The reason being for this was when several key developers of the Diablo Series left. So I'm guessing they had to cancel the games they may have thought of and brought about the table so that the new employees hired at Blizzard North could come up with ideas on their own.
As qouted by Geoff Fraizer, the canceled game was a "Blizzard North kind of game," which in turn only points to a Diablo game because Blizzard North created and worked only on the Diablo series, unless they were to bring out a new Series. Most likely it was a new installment of Diablo, but who knows...

well wasnt there another post here about blizzard looking for a Lead Designer for the ppl who created diablo and diablo 2.....it would make sense that if they lost their key developers..to get new ones. I mean anyone whos played the diablo series...knows the diablo feel and what needs to be improved and shit....no reason why not to make d3
I think its already in development. I'm worried about the quality of the game tho, since the original makers left. Too bad Blizzard bought up Condor. We could have had 5 diablo games by now.

Yes, Blizzard, at their main site http://www.blizzard.com have been hiring new people for Blizzard Console, Blizzard North, and Blizzard. With all these new job openings http://www.blizzard.com/jobopp/ there is no telling what they will have in store for us. All I can say is that I can't wait until they announce a new game, whether it be Diablo III, StarCraft II, or a new game or Series, I am all for it because Blizzard rocks no matter what game/games they make.

Wow, I'm hoping they didn't cancel Diablo 3. That'd be a bummer.
Well, if the original developers of Diablo canceled a possible Diablo III, that doesn't mean new people Blizzard hires can't make a Diablo III, because they will, Diablo is too popular. It's the game that made Blizzard the most $.

I really love the Diablo series and would love to see the next installment. The game made Blizzard and all of the fans deserve the game. But with much of the original designers gone, a cancelation might be the eventuality.
Really thinking about it, i would really rather have it canceled then blizzard throwing together some crap and charging for the online play. I love the series, but I have had other game series that are just crap compared to their original.

It wasn't only just Diablo that made Blizzard big. It was there other quality games. Anyone remember Warcraft 1 and the crappy graphics? It was still a fun, challenging game to play. Though Diablo was a huge seller, I'm jsut saying that it wasn't Diablo that made Blizzard famous.

I would personally like a Starcraft+ out before a Diablo+
but either way.. Starcraft:ghost looked a bit dodgy
That would suck if they screwed up the online play by charging for it. I dont think I would buy it if they charged for online play. At least not right away. I like single player games also so I would probably wait for the price to go down.
I would proudly buy and pay for it to play...15 bux a month is nothing really. 50 cents a day? Cheap. Only around 180 dollars a year to enjoy Diablo III goodness. Even if it was cancelled and they're brining it back I seriously doubt they would release it if it was shitty. I wouldn't mind if they even released another Diablo II expansion to be honest. Just as long as we get something new out of the Diablo series...I'll be a happy man.
You striked me.
But i think that Blizzard will never canceled DIABLO,"is not only the game diablo makes blizzard famous",i agree this words,AND what i wanna say is:"WOW is a popular game,
BUT DIABLO is a Great game."

Read the History part about two unannounced games that were canceled by Blizzard.
