I thought Diablo on the Playstation was great and I had a blast with Starcraft on the N64. Can anyone really explain why they just can’t require the use of KB/Mouse on console ?

And if the answer is PC only" PS3 has usb kb+mouse support, thats the only real difference to the user is it not. Obviously code-wise things would have to change to get it running but if games can require kb/mouse then theres no difference. Konami showed with MGO that you can have a totally seperate login etc. so they could throw battle.net in there too. Basically wtb SC2,WoW,Diablo3 running well on ps3 as my pc is a bag of shit and holding out for Intels new cpu before upgrading. “This is the game we want to make, so what is the appropriate platform for that game?

Diablo looked pretty console-friendly to me. It makes me wonder how long they can hold out, to be honest. Diablo looked pretty console-friendly to me.
