Question on Diablo 2

Does anyone know of a way to run Diablo 2 on OSX without using parallels or bootcamp? I've been dying to play it, and I have tried bootcamp but it slowed down my mac and took up so much space that it wasn't worth it.

Sure...just purchase Diablo 2 for the Macintosh...problem solved!!!

I've been playing Diablo 2 on & off for the last 9 years on the Macintosh with OS 9 & OS X...since Diablo 2 was released in 2000.

Crap... sorry, let me elaborate...
Diablo 2 and its expansion pack LoD, runs on OS 9, NOT OSX as it is a very old game. I was wondering if there was a way to run OS 9 games on OSX without the use of a windows. Sorry for not being specific earlier!

Wrong again my friend!

Diablo 2 & the expansion set "Lord of Destruction"...both run in OS X...and have for years & years. Just buy yourself the Diablo 2 Battle Chest.

Here's a link to Blizzard.com. Check at the bottom of the page for Macintosh system requirements...you'll see that it says 10.3.9 and higher:

Blizzard Entertainment: Diablo 2

Hope this helps,

- Nick
