Then the lord said "LET THERE BE DIABLO 3", and all gamers wishes came true. Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3 both in development? I just soiled myself.

...and for a short time, it all stopped.All fanboys-alike gave up on flame wars and hugged each other.They all watched as Blizzard announced Diablo 3 and tried to make the best out of their one-day-truce.

They gave each other gifts and presents and played their favourite games together.Even Tmacairjordan was seen playing SSBB, as Fernando tried to knock out enemies on MGS4 by jumping on their heads.

And they all took out their Guitars and copies of GH3 and played MJOLNIR MIX - The Anthem of Gaming.

Still, what happened to all the ice? The last time I checked it was barely melting and I reckon Blizzard should've made a much smoother transition between yesterday's and current screen.

I dunno, maybe an animation of the ice melting away really quickly?

If by "Optimized" you mean incredibly poor lookin'!

Seriously.. maybe they'll approach 2001 graphical power levels this time!

Probably not.
Would be nice if they could make it to 2004 levels, but that's WAY too much to hope for.

That terrible. Computers these days are so cheap its not funny. Here in Australia, i can build a full AMD dual-core system with 4gb ram, 500gb hdd, and 9600gt OC graphics card for less than AU$600 which is really quite cheap in our dollars.

I remember playing diablo 2 on a 333 Celeron it ran kinda chuggy. Then I upgraded to a PII 500Mhz and all was right with the world.

It's a Blizzard Game. Name me one of their titles that wasn't optimized well enough to run even on cards like Geforce 2.

Why would you want a 9600gt, the radeon 4850 just came out and it's almost as fast as a 9800gtx for less than $200 ;)

@ GenBanks

I think he was talking about GF9600

Personally I'm using Radeon HD 2600XT because I was unlucky enough to get a modern PC with an AGP slot.And out of the best AGP cards, Radeon 1950 requires it's own power plant in order to run so I decided to go for my second best choice.

Two years of Diablo sobriety for what?

Time to install it again, gotta warm up for the next 8 years of my *no longer able to be called a* life.

Awesome! (Glad it isn't an MMO too!)

I will sit on the fence for the MMO argument. Personally i think it would have worked excellently having it like WOW or Age of Conan. At the same time i LOVE Diablo 2 and more recently, am obsessed with Titan Quest and just finished the expansion on legendary difficulty. Diablo 3 would have worked wonders as an MMO, but Blizzard want nothing, not even Diablo, to take away the WOW thunder.

There's only one thing I want to know: What is the online multiplayer setup like? Meaning, more towards MMO, partial MMO (E.g. Hellgate London), or Diablo 2 style?

Diablo 3!!!! Even though you knew it was going to happen, it still makes me soil myself. Especially knowing that it's in development side by side with WoWLK and SCII, amazing. I definitely have to go to Blizzcon this year for sure!

To be honest, nobody did.

Blizzard is known for releasing one game at a time, without mentioning ANYTHING about their future projects let alone showing gameplay demos.

And now they have working versions of S2,D3 and new WoW all in one year.Gee, isn't that impressing?

You're the dumbass, no need to be insulting people randomly. Linkage to support that it's coming out on PS3??? Or should we just take the word of someone who post rude insults on blogs.

Okay now, THIS is what the biggest gaming company in the world should be doing ALWAYS: super hyper mega extreme fan-service to the max.

If you wanna get back on top, you better take notes, EA.
