Blizzcon 2007 Announced - Diablo 3 announcement please!

After a couple months of wondering what happened with Blizzcon, Blizzard has finally announced the second Blizzard Convention!

Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. today announced plans for its second BlizzCon gaming convention. BlizzCon is a celebration of the Warcraft, StarCraft, and Diablo franchises and the players who have helped make them so popular around the world. This year's event will take place at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California on August 3 and 4, and will feature various activities for attendees to take part in.

This would be the perfect chance to finally announce their next game, which hopefully is Diablo 3.

I think Blizzard is well aware of the Diablo cravings from their fans.

But everything is always the perfect chance to announce something. Next year is also the perfect chance, and the year after. Though I do obviously still hope they say something this year.

What about all the rumors about Starcraft 2, lately? Here's another new one: http://au.pc.ign.com/articles/779/779920p1.html

To be completely honest, Diablo III and StarCraft II probably share the same amount of rumors, but StarCraft II rumors seem more legitimate and official.

dont hope too much. Theres not much of a chance for it. And if you believe it too much you might get dissappointed and angry. We wouldnt want that, would we? ^^

there's prolly going to be no announcement or a WoW expansion this time. I'd expect Diablo 3 next year. I hope i'm wrong but i dont believe it.

If you truly believe

Only even been one Blizzcon, and The Burning Crusade was announced there. Blizzard wants to shoot out one expansion very year. TBC was 2007, and Blizzcon is coming up. I think it's a fair bet to say that WoW's 2nd expansion is coming here.

Nope, there wer threee unannounced projects. Doesn't mean they'll all be announced in 07, only that they ar being worked on. Whether they are announced this year or not won't affect the development duration anyway, so the only thing an announcement would do is tell us when it comes out, not dictate when it is actually released.

Diablo will have some pretty tough competition as long as it stays in the Action RPG genre. But since the game is a favorite to millions, it might not have much competition.
