A rep from Blizzard just sent me notice that there would be no more announcements at BlizzCon tomorrow (Saturday), so for those of you (ie: all of you) who were hoping that this would be the day that Diablo 3 was finally confirmed, I'm sorry to inform you that you'll have to continue to wait. We all know that it's eventually coming, but the waiting for the official confirmation of the third game along with some idea of what it will be like is a really hard thing to wait for. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I figured it would be best to tell you about this now rather than have you guys waiting around all day Saturday hoping that we'd hear more about Diablo 3. Thanks for sticking with us though... Blizzard is listening to us and sooner or later (ok, later) Diablo 3 will become a reality.
In other Blizzard-related news, the rep just sent me word that our own Umaro participated in the first-ever Starcraft II tournament with Loc Teinh (from w3roc.com) on his team and won in the first round, but they were unfortunately defeated in round 2 by TeamLiquid. The overall winner of the tournament was TeamLiquid who were then given the opportunity to play Karune and Stephen Chang from the eSports team. TeamLiquid wasn't able to defeat them though. Unfortunately there's no replay video footage from this tournament, but maybe that will change later on.
More news as it becomes available.
Sad Diablo indeed. (thanks to Zabadak for sharing this image with us)
Woot finally some one solved the dam puzzle. Congratz acid! The answer As long as we know they are gonna visit the franchise again or are gonna make a game on it, it is obvious they are gonna make diablo 3 =) So its simple they anounced it allready and its confirmed. =) rep up for u acid!
You guys really need to stop saying BlizzConned. Ya I know we are all bummed by not hearing anything about Diablo...but who said there was supposed to be. I am truely greatful for all that bliz has done. All the games they had made and what we have all enjoyed from we were little.
with all due respect, I beleive in a few years once people get a taste of Flagships Development, the tables will turn. (Maybee a little more) They are extreamly talented.
Id be playin Hellgate right now but my Computer threatens to commit suicide. =)
Me personally...who ever put down repeatively "BlizzCon Sux Ballz" is stupid. You really think antagonizing Blizzard for not unveiling Diablo III will want to, after comments like that?
They should sell the rights to Diablo to Flagship.. do you know why they dont... It is the real foundation of Blizzard.. Yes i know Warcraft came before and people loved it.. But Diablo was the game that gave blizzard a true self...
Sell it to the ones that created it.... Make a good business decision...

Actually...Blizzard giving the Diablo Franchise back to Flagship would be the most ignorant thing ever to do. Once Blizzard makes Diablo III, do you know how much revenue they will make? Alot! Maybe way more then Starcraft II will do. Blizzard knows this and that is why they would never hand that franchise over to anyone.
guys, i'm pissed too, but think about it. the original guys went to Flagship. Blizzard probably has to start from scratch. and they have to top the awseomeness that was Diablo 2. they have their work cut out for them. in all reality, we shouldn't be hearing an announcement for 2-4 years. but when it comes, we know that our wait will truly be over. we will have a game that WILL top ALL others. it was unfair that they left Diablo out of BlizzCon. but maybe they were trying to send us a message, one saying "no announcement this year". so no guys, don't Fuck Blizzard. who wants a half-assed D3? that would make all the time we've waited a waste. maybe they can't patch D2 as much because all the guys who worked on it are at Flagship or on Team 3? fans of Diablo, Blizzard has NOT let us down. and, if we're patient (very, very patient), the results will be groundbreaking, chart-topping, and TOTALLY worth it. and hey, maybe we'll even get a movie in the meantime, right?

Wrong.
Only a few went to Flagship - which is why about 5 of the 40 slots on the Diablo III project has seen job apps.
Blizzard North building was shut down and most of them went to the other Blizzard building to continue, and about 5 didn't want to, so they went to Flagship.
