First you had to get a multiplayer character up to whatever difficulty
you wanted to play your single player in, and start a multiplayer game
in that difficulty.  Then you exited back to the screen where you
could choose single player and chose that.  Then you started a new
game.  It never gave you any options to select a difficulty, but the
game would effectively be in whatever difficulty you'd just come from
in the multiplayer game.  Great way to level up a new single player
sorc.  Just make it think it's a hell difficulty game and for the
first few kills you'd be getting a level up or so for each kill you
made. ; )
(I suggest a sorc, though a rogue might work too, but I suspect a
warrior would just get flattened as soon as they got into melee range
with the mobs)
