Versions and Re-releases
The game was released in Collector's Edition format, containing bonus collector's material, a copy of the Diablo Dungeons & Dragons pen-and-paper campaign setting, and promotional movies for other Blizzard games. The Diablo II: Exclusive Gift Set (2000) similarly contained exclusive collector's material and promotional videos, as well as a copy of the official strategy guide. The Diablo Gift Pack (2000) contained copies of Diablo and Diablo II, but no expansions. The Diablo: Battle Chest (2001) contained copies of Diablo II, Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, the official strategy guide, and the original Diablo. Recently, however, the Battle Chest edition no longer contains the original Diablo.
Original CD release worked on Windows 95/98/Me/NT4SP5, but current one downloadable from Battle.net requires at least Windows 2000/XP.
The announcement of Diablo III renewed the interest in its predecessor and brought more attention to the many mods available for the game.

Famous quotes containing the word versions:
“The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.”
