Lore Books Now Colored Light Blue
Blizzard has changed the color of lore books you find in houses and strange places in Diablo 3 from green to light blue. Now you won't be getting small heart attacks when one drops thinking it might be a set! Thanks to mrachins on Reddit for finding that out and providing a screenshot.

Diablo 3 for Just $9.99
Toys'R'Us are having a promotion that might help some of the yet undecided people about finally getting Diablo 3. The store has lowered the price way down to $9.99! The promotion might also sound good for those wanting some more stash space. Check the link for more information.

the set item green to light blue is a nice change, it frustrated me, that color used to mean for so long "yay, set item!"  It doesn't mean too much though since I haven't played D3 for a while now(might come back with patch 1.05); cool drawing though.

lol omg that sale is going to fuel so many anti-D3 posts

the problem with Toys R Us is that kids old enough to play or be allowed to play D3 don't shop or have their parents shop at Toys R Us...that place is for kids like 12 and under...so they end up with way too much overstock and have to liquidate

Maybe they haven't sold copies because when I search "Diablo 3" it goes to "Puss In Boots Double Pack with The Three Diablos DVD."

It says you only save that much if you buy pokemon black or white 2... your post is misleading, please change it before the idiots come. And it's 70% off ANY video game when pokemon black or white 2 is purchised.

no, your looking at a differnt deal, (it's just showing you other deals at bottom) that 70% off is only for games 19.99 or less.

70% off of games selling at 19.99$ or lower, YOUR post is misleading. 70% off a 60$ games would be 17.99$, Diablo 3 is not part of the Pokemon promotion.

If  I lived near a Toys R Us, I'd have rushed there the moment I heard about D3 being sold for so cheap and purchased every single copy they had. Then turn around and sell them all on E-Bay for 30-50 bucks a piece for easy profit.

Oh pitiful shadow lost in the darkness,
Bringing torment and pain to others.
Your damned soul wallowing in your sin.
Perhaps...

it is time to die.

I woulda had an inclination to run around other stores to get price matches and buy them out, sell em all on ebay.  They sell for about $40 + shipping a piece on ebay.  I wouldn't have thought twice about buying 500 copies if I could get my hands on them.

Honestly, I think $9.99 is what the game should cost across the board.  It's not a bad game, but it' not a deep game either.  I would compare it to an XBox Arcade title.

If D3 is worth $9.99, then Mario Wii should have been worth $1.99. I 100%ed that game in less than 2 weeks.

Remember Walmart has to price match so if you dont live next to a Toys R Us im pretty sure most people live near a Walmart. I know i bought 10 copies at my local walmart for 10 bucks a piece. Good luck.

there's always fine print about special promotions and blowouts being excluded
