Anyone else really stoked about Diablo III? It's convinced me to attend Blizzcon this year. Well, that and a chance to maybe play Starcraft 2.

Hell's yes! I've been wanting a new Diablo since I played the hell out of D2. Really looking forward to SC2 as well, but not near as excited about it as I am D3.

[amchine]

Yeah, I haven't been this pumped about a game in a long time. It's nice to see Blizzard going back to their roots with an RTS and action RPG.

[Dazz]

Did you see where they announced that they also have a new IP in the works? Other than D2?

[amchine]

No. Can ya link it?

Looks like the petition for Diablo 3 has like 45,000 signatures to redo the artwork in Diablo 3, I admit that I think the artwork does need to have a much darker evil feel to it and the screenshots of suggestions do look to be much better than the actual Diablo screenshots. I am sig 45297.

You should definitely consider playing through both Diablo and Diablo 2 plus Lord of destruction. I went out and bought the Diablo Archive a few days ago because I've never read any of the books and this has four of them in one volume. So far I've been pretty well hooked on it. The Diablo universe is by far my favorite Blizzard universe, though I love them all.

BBB, I took a look at the petition and after seeing before and after shots I can kind of agree with the petition, however, I trust Blizzard to produce a game that will kick ass and I think they know what they are doing. The added color is going to give you more contrast than the previous games and I think that is good.

I'm sure the game will be awesome for sure, it just looks a little fruity on graphics for what it is.
