At the Spike VGAs, some dudes from those American Pie movies awarded Blizzard with this year's Gaming God award. Mike Morhaime, Frank Pearce, and Allen Adham took to the stage to accept, revealing Diablo 3's final introductory cinematic. As you can imagine -- actually, wait, don't imagine. Just watch it above already!

Don't worry. Deckard Cain isn't dead. You rescue him in one of your first quests. At least in the beta you do :)
Oopps..SPOILER

I am so glad that Diablo this time doesn't look like Godzilla as in Diablo II when I first encountered him as I was like looks it's Godzilla shooting out nuclear lighting :)
He looks more demonish now with his mega horns and this looks like all out war!
Leave it to Blizzard to tell a good story!!

I disagree completely. Old Diablo was a badass balrog type demon. Now he looks like some kind of chitinous lava beetle with horns on top of horns. I like the design of the face area but the rest of him is way over done to my taste.

Eh, I liked the weirdness of the Diablo 2 cinematics better.

D3 is my most anticipated game, but this did nothing to increase the hype for me. Weakest Blizzard CGI trailer I've seen.

That's because when you reach the top, you can't go any higher.

Looks like a Final Fantasy trailer. Goofy anime chick.
This isn't Diablo...

I know you're just a troll. No one that stupid could manage to breathe and type at the same time.
The 'goofy anime chick' was based directly off of a Blizzard employee.
The likeness is uncanny.
There is no exaggeration of features.
These morons who've been complaining since day 1 that there's more than 1 colour palatte being used, so the game isn't lolemogrimdark, need to seriously invest in a clue.

That makes the game look a lot more exciting than the gameplay videos I've seen of it. Well done to the people who made the trailer.

A quite gorgeous cinematic for what looks to be a very fun game.

The age of dungeon crawlers is long past. I just can't get hyped for something that should have been out 5 years ago.

Blizzard proves it still makes the very best looking CGI in the industry, like they've always done.
Also, where is my Warcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans?

Wow..... hopefully this doesn't come out the same time as the new SC2 expansion tho because i just might explode from sheer indecisiveness.

The whole "Light vs. Darkness" thing is getting so annoyingly overplayed. Makes any game story seem trite and uninteresting.
I mean, yeah, this game is about Hell, but you can still do something more original than "prophecy of apocalypse! light vs darkness oh noes!" Just look at Bayonetta, another game about heaven and hell. Creativity!

cool cinematic. Now if only the beta was actually playable. Has given me 3 different errors upon trying to play for the last 5 days.
I wish I could beta test the damn beta.
