If you are lucky enough to be playing Diablo III, then you might want to consider getting Steel Series exclusive Diablo III headset that went on sale today. This headset boast a wide array of Diablo inspired looks from the D3 logo on the ear piece to pulsating red lights. It has a detachable microphone as well so you can talk to your friends while playing with them. While it is nice to look at, the sound quality is equally impressive.

You can also check out the rest of their Diablo III exclusive merchandise, like the "click ass" mouse here. A special thanks to sinke for finding this.

Featuring 50mm driver units that reproduce crystal clear sounds in high, low, and mid-range tones is at the core of what is creating an incredible Diablo® III audio experience. Whether it’s the ominously toned soundtrack, the approaching hiss of a Witch Doctor’s firebomb or the bloody rage of a Barbarian whirlwind, users will clearly hear the gut wrenching hurls and exploding innards of your enemies.

In other Blues, Blizzard has added a new mark for NPC's to help players know when their may be some important story-telling dialogue to hear from an NPC. This is a nice little addition, especially for those who want to spend most of their time hacking n' slashing but still want to know what and why it is their are doing so. A quick little glance will let you know that an NPC has something worth stopping to talk about.

The blue * above an NPC's head means they have a conversation that you have not listened to yet, or a new conversation that has just become available.
