Damn, I feel like a retard because of shaffen right now. I guess the saying ''arguing on the internet is like running in the special Olympics'' is true
I wish to believe it will come out soon. They know most Diablo fans have ADD and they decided to announce it late so we wouldn't have to wait too long in anticipation IMO.
Good point. Remember how long we were waiting for a D3 announcement? Why didn't they just announce it earlier? Like u said, they announce it now because it should be sooner than later.
I don't know what the deal is with SC2 though, they are lagging hard on that...
wikipedia and THIS thread... i guess it's true they've been working on it for 4-5 years and besides some countries alrdy have some reserve prices so it should be close, im bettin it is
Well according to what i know about blizzards working speed, they will announce it on Spring 09, Push it to Autumn 09 at March, and when they got D3 ready to publish, they think "lets wait for December, cuz everything sells better the weeks before Christmas". so i guess well have to wait another 1.5 years.
it was the same with the release of patch 1.10 at D2/LoD...
and OJ killed them, I mean he even put out a book (or was going to) saying how he would of done it.
Seemed like it was pretty dumb stuff-people arruging about when its going to be released and only blizzard knows that.
Also you missed my sarcasm. Funny story when playing SC people would always say OJ as orange and I be like WTF.... why you talking about the serial killer? Took me years to figure out that one. <.<
Let's attempt to get back on topic... again. *sigh*
Anyone think this could be real and why or why not?
Past history says it's not going to happen.
Two things:
First... They just made the announcement. I've never seen them make an announcement & 5 months later had the product ready to ship.
Second... In one of the videos they stated that there was a lot of content missing from all the Acts except for Act 1. Content equals graphic design & layout. This is time consuming.
It's not going to happen by the end of the year. Hopefully, if they can get it all the pieces in place it will be out in the 3rd or 4th quarter of next year.
After seeing the preceding pre-order for Diablo 3 and others for Starcraft 2 and WOTLK I sent the following email to Gameplay:
"Sent: 30 June 2008 22:41
Hi, I was wondering how information regarding the release date of Diablo 3,
Starcraft 2, and World of Warcraft's upcoming expansion Wrath of the Lich
King was received.
Is this just speculation or is this confirmed and if so by who?"
At 4:59pm today I received this reply:
"Hi there,
Thank you for your email.
All the information on our site is confirmed by the publishers, however all
dates and prices are subject to change.
If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours Sincerely
Jo
Gameplay Crew"
Typical generic response. Of course the dates will change, they're just fighting for your reserve money now before others get it.
Try asking them if they have Battletoads in stock...

"The gaming public now has focus on Diablo again, and with it comes the modern-age of trolling and jackassery."
Unbeliveable. Sites are willing to go to any length to get ppl to preorder and then after just push the release date back.
People need to remember that Blizzard really means it when they say, the game won't release till its done. When Starcraft: Ghost was actually about to come out from its official release date it was pulled from its release date. That was a game that quite a few people were looking forward to, but Blizz felt that at the last minute the game just wasn't what they considered fun. So they canned it. These dates, even if official, mean nothing until the game goes gold.

lol, indeed.
Seriously dude, don't spark it. Evidence is correct.

Lol I wish the courts worked on that "evidence", OJ would be behind bars.
You've heard my points, I've heard yours.
Lol, alright then. Let's just wait see what happens.^_^
Good point. Remember how long we were waiting for a D3 announcement? Why didn't they just announce it earlier? Like u said, they announce it now because it should be sooner than later.

You sir need to read like the last 3 or 4 pages. lol
it was the same with the release of patch 1.10 at D2/LoD...
sry for my crappy english
And have to read what these people think? Id probably loose a few IQ points.
AND OJ IS INNOCENT! Bunch of racists!
Oh no, no, it's good stuff.
and OJ killed them, I mean he even put out a book (or was going to) saying how he would of done it.

But, that might be too much to hope for.
