For all of you who are attending the 2009 Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle, Washington this weekend, you're gonna have an extra good time because all attendees will have a chance to play the demo of Diablo 3 there!
Official Blizzard Quote:
"Blizzard Entertainment will once again be representing in full force at the 2009 Penny Arcade Expo, taking place this weekend, September 4-6 in Seattle, Washington. PAX attendees will have access to playable versions of Diablo III (including the recently announced Monk class), the earth-shattering World of Warcraft: Cataclysm expansion, and the engrossing StarCraft II single-player campaign. Community managers will also be in attendance to chat with attendees about the past, present, and future of Blizzard Entertainment games. We hope to see you there!
Obviously, there's no word on whether we'll see any other new material in the PAX demo, but one can hope. Do you guys think there will be any significant differences with this new demo, or do you think it'll basically be the same as what we saw at BlizzCon 2009?
Yeah, probably. I'm still upset Blizzard didn't show up at the FanExpo in Toronto last weekend, I could have lost my soul playing it! There were a lot of WoW cosplayers though, and no lack of Blizzard shirts on other people.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it'll be exactly the same demo, with the monk now unlocked. It isn't a big enough exposition in the game industry for them to reveal a new demo version, imo.
They could reveal some minor changes or news while answering questions to the people who went there, but I don't see them announcing anything major at an expo, that close to the BlizzCon.

If you can't amaze people with your intelligence, confuse them with your bullshit.
WTF?!?!? I was in Seattle a few weeks ago!! Why are they coming now instead of then?!

if its any different then blizzcon im going to be very mad at blizzard since i forked out a lot of money to go down and see them at their own show and all we got was a new class and show something else a week later im going to be pissed.
Blizzard is big enough to where Blizzcon is all they need to promote their stuff and that is their place to release the big announcements and features. PAX and E3 and the other conventions are great but Blizzcon is where anything great Blizzard related happens.
Mathematics is a penumbra, those who hold such an affection to this noble field would find themselves into the realm of the Heirarchy of Abstracts and Paradoxes.
Def think it will be the same demo; however, I wouldnt put it past Blizzard to drop a few things during a Q&A if they have one...nothing major, but maybe a few little things...

Maybe someone will ask them about system requirements. Not a huge deal, per se, but a valid question.
Yea, that would be something of interest, I just got done building my comp about a month ago, and hopefully it is up to the task...def dont need to build another one :/

I find it a little unfair that people on the West Coast of the US get ample opportunities to see and PLAY the game, while the East gets nothing but scraps... Why don't they release at least a short demo of the game? Maybe even just playable once...? Or fricken do something over here... Sorry just ranting out of frustration. I just really want to play this game...

If we could somehow make this
Christmas thing last
By helping a neighbor
Or even a stranger
And to know who needs help
You need only just ask
