Two decades have passed since the demonic denizens, Diablo, Mephisto, and Baal, wandered the world of Sanctuary in a vicious rampage to shackle humanity into unholy slavery. Yet for those who battled the Prime Evils directly, the memory fades slowly and the wounds of the soul still burn.

When Deckard Cain returns to the ruins of Tristram's Cathedral seeking clues to new stirrings of evil, a comet from the heavens strikes the very ground where Diablo once entered the world. The comet carries a dark omen in its fiery being and it calls the heroes of Sanctuary to defend the mortal world against the rising powers of the Burning Hells – and even the failing luminaries of the High Heavens itself.

Has the hell frozen or what ?
No. If you go to the site, the splash screen completly changed all the way, wasn't related to it really. Unless it doesn't load for you, as its animated and has sound, you could have troubles with it appearing.


They are working on Diablo 3, WotLK, sc2, and a un-annouced project they are hiring for? Jeeepers. Hope they don't all come out bad.

Diablo is so much more fun than World of Warcraft. I'm so going to play this game. I played both Diablo 1 and 2 but they got boring very easily after I had finished the game. Hopefully Diablo 3 would introduce some new mechanics that increases its lifespan. But this does not affect the fact that I want Starcraft 2 too, I'm sure it's going to be a lot of fun especially multiplayer and modding. Currently there are 3 games I want to play and they are Starcraft 2, Diablo 3 and Fallout 3.
EDIT:
where is Warcraft IV? >_<
I could almost bet that one day they will make Warcraft IV.

I've had the same concerns.. simultaniously expanding the three big universes :con:. But from the looks of it, D3 may really turn out to be great.
Look at companies like Relic. They produce a ton of games at once. It's not as if one team works on them all. Don't worry, they'll all be good!

Looks amazing. I can't wait. Anyone ever noticed Blizzard trailers are more like movies than games? I think that's part of their success.

In these trailers I only see a type of terrain developed ,looks much like Kurast.I also dont see any storyline yet.

And I was stunned to see that you can choose genre male/female for your chars.


Nothing to it,I am just too happy

Well they've already added the story-line of both of the previous games(Diablo and Diablo 2). Though it ended just before the third chapter! :D

I can't honestly tell which Blizzard game I'm waiting for most atm.

Diablo3: Tight lan/coop action.
Wotlk: Well, yeah, it's WoW, LOL!
SC2: Omg, next-gen map editor!!!

I'm still hoping for a new game(-genre?) from Blizzard instead of adding more expansions though, maybe a DnD-alike game? (Baldur's Gate anyone?), looking at the Diablo 3 gameplay video really got me excited about playing good ol' BG2.

God, give us WC4 or sandbox skillbased-nocarebear MMORPG from Blizzard (Like Darkfall Online, but with a Blizzard touch).

Everyone not bursting out in frenetic jubilance will be beheaded by the barbarian!
Weird how I am so enthusiastic about this game, while I wasn't a fanboy of it before
It just looks awesome.
