GOD DAMN YOU!! :rolleyes:
That was perfectly legit rumor fuel.:)
Quote from "Explorer" »I wonder if Blizzard plans on doing some kind of teaser through this site. Perhaps waiting a few days to release some sort of teaser on diablo3.com. Everyday I go on this site, I expect me typing in dablo3.com into my url, and see a nice message that says "stay a while and listen." Then i smile and type in diablofans.com and discuss the magic.
With that said that is what im expecting from blizzard in the next couple of weeks. Can anyone else picture this happening?
Yeah, they'll do something to tease us with Diablo3.com, I'm sure of it!! -

i am still amazed, shocked, perplexed, and stupefied on...
why does everyone like Star Trek...or star wars...
I do like the original star wars, before the CG Jaba the Hutt. Now Star Trek, hmm, I do like the Borg, but other than that I never finished watching a single episode, let alone movie. I take it back, I did finish one movie, it was 1st Contact, I think.
I am more amazed, shocked, perplexed, and stupefied on...
why everyone likes Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter movies. Honestly, most of the lines in those movies are crap. Most of the lines in those movies are just something to bridge the gap between one "amazing" CG visual to the next.
And yeah, no new news, so that's why I kept it off topic. -

You should make a thread introducing yourself. Good to have you aboard.:D
Sounds to me like you might know something. I don't know if you do or not, but the way that you type is unlike a normal forum junkie, and more like an employee at Blizzard.

Mar 25, 2008Archie posted a message on Diablo3.com UpdatePosted in: NewsQuote from "giuppichan" »of course, he will deny it, since it was confidential.
oh guys I'm all hyped!
In three months 'll be playing Diablo 3!
Cannot wait!
Just so you know, even if it was announced in June, that is all it is, an announcement. The release will probably be the following June, as in 2009, if it is announced June 2008.
So no, you won't be playing it in 3 months. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Damarus chimed in, telling the horde of several tasks that were required of them before the assault on the town. One task caught Zethrael's attention. "A band of local heroes is staying in one of the taverns... they should be moving on soon. If my sources are correct, they recently defended two other towns from a demon invasion. Taking them out is imperative."
"My skills would be best used in head on combat, so am ready to move on the tavern to remove the band of heroes from this world, Damarus." said Zethrael. The burning eagerness to slaughter the heroes lingered on each word that left his blazing furnace-like mouth.

I'd love for you to post a pic of your Task Manager showing your system running off of .32GB. And for some reason, all your program stats are significantly different than mine, except for WMP.
I also think you keep forgetting that the operating system needs to reserve memory addressing space for all of the hardware devices. On my PC, with Win 7 x64, that addressing space is .673GB. I hope that is clear enough, that 2GB is the bare minimum for an average user with Win 7 x86 and 3GB min with Win 7 x64.
As for the installation quote of .5-1GB. I take it you've never installed Photoshop. :rolleyes:
Question, why is an IT guy using Norton?

For an even better experience though, I'd suggest a dedicated video card of at least a 9800GT. Everything else in your system seems fine to run it at what I would guess is a solid middle performance setting.
But like it was pointed out by Seth, the requirements aren't out yet, so we're all just making educated (or not :P) guesses.

Lets say he runs Win 7 x32 with 2GB, and he's not lame, so he's running it with Aero. Right there, .8GB. Open Mozilla Firefox; that's .3 GB, have an antivirus monitoring in the background; that's another .2 (generous), Peer Guardian +Speedfan; .1GB, Spybot; .1GB, Windows Media Player; .1GB, the list goes on.
Then imagine if he actually wanted to install something, .5-1GB right there. Trust me, 2GB is a realistic minimum for operating Win 7 32 bit, and 3GB is the realistic min for operating Win 7 64 bit like any normal person would. Also consider that the OS doesn't register 100% of the RAM. With my PC, I idle at 1.3GB with Win 7 x64 Ultimate. That is only with Spybot, Avast, PeerGuardian, and Speedfan running.
I can guarantee that a game like DIII will run like crap with only 2GB RAM. Personally I wouldn't run DIII with less than 4GB, and I'm going to run it with a minimum of 8GB by the time it comes out. I want the bottleneck to be my video card, which will most likely be an XFX 5830.

Check out the Logitech s220 2.1 speaker system. It's what I use, and WAAAAY loud. Incredible bass blasts from the sub, and the two little speakers get so loud that I don't even want to turn it up past 50%, and usually 25% is plenty. Also, it has a little pod that you put on your desk anywhere you want, and it has a really cool dial on it that adjust the volume. And of course, there is an on off switch, a Mic input, a headphone jack, and a subtle orange "on" light.
The 5870 sure as hell better fit in there!! If you're talking about the 5970, it should fit as well, as it is only 1" longer. As long as you leave a hard drive out of that slot, you shouldn't have a problem. That case is huge!! I really like that case overall. Great design with tons of cooling, good cable management, bottom mount PSU, and it's ready for water cooling down the line. I only wish they would have painted the inside of the case black.

It sounds like you're telling him to build his own pc for $300. While it is entirely possible, I would strongly recommend against this. If you're building a pc, spend a solid $600, otherwise buying an HP or a Dell for $300-400 will actually be a better deal.
I'll see if I can put together a "Under $500" list when I get home from work.

I'll add it to the list of supplies though. Thanks.

It still stands that this is a clone of the other thread Three-Headed Demon = Diablo? - Please keep all discussion regarding the demon here (that is the actual title BTW)
So shouldn't this thread still be closed?

That is 100% guaranteed Diablo. That was a very very early build before they had finished the model for the body. Look at the detail in the head compared to the detail in the arms, legs, etc. Then look at the detail in the trailer. They obviously weren't finished.
And yes, Diablo is in DIII, because of many many reasons. The obvious being the statue, the cinematic, and the game is called DIABLO III!!!
/End thread pleeeeeease!!
This is where the discussion should probably continue.http://www.diablofans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9627&page=17

Super thank you Seth for the Sticky!!
Laptops suck for builds. I know, I tried pulling stuff apart in one of mine to replace some parts. The problem is, that if you get a prebuilt case, they're glued and screwed in all sorts of hard to find places. But once you have it apart, you then realize that all the connectors are different from Desktops!O_O
Disastrous. Gaming builds should always be done in a desktop, unless you just outright purchase a gaming laptop. But then you're looking at $$$ for a halfway decent one.
