Popped to my local Tesco at midnight expecting queues of enthusiastic gamers from far and wide, especially since the store is mentioned as a participator of the 11pm launch on their website...

....absolutely nothing. 4 titles for sale in their "pc section" surrounded by tons of console games. No flyers, separate displays, notices or staff around the AV section. Only mention I saw of it was on their "top 5" games at No 1, with "for sale Tuesday".

So much for a big launch near me! Was looking out for the CE as well. Good job I had food shopping to do as well. :D

Yup same story here, only 2 titles for sale in the one I went to. Looked at the charts poster and no mention of d3.

Bought it direct for digital download instead - about 6 hours left apparently. Sad to hear about the server and authentication issues on a SOLO game - what's that all about???

Which Tesco, in case it's mine lol.
 
There's a tesco I could drive to now, it says its open midnight onwards on a Monday.

Its a superstore aswell.

Its a 24 hour store so is it open now?

Why doesn't it just say open 24 hours, what does midnight onwards mean.

Lol. Bridgend, south wales. A Tesco extra large store as well, and the biggest in the area. Big let down for a "release event" - I could do better at my house. :p.

Standard edition will most likely be available everywhere later today anyway.
 
When I walked into GAME today and asked how much it would be on release date, they said £39.99 and I laughed as it was only £28.99 or something on the rainforest. Now everywhere online has it for £39.99 at least! Might just buy it instore tomorrow when I wake up tomorrow and fancy it...
 
Does anyone notice the loading lag/hitching aswell when for example you're walking and a new series of mobs will appear and you'll get a split second of lag?
 
Going to reserve a copy from purple shirt place, should be a easy way of getting a copy tommorrow.

Its free to do and you don't enter card details, you just pop in and collect it when you want.
 
Need sleep.... Played for about 3hours now and almost lvl12. No spoilers from me but it seems that the Diablo I know and love has remained in this game!
 
Bed time for me too, hit lvl 10, killed the skeleton king. Having a blast on a barbarian, only meant to potter about for half an hour or so. Can see this game sucking a lot of my life...
 
Just put in 2 hours with a mate, loving demon hunter! I'm gonna roll with bows and 2 handed xbows with quiver as opposed to duel wielding mini xbows. Getting up early tomorrow to carry on playing.

Don't stay up too late!
