All is good, got my dad to read out the code on the phone. First he gave me the WoW one, my face when it redeemed was all :S
Now downloading.
Hahahaha. Love it. Not like you'd have the time to play it now, either.

I suggested this would happen in the OT and they were all like 'NAH IT WILL BE FINE YO'
Of course it was going to happen. Happens with MMOs, too, and for those you're paying for time. I still don't mind the always-online thing. I get their reasoning. Ideally, I would like a separate offline-only mode as a matter of principle, but I don't think I'd use it.

Drowning my Diablo III login woes in vodka ginger beer.

At least they included a full colour (!!!!) manual so I have some to read on the loo while I take an anger poo.

What characters are you guys starting with?
Download nearly done, going to go get some KFC. Not really expecting to play in the next hour.

Your boys are 2-0 up, aren't they? I watched the first game but the manic last day of the Premiership wiped by brain. I apologise unreservedly on behalf of my fellow Charlton fans for telling you to stick your record up your arse. Well, maybe not unreservedly...

When keepin it real goes wrong. Very, very wrong.
Goddamn I wish I had time to install & play Dayz.

Try like setting your alarm for like 3 in the morning and playing this till 5 then catching a few hours power nap before your up for work.

Pretty much creating a gaming slot into your day.
 
I'm not gonna pretend I don't play videogames, but I really managed to miss this whole Diablo thing. What the fuck is so great about it? (I get it's an RPG, but outside of Skyrim I haven't really played many - more of a BF/GTA/FIFA type type)

satisfying mechanics, addictive design, fantastic atmosphere, interesting lore and gorgeous art.

Never played Diablo. Don't even know what the gameplay looks like. Same with Final Fantasy.

Yeah you're chatting shit on both counts. You don't get to GAF without seeing at least a picture of both.

I've seen one or two screenshots from some FF games, but I don't know how they play.
In Final Fatasy, gameplay typically involves anime dudes running up and hitting monsters with enormous swords then running back again. Everyone is so cordial, it's a gentleman's sport.

Diablo has no running back and more death. Also less anime but more secret (spoilers)
pony levels, I presume

In diablo you buy 5 mice and hope they last you through the game.

In FF you press x every couple of minutes and hope something progresses.

We were indeed. Now 3-1 up.

We'll be seeing you next season ;)

Right well, Town game's over, safe for a couple of weeks.

Time to click the night away.
 
I was only Facebook earlier, and I looked up a load of people from high school/sixth form. Some friends, some I couldn't stand, some I never talked to. What make me laugh though is that the majority of the people considered 'cool' (you know the people, the ones who rule the year to some degree, usually dickheads/gobby ones) look awful, the girls especially. Most of them have got pretty fat and ugly very quick. It's like they've aged more rapidly than is possible, probably from all the drinking they've done, drugs, kids they've had etc. Ones that you even thought were very 'pretty' -like them or not- you wouldn't even look at twice now.

At least my average looks have stayed average!

Also FUCK YODEL. Ordered a new camera, promised next day delivery by Jessops. Instead, my camera has went on a wild goose chase from Northampton to London, then to Scotland, and the last update at 1pm said 'in transit with possible delays'. Sort out your distribution. First time I've ever 'used' them and they're already living up to their (terrible) reputation.

Which one of you has the battletag with [gnome] in it? I'm trying to line GAFer up to tag here.

Also, bugs aside (can't earn achievements as a Demon Hunter right now), Diablo III is incredible.

I watched the Giant Bomb livestream. It looks really satisfying. The Monk does anyway, that's all I saw.

My exams start in exactly 2 weeks, why oh why did I get Diablo?

Fuck me I'm tired.
 
May just stay away from here until everyone is all Diablo'd out.

Little Old Man, I feel your pain, had an awful experiance with Yodel. Whenever I order something now I check who they deliver with, and if it's Yodel I ask them to use someone else or I'll go somewhere else. They normally comply.

It is actually really sunny outside, happy Wednesday Gaffers!

My friends are telling me that I have to buy Diablo 3 but I get barely any PC time at the moment. Even if I did, I think I'd be more inclined to play Dayz. The idea of sitting in a queue to play my game just ain't groovy with me. I'd fire up 'Eden' while I waited and then end up playing that instead.

From what I played of Diablo III, I found it boring and flat and lifeless and dull. Bog-standard CRPG really. It's also a Blizzard game so the chances of it dropping in price any time this decade are slim, and DRM queues are ultra bollocks. I've been flying around Arkham City instead.

And Dayz...

Is it Arma 2 which you need to run it, or the sort of expansion thing, can't remember the name?
