This glass broke on my fourth use, from it's own ice cube, with a reasonable amount of care taken. The bottom peak of the glass is strong enough to withstand the gravity of the spherical ice falling from below rim height. But because the design automatically pushes the ice to the wall of the glass, the wall is not strong enough to withstand the strike from the ball rolling off the centre peak.
It might be less of a problem with the shorter glass heights. But for this one the only safe way to add the ice sphere seems to be placing it in horizontally, meaning ice first, liquid second always. A slight change in design allowing the sphere to rest on the centre peak before… Read more
[This 2-star review is only for the Kindle edition. See other Amazon.com reviews which echo my positive thoughts on the printed book.] This is an optional textbook for one of my Management classes, so I was able to compare the Kindle edition to the physical book.

Diablo is definitely "my" Blizzard game, the only franchise of theirs I have invested in since Warcraft III: Frozen Throne. A month from now the server issues will be a non-issue, so let's focus on the longevity and replayability.
If you only play a single-player campaign once, this is not your game. The length of the story content is pretty much irrelevant to me, as the missions are replayable at any time...

If the story had one more act, that wouldn't really help the experience, it's just n+1 more replayable. There will definitely be free and paid expansions… Read more
