Any diablo like games for consoles?

I was just wondering, I've played Gauntlet, BG: Dark alliance, Champions of Norrath on the PS2, and is wondering why these games doesn't exists for consoles.

Sacred 2

Too Human... plays better with a friend than single player. I didn't think it was as bad as the reviews said.

For the love of God, do not get Sacred 2 on a console I went this route - it's messy. Your PC should handle the game at an acceptable framerate. The console version is for retards - I own both the PC and Xbox360 copies. Whatever you do, stay away from it on a console (either PS3 or X360).

And Too Human is nice. I found the reviews a bit exaggerated. Though it all depends what class you play. I was getting really frustrated when playing my berserker on the higher levels - he just kept dying all the time. I switched to a Bioengineer and the first time I died was after like the 5th play through or so (was max level already for a long time). Was one-shotted by a Troll Grenadier (I got too cocky ). So go ahead and try Too Human (it's on the X360 only). There's thread here about it, I remember someone wanting to give it a shot.

Phantasy Star Online Episodes I & II for the Gamecube. You can play it on the Wii if you have one. It's 100% exactly like Diablo 2 except it's sci fi and 3D. Gameplay is the pretty much identical though with how leveling works, items, boss fights etc... goes. It has up 4 player split screen support.

I think Phantasy Star Universe made it to the 360. And I and II were on the xbox as well.

Also, the X-men Legends series and Marvel Ultimate Alliance.

Phantasy Star Universe was nowhere near as good as Episode I&II from what I heard. PSO I&II is not able to be played on the 360 and you can't play it on the original Xbox unless you have an Xbox live account with it.

Way better than MUA IMO

Well, if you have PS1 compatibility then you could always pickup Diablo and play coop. It was always good...

Sacred 2 is good. Too Human is an abomination.

Dark Alliance 2!

Lego Star Wars. Ahhh.....Ultimate Alliance maybe. I don't know what else.

That's a bummer about Sacred 2, I'd thought about grabbing it on the PS3.

I have a PC well capable of playing it tho, so I guess I'll go that way.

I brought up Sacred 2 because it is literally the only game in this console generation that is truly Diablo-esque. Reviews are mixed. Too Human is kinda similar but doesn't really use the isometric view.

The only other games would be Marvel Ultimate Alliance and the upcoming Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 but those are obviously in different settings.

I would say the same, but closest Diablo style I have personal experience with.

A lot of this is going to depend on your definition of "Diablo-esque". Personally, I always think of procedurally-generated areas and tons of loot drops, neither of which is what I remember of MUA.
