT thing about StarCraft (vs. StarCraft 2).

I never got into SC, but yeah definitely.
