I want to pre-order, but not until I see that CE or what "perks" different retailers will be offering. WHY WHY did this have slip to 2012! I hope Skyrim lasts me some time. Also, we the other bubbles there, I truly feel there is legitimate excitement about a multi-platform release vs a PC only realase at this time. There is no doubt in my mind that almost every PC gamer will be clamoring for D3, but these console releases are appealing to the masses...why do you think the PC gets no real love any more? Cause the fan base is sitting on their couches staring at 50" tvs.

Blizz said D3 beta in Q3, it hit in the final 12 days of Q3.. This leads me to believe a mid to late march release. Then again, it could come out in July for all we know D:

Agreed. I do not believe this date one bit...just interesting how this new article proudly places in feb...heres to hoping they are right...but not getting my damn hopes up.

NEW article shows D3 in FEB...Not sure where they got it, but tinfoil hats are welcome.

THIS CONTEST NEEDS TO END

you cant take 1-2 min walking and stretching breaks? i use one of those fancy mesh things with all sorts of adjustable whatnots...it suits me fine but im not as heavy as you.

you still need to get up and walk like every 2 hours or so, otherwise you can get clots.

I do get up...its just the cheap chairs wear out after a while. I want a chair that is gonna last a good while. Went to junkyard today to try and find ideas for a good seat, but the cars there really didn't have any great seats, excepts for an 05 pt cruiser seat...was nice. I want leather tho and most are exposed to the elements and are cracked it appears. I'm going to a different one tomorrow to see what they have. thanks for the advice so far guys.

So I work from home and sit for at LEAST 8-12 hrs a day. I need to find a chair that is comfy as hell and does not feel like I am sitting on a board. I am 230 lbs, so not small, so I would rather something coushy vs ergonomical like mesh chairs and lumbar support. I have had a few rad ideas on making my own out of a nice car seat chair video like the one in that video...but I want a nice leather one. I have looking high and dry and know that most $100 chairs are not ideal for over 4hrs. So, I am asking you guys to either post info, your chair, or just give me so advice on what to do really. My ass is calling out in pain! The only thing, is i sometimes sit with my leg tucked under my other leg, so bungee chairs might not work as my foot would slip through. thanks dudes and dudettes

Not trying to be negative or ungrateful for this contest, but there needs to be a more logical? way to do this. Maybe somehow track people actively listening to a podcast and have a random drawing for all that are on, or just reduce the time allowed for this contest as their is no way the staff can objectively review all those posts as its just too large a sample and I am sure it will be just "settling" on somebodies, whether they were new or a seasoned vet of the site. I mean, I just now started posting, but I have been visiting this site when IT was diablo3...some have just shown up via word of mouth to try and score a beta key and I get that its gonna score new members, but are they really here for the long term? Oh well, good luck to all that tried and good luck to the winner....may Gheed guide you to the promised land!

Edit: I also did not review most of them before I posted and realized a few attempted similar to mine when I woke up and decided to shop one (Portal attempt). That said, after I looked at most I realized many had just grabbed an image online and slapped on there...at least I tried to make mine legit...and added a turret! Link to page!

I liked a few and really only liked ones that were shopped and not just text on there, as most were just mindless and lame.

this contest really has to end...this is too much...they cant possibly look at all these and be subjective about it. Has to be a better way of doing this. Either shorten the contest period or make it completely random to people and do via a podcast or something...get them engaged and do it.

Here goes my attempt and good luck to all!

Pff KFC, real men get Popeye's! KFC= Krusty F**king Cock oh and I unloaded in your slaw sweet pea

umm I would like to haz one as well I need a loot whoring game at the moment.

I fall in love with everyone that gets behind this system. I hope to god they keep it in and allow this cat and mouse game of the perfect build to exist. I am sorry, I just want random, luck/no luck, I gotta keep going aspects in my Diablo. I do not want...Hey level 60 donzies! Make it exciting to get that bomb ass build and allow others to stand out for doing so. I DO NOT WANT WHAT EVERYBODY ELSE HAS! my rant, nothing to see here.

Quote from Veggie50

Ironically when blizzard merged with activision, people cried that activision would push blizzard to releasing games before they're done...

Now that this turns out to not be true, people cry that they wish activision pushed blizzard xD

Touche....I am ok with Blizzard waiting to release. Their games have longevity and its not 35hrs and done. D2 is still rather very playable but gross looking. If you slapped a paint job on D2, it would be one of the best games out IMO. I have waited 10 years, I can wait a few more months. Plus saves me money as I have kids and xmas is time for family, but after that...eff em...I am in my man cave loot whoring till I have Nuts are Indigo.

It never ceases to amaze me how much time, money and effort Blizzard will throw into things that it may or may not actually do. I have to imagine that they are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars looking into porting the game to the console and my guess is, they will probably never actually release it for the console, or if they do, it will be so different that they will look like completely different games.

I wonder if it's frustrating or what to put in years of work to just have your company say "man, this was a bad idea, we're not going to do it"

That already happened years ago. No bonus points if you can't remember which game got canned.
There will be a D3 console version. There isn't a problem with implementing it. The main and most difficult thing to integrate is the console to PC connection which will let players from both worlds play with each other. That is one of the toughest things to do in a right way.

Starcraft Ghost...now give me my cookies while all these WoW noobs that came over to the Diablo side go away...I KID I KID. I have just been playing Diablo since day one. I remember reading about it even seeing the AD in an old PC Gamer mag. I then bought it, Hellfire, D2 and LOD and will buy 2 copies of D3. Wife said she will game with me if I get her some fake tits....WIN WIN!

Quote from Molsterr

no its not completely possible...
They are still hiring people, they have just started throwing together ideas for this thing. They dont know if it will play the way they want. This is blizzard we are talking about, they dont care if it will "double the people who play" if what they end up playing is not what blizzard imagined them to be playing, the console version is a ways off, we will not be seeing a delay due to the console version, blizzard is not dumb. If they were doing a straight port, then MAYYBE (and I mean a very small maybe) I could see this happening... but its not, thus I dont see it happening.

I am a noob posting here, but I completely agree. If Valve does not have STEAM integrated into the PS3 yet, you better believe that it will be a pain to get B.Net onto either system. Also, M$ police(s) so much content they would not even bother allowing a a company to make money of their system via the RMAH...just wont happen IMO. I do agree that it will increase the playerbase and we saw that a little bit with the Torchlight port, but this is not lowly Runic Games, this is a mega rock star with investors and stock and all that fun stuff that dictate when things need to happen. If they do decide to do it, and I think they will, it will be original and take time...lots of it, as that is their MO when it comes to products. They wont shovel it out there because it has a proven IP on the PC. So my .02 it will probably happen, but will not slow the production of D3 on the PC....I think the Beta is what caused that (bugs, broken resources, not enough rainbows.)
