Maybe they can just make a new Diablo 2 expansion instead of Diablo 3. I think I'd prefer that.

As long as it ups the resolution and addresses the problem of Auras.

I'm hoping my memory is just shit, but I played the fuck outta D2 and I've only seen that movie now on Youtube. What the hell ? It's the prelude to Act 4 in the main D2 game, Act 4 is the act where you start off in the little outpost of heaven on the edge of hell, with Tyrael and only a couple of others. Its the act where you ultimately kill Diablo.

Oh, right, also. The numbers being revealed seem to be a red herring.

Also, this theory that's being tossed around of them mixing the 3 worlds together is the silliest fucking thing I've ever heard in gaming. The sort of godawful frankenstein piece of shit title that could come out of that makes my skin crawl.

Looking at the WWI media, the runes and the 'clues', it seems like they are balancing all three products. Which still points to Diablo since it is the only one which hasn't been updated. I seriously doubt any kind of cross-over is in the works. That would be risky, and Blizzard has no reason to be risky. Damn you, Hope.

Uhh you Diablos people are sad. Really.
Lets see what we know:
Thay're working on a new MMO, have been for some time. The Warcraft movie is in the works.
Logically one of these would be more likely than a diablo 3 people just want but we dont know they've bene working on. So:
If it's Diabloish it's most likely to be as a MMO. If it's not it's most likely to be a new world MMO. Or Warcraft the movie media campaign begins now.
Or It's Diablo 3.

From the picture they're piecing together I almost expect "Blizzard Presents: Whamdoodles Online, 2010"

Awesome. So you think they'll get Winger to do the art himself, or just train their in-house staff in his style then?

If it isn't Diablo this time, I will fucking cry and make a LEAVE DIABLO ALONE video and put it out on youtube and spam it to Mike Morhaime. I swear to Jesus.

They will simply announce that their next strategy game wont be called "Starcraft 2" after all, but "Warcraft 40000". With Terrans, Protoss, Zerg, Orcs and various Demons beating the crap out of each other. Oh, and they will probably squeeze some vikings in there too.

I'm still going to stick with the melded-IP theory. Or perhaps a new line of miniatures and a set of rulebooks.

diabloii.net just basically confirmed D3 on Saturday. Diablo 3 Announcement at WWI 25th Jun 2008 04:56 PM GMT by Rushster 13 comments
With this week's speculation over the Blizzard teasers, more and more reports in the media, and numerous tips coming direct us at IncGamers from reliable inside industry sources in the past 24 hours, we now have confirmation from inside sources to say that Diablo 3 WILL be announced on Saturday at WWI Paris 2008.
With that in mind, we would like to invite Diabloii.net readers to submit their questions for us to ask Blizzard.
This is extremely exciting for all of us here at Diabloii.net. For the past 10 years we have been supporting the Diablo community and to have something completely new to sink our teeth into is fantastic. We will be at the show on Saturday for the announcement and also the press conference which is directly after, so expect reports from the show floor live, interviews and much more.

I'm all for a WORLD OF DIABLO type game so long as someone from Blizzard has played Mythos and realized that they could do the same type of thing as that (and Guildwars) but on a much grand-ER scale, with a much better license, and with much more money to throw at people to create the thing.
So long as I'm fighting a screen full of enemies at a time and the ring .wav is still there, I'm playing it.

While all signs do point to it being D3, I'd take any 'inside information' with a grain of salt. WAIT, HEY GUYS, I JUST GOT SOME INSIDE INFORMATION FROM BLIZZARD - THE NEXT GAME WILL BE SIM TOWER 2 THEY BOUGHT THE RIGHTS FROM MAXIS
