I am super excited for Diablo III, but I've grown a little distant from console games. With services like Steam around not only are the PC games cheaper, but you are starting to find sizeable communities more easily available to reach out to. Long gone are the days when Xbox Live dominated the gamer communities.

There is something to be said about the reliability of consoles however with always having appropriate system configurations to make the gaming experience as enjoyable as it can be. Plus you don't have to worry about bogging down the hard drive with a load of games. But this too is a give and take as you have to store all those CD's as well as pay premium prices long after the prices have gone down online.
