The site says a source at the company let it slip that Diablo 3 would actually arrive before the previously announced StarCraft 2, saying: "[Starcraft 2] is still being worked on, but only by a minuscule [sic] amount of people compared to what [Blizzard] put on the Diablo 3 team."

Hopefully they don't mess with Diablo 3 like the developers did with Star Trek Armada 2 did... yeesh what a mess.

Two of my most anticipated games ever.

The only thing that ticks me off is I read a rumor that ONLY the Barb is coming back.

Had a high lvl barb, hammerdin, and bowazon. Only have the 'zon left. Kinda fun to play with the valkyrie tanking.

I hope this is true. Diablo 3 is my most wanted PC game, I still play Diablo 2 from time to time.

That does kinda suck.

The Assassin is my fave character class from that game.

Either that or with the stackable upgrades that came out a poison based Necromancer.

How awesome would it be if they could port it over to the ps3 or 360, I still have and occasionally play Diablo 1 for the original playstation, so much fun

[Starcraft 2] is still being worked on, but only by a minuscule amount of people compared to what [Blizzard] put on the Diablo 3 team.

This is great news. I remembering getting my Diablo demo disc from PC Gamer waaaay back when. I bought the game on release day and have been a fan ever since.

The screen shots look good, and the video of the gameplay looks good too, I know they'll put out a solid game.

Our cohorts at WoW Insider just called to brag that, according to the official BlizzCon paperwork, Diablo 3 will be playable at demo stations this weekend. If you're one of the lucky ones to get through the ticketing process, we have a good feeling what line you'll be waiting in the longest. Stay tuned for more coverage from this weekend's Blizzard Extravaganza.

already playable

TGS may be exciting, but let's not forget that another gaming convention is taking place: Blizzcon!

This piece of news comes from Blizzard president Mike Mohaime, who teases Diablo fans by saying that the third game might see a landing on consoles.

Every game we have the discussion about which platforms make the most sense. As Diablo 3 takes shape, I think we'll do an evaluation.

I think there is a pretty good argument to be made that that type of game might work very well on consoles. There might be some technical limitations though that we might need to get past.

His words echo Rob Pardo's who remarked earlier this year that Diablo III on the consoles is "theoretically possible," since it's the "most console friendly" of Blizzard's major franchises. Hopefully, Blizzard's recent merger with Activision will make this more than possible.

Can't wait!

Red Alert 3 will keep me going until then though!

I used to play Diablo 2 like a fiend. I never had good gear until one day I decided to D/L an MF bot... the next morning I woke up with 3 windforce bows in my stash. Then it was much funner in cow levels and pk rooms.

Anyone remember Palapk/1 and the insane trade channel? Haha

[red_5ive]

D3 is a definite buy for me. Been waiting for it for tooooo long. However, Titan Quest is a good D2 rip-off with obviously better graphics, and it continues to tide me over.

[lphr0z3nl]

o the memories of playing d2. lot of hacking though. i remember when everyone had hex stones and it was hard to pk lol

[chefazn]

Time to run 10 bots again!
