Blizzard Entertainment has announced Diablo III!

Diablo® III Unveiled!

Twenty years have passed since the cataclysmic events of Diablo® II. Mephisto, Diablo, and Baal have been defeated, but the Worldstone, which once shielded the world of Sanctuary from the forces of both the High Heavens and the Burning Hells, has been destroyed, and evil once again stirs in Tristram....

Following the unveiling of Diablo III today at the Blizzard Entertainment Worldwide Invitational, we've launched the game's official website, with information about the places, characters, monsters, and adventures awaiting you upon your return to the world of Sanctuary. Some of the site's highlights include:

* The cinematic teaser trailer shown at the 2008 Worldwide Invitational
* A 20-minute gameplay demo video
* More than 60 screenshots and pieces of concept art
* Deckard Cain's journal, narrated by Deckard Cain himself -- stay a while and listen!
* And much, much more

Visit the new Diablo III website now to learn more about the game, and make sure to check out the official FAQ and the announcement press release.

I'm SOOOOOO excited! The Diablo games were my favorite games ever! ^.^ ^_^ ^.^ ^_^ ^.^ ^_^

Links taking forever... meh.

Eh?

The page was generated in less than 10 seconds for me.

All I have to say is, About time Blizzard. Get off that bloody ignorant MMO bandwagon and get back onto what you do best.

Yeah, I was impressed when I first played Diablo II O_O
Too bad I started when it was dying.

Anyway, I guess the rumors were true. The game will be released at the end of 2008 (or beginning of 2009) xD

Let the clickfest begin!

That right there, is deliciously good.

*covers eyes with hands*

I can't see that, LaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLa~ x_x

Hope it doesn't hinder Starcraft 2's release...

Blizzard is a large enough company, it's not the same teams working on both games.

Hope they don't both get released around the same time...that'd be weird having to choose...[I only get ONE game at a time]

If they were, I'd probably end up with Diablo III, Starcraft is fun and all, but I can live without it.

Woooooh so stoked :bigsmile:

Oh I get the plan...
D3 is just incase SC2 isn't as good as they want it to be...they have something else to make everyone forget about Sc2 if SC2 is awesome then D3 will probably be released later than if SC2 isn't awesome :P

I loled. That site needs to die.

Oh, wow... thats... Sadly hilarious.

But I do agree with the dungeon lighting issues.

I HATED DIABLO II SO MUCH.
BRING ME STARCRAFT II INSTEAD, BLIZZARD-FAGS!

Just kidding, I'm actually looking forward to Diablo III, too. I'd take SC over it if I had to choose, though. I love crushing my opponents with my awesome tactical skills. :3

Except I suck at the original StarCraft. Oops.

Also, screw that retarded petition. (Like it would make any difference this late in the game's development anyway.)
I hate the way WoW looks so much, but I think Diablo III is looking pretty nice. I do think it's a little cartoony looking, but whatever. I'm glad a next generation game is actually using some color, and isn't over-texturing everything to the point of obscurity. Everything looks pleasant, and I can actually see what the hell is going on on-screen without breaking my eyes. Good job, Blizzard.
Actually, Diablo II's art-style is the main reason I hated it so much, hahah.

was the -FAGS added onto Blizzard really necessary?

and I liked the dark and gloomy feel of Diablo II

Hah, sorry Para! XD
It was necessary though, yeah. -FAG isn't a derogatory remark against gay people, so don't worry.
It's just like...you know...an internets honorific, like "-kun."

Hey Para-kun! =D

this game is gonna be one of the best when it's released

I loled. That site needs to die.

I completely agree with that site. I loved D2:LoD (occasionally still play it ^^) but seriously those designs look like something out of fairytale land not like the Old Chaos Sanctuary.

Omg, go Diablo, even though the first 2 games were simple in graphics it was just awesome!

And I like how they made all these specific conditions to get amazing reactions like when you beat the game you get several items and then you can fight Uber Diablo and Uber other bosses :lol::lol::lol:.
