Poll: Do you think games like Diablo 3 should be constantly tethered to a service?

Diablo 3 was just launched today and to play, you’ll need a constant and steady internet connection to battle.net. I don’t mind having to have a system check in once in a while like how Steam does it, but the constant tethering to Blizzard’s servers for the single player mode is a bit much for me, especially with the shoddy internet connection in Canada. So what do you think of the need for games like Diablo 3 that need constant connection, even if you’re only playing the single player mode?

Diablo 3 Servers go live at midnight!

Diablo servers go live at 12AM Pacific DST. So is anyone going to pick it up and play it in the first week or so? I know I’ll be playing the hell outta it (no pun intended) as soon as the servers go live!

Ivy Bridge Has Arrived!

There has been much speculation on the Ivy Bridge release date. April 23rd was the official announcement date but many had speculated that Intel would hold out on distribution to sell off the Sandy Bridge inventory first. Fortunately, it appears as if many local dealers are already starting to sell the new line of processors (and Sandy Bridge at steep discounts). Dell even has an Ivy Bridge option if you are building a computer there. If you are planning to build a PC in the near future (possibly for Diablo III purposes), now would be the time to do it.

DLC: What We May Encounter

If you’ve been looking at the trends of technology recently, you’ll have noticed that DLC (Downloadable Content) has taken off significantly in the past ten years or so, especially thanks to the success of current generation consoles. But there’s a drawback to all this DLC and the need for some games or consoles that rely heavily on the internet. I’m not here to bash DLC or where things are going, but giving my opinion on where things are headed in the next ten to twenty years. Continue reading
