My heart stopped for a second when I read this.

The trailers look amazing.

I played so much Diablo & Diablo II that my fingers fell off and my eyes exploded and other than the occasional GTA I don't really play games anymore... so.... I hadn't heard about Diablo III. I thought that it would never happen.

My only fear is that they may charge you to play online. I will never buy a game and then pay a monthly fee to play it more, that's crap. You should either buy it and it's yours or it should be free to get but you just have to pay the fee every month. In any case, looks awesome.

If they are going to charge us for online play in Diablo III, they already would've started charging people for battle.net use on Diablo II and Starcraft. Both games are still HIGHLY active and show little sign of wavering. People are only scared because Blizzard charges for WoW. WoW is different when it comes to servers, though.

Well, if they charged for Diablo 2 they'd better improve their servers. They were terrible, constant lag all the time. I got the same amount of lag when I was on dial-up as I did when I upgraded to DSL.

I started playing DII again yesterday and it's just as good as I remember it being. Oh man, I'm in love again.

All I can say it....It's about Damn time!



I absolutly LOVED Diablo 2! Not so much the first one....only because I made the mistake of playing the second one first.

This will be one of the first PC games I'll buy in a looong time.

Did I miss it or have they not set a release date yet? The game looked rather complete in the demo.

It looks beautiful compared to its predecessor. I like the fact that health orbs drop instead of having to deal with potions. The menu system looks better, too, not taking up half or all of the screen.

It'd be nice to have a computer that could run that. I'm still on a green screen.

^^ yeah...I'm wondering what the requirements will be. I'll probably have to buy a new computer or pay wads of cash to upgrade.

It looks like it may be worth it....so far.

I may buy a new computer just to play it. I'm really hoping it doesn't require Vista though cause that would REALLY suck. I HATE Vista.

Hehe, me too. I forgot how awesome LoD made the game. My new Barbarian made it to level 13 in like 2 hours, plus he's got all the sick loot. I ought to be able to keep busy until III.
