Diablo 1 has great atmosphere and is actually pretty fun in multiplayer(Sadly, due to the age, it's impossible to play it over a LAN without some sort of wacky mucking about with your settings that I've never mastered and even Battle.Net seems to support it badly these days.). I have to say it's a must-buy, personally, if you enjoy some mildly tactical hacking and slashing at bad dudes.
Diablo 2 is... Uh. The graphics haven't improved, they've worsened the class system(Basically every class has one or two skill-combos that work, the rest mean you lose the game.), the atmosphere is completely gone and almost all of the areas are intensely tedious. Really, really not worth it.
Dungeon Siege is like Diablo 2 with more bland characters, more bland areas and gameplay that requires even less thought. Definitely not to be touched with a ten-foot pole belonging to Kim Jong Il.
I've yet to hear even a single good thing about Dungeon Siege 2.
