The hilarious thing is, everyone is bitching because the graphics aren't top of the line but if they were, they would be bitching because their systems couldn't handle it. I got bad news for you people. If they are in fact working on Diablo 3, you're going to need a beefy system to run it so you better start saving up.
ghost isnt being made, and no one knows if starcraft was being made for four years...
and blizzard does take a long time to create their games, but the outcome is why we love them so much
theyre not sure if itll be worth it to be pay to play, or not.. theyll tell use later, when its about ready to be released.
oh, and to people that doubt the game?... or think your computer isnt good enuf, or the game wont take advantage of your shiny new 8800 gtx
Quote from Blizzard »
Will there be a console version of StarCraft II? StarCraft II is being developed for the PC. We have no current plans to bring the game to any console platform.
Will StarCraft II take advantage of DirectX 10?What other graphical goodies are included? The game will be compatible with DirectX 10, and we're still considering whether there will be exclusive DirectX 10 graphic effects, but the graphics engine will also be very scalable to ensure that a wide range of different systems will be capable of running StarCraft II. The new engine is also capable of rendering very large units, as well as large numbers of units on screen together. Havok physics have been integrated into the engine for added realism as well.
So they havent even brought Diablo III up? Rarely Blizzard Hosts an event like this. There has to be a small Diablo Area at that place, with one guy there. Go ask him something!
Seriously, they avoid it, i'ts strange. Diablo isn't a one and done trophy to put up on the shelf. If your not going to do anything with it. Sell the name to somewhere else you greedy fucks.
Ok so we have Starcraft 2, no surprise there what with Blizzard referring to the 'Medusa Project' (obviously in honor of Kerrigan). I never got into the first one, so I think I'll give this one a shot - might be fun. Either way I suppose the SC fans deserve a sequel cause it'll be a decade of waiting for them. Now I don't mind waiting a little while longer for D3 but PLEASE NO PAID SUBSCRIPTIONS AND NO 'WORLD OF DIABLO.' If the game costs an extra ten or twenty bucks retail to provide online support at battle.net then fine but i dont want to feel like im paying an extra monthly utility bill to play a game I already own.

Diablo 3 Developer: Blizzard Publisher: Blizzard What Was Promised
The quintessential dungeon-crawler has devoured hundreds of hours from the lives of gamers. Considering the success of Diablo, it was a no-brainer that the title would see a third installment at some point in the future. It has been more than six years since the release of Diablo II and Blizzard remains relatively quiet about the future of the franchise. Rumors over the past year hint that Diablo 3 could be another MMO. Blizzard has announced that it is working on a new MMO, and said it would be quite different from WOW. It's not clear, however, if the upcoming MMO is a new IP or based on either the Diablo or StarCraft universe. Where It Stands
Don't fret, another Diablo game is in the hopper. This according to numerous high-ranking executives at Blizzard who have, over the past six months, assured in various interviews that the Diablo series would live on. It began at the German Games Convention in 2006, when Blizzard COO Paul Sims assured fans that the company's popular franchise had not been forgotten. "As you probably already know, there is no doubt that we will continue the StarCraft and Diablo franchise," Sims told IGN.
However, don't get too excited. As Blizzard VP Itzik Ben Bassat recently told the crowd at a London WOW: The Burning Crusade launch event, " We cannot wait to be here in a few years, or however long it will be" to announce Diablo 3. "It's won't be a decade," he promised. Meaning either that Diablo 3 would be out by 2010 (ten years after the release of Diablo 2) or that it would be out by 2017, within ten years of the WOW expansion launch. But hey, at least it's coming!
hells yeah ......the last thing we want is yet another WoW incident.....Warcraft was good but then WoW made it unbearable to play...........now i've been playing D2 since it came out and i don't want to see another good game go down the tubes like Warcraft did.
There is absolutely nothing that can make cause you have that idea, no one in the FAQ do they slightly imply Battle.net will be pay to play.
I like SC, I'm playing it now to refresh my memory and will hopefully enjoy SC2.
But meh, as for Diablo III, this forum has such great ideas as to what a sequel could be. But pay attention to the people(forums are buzzing over SC2 and people state their opinions on Diablo a lot as well) that played the Diablo games just as casuals. Most of them see the game as finished, the normal run of the mill casuals see it as a done and done game. Perhaps it is a finished frachise, we all simply want more from something that nothing half decent can come from.
I don't know, that time line reminded me Blizzard releases games about every 2 1/2 - 3 years, giving us a possible announcement earliest of 2010. So we have quite a long time to wait for something which Blizzard and majority of fans seem to think is finished.
Even after SC 2 itself releases which is probably a Q1 2009 projected date we have a couple years to go before they would be willing to even announce a Diablo III, then add a year or two for release.

good point. The graphics arent that bad either. Its just as good as the current Command & Conquer 3 or Supreme Commander if not better. Wondering when its gonna be released tho, they still havent uploaded anything about the other races except the Protoss.
btw, Aibo, wheres the WoW expansion u were so sure they were going to release today?
wtf are u talking about...no one thinks the diablo franchise is finished and if u do then u have some serious re thinking to do.
I guess you can't read posts.

Did you just ignore all my posts up until now completely? Did you just ignore every single post I made in each section and fight with Mutton? It was a joke.
Pattern is: Warcraft Starcraft Diablo WoW for warcraft, Sc2 for sc, The next game will be Diablo 3. They released WoW for the warcraft game, them starcraft come in 2nd, and released SC2, then after that it's diablo 2 franchise so, next game will be D3 Plus, in 2008 it will be 10 years for Starcraft, In 2010 it will be 10 years for Diablo 2. We waited 10 years for SC2, if things are right, we will have D3 in 2009 or 2010, because it will be 10 year for Diablo 2 too. here's graphic explaining the pattern:

ehhh. I dont believe so. This is your traditional game that is based on single player / multiplayer mode.
There is absolutely nothing that can make cause you have that idea, no one in the FAQ do they slightly imply Battle.net will be pay to play.

because they know that everyone hated paying to play, and theres a lot of koreans that would be pissed if they had to pay..and a lot of americans
they just dont NEED to have p2p theres enuf fan base to sell their product to, that itll be more popular if they dont make it p2p.
they know better...
and they put so much emphasis on BATTLE.NET at sc2.com that its liek bringning back the old diablo battle net - free
wtf are u talking about...no one thinks the diablo franchise is finished and if u do then u have some serious re thinking to do.

WARCRAFT | DIABLO | DIABLO | WARCRAFT | ???DIABLO???
