Wow....

So, they show Diablo 3 back in 2008 and what they show then looked pretty good... it's now 2011 and they still won't be releasing it... Actually, this is classic Blizzard.

I think the appropriate internet Meme for this situation would be...

Fuuuuuuuuuuu!

Computersaysno5581d ago

Its Blizzard. Says enough!

They dont do schedules.

Persistantthug5581d ago

On the plus side...

I can't wait to play DIABLO 3 on my PS3. ;)

gamingdroid5581d ago (Edited 5581d ago )

Just bring back Starcraft: Ghost Blizzard. I can wait as long as it is coming!

edit: @Cheeseknight28 below

I care because I can only imagine a stealth like game on console made to Blizzards standard. Ghost in itself is also an interesting character despite the novel. I want Starcraft: Ghost!

Redo the asset, redo the story or whatever, but just bring it!

Cheeseknight285581d ago

Why do people still care about Ghost? I mean, the character already had a novel and had a minor role in Starcraft II so I seriously doubt they will ever bother restarting development. They would have to start over from scratch too, the story would have to be redone and all the graphical assets are outdated.

It's just not going to happen.

does this mean the Zerg and Protoss expansion pack for StarCraft II not coming this year too? that SUCKS!

I'm not expecting any NEW game release, knowing Blizzard, but SCII expansion is kinda like a no brainer for this year, no?

WTF is wrong with ActiBliz these days??!

This is why I hate STOCKHOLDERS!! They have too much influence of creativity and product that it gets to the point of share holder profit over customer satisfaction.
No Diablo 3 means Torchlite 2 and Darkspore will have ZERO competition. Starcraft 2 Heart of The Swarm looks to be pushed back to 2012 as well, GREAT!

so now 2012 looks to be Half Life 2 ep3 Far Cry 3 Doom 4 SC2:HotS Diablo 3 maybe a new Lineage and I'm sure another Warcraft expansion or the new Blizzard MMOFPS plus STALKER 2 Metro 2034 and Bioshock Infinite.

I'm all for quality but 10 years between games is crazy. Many gamers were excited about playing Diablo 3 this year.

hehe

We just have to believe it'll be worth the wait.

syrinx5581d ago

Yeh bad news for Diablo fans :(

Maticus5581d ago

Didn't see that coming. Probably working on some crappy console port of the game delaying its release.

Blizzard Wants Faster Diablo Releases and More Expansions

Blizzard reveals plans to speed up Diablo releases with more frequent expansions and updates as the franchise moves toward a live-service future.

QuantumMechanic83d ago

All I want is a physical disc release of remastered D2 that doesn't require online check-ins.

VonAlbrecht83d ago

Ah, more and fast - the antithesis of careful and good

Christopher83d ago (Edited 83d ago )

I've lost complete interest. Too much FOMO with seasons as it is, now it's expansions? No thanks.

Michiel198983d ago

what fomo? everything gets reset each season and you start new characters unless you're playing on the regular servers and then you're already maxxed anway and just need to participate in the new season stuff.

Michiel198982d ago

i played only during launch and i found the ones in that battlepass to be absolute dogwater, the only ones that looked somewhat cool were the paid ones in the store and i wont bother with either. The game itself was just so hollow, there were no cool builds cause every synergy was just "x or y skills does more dmg or has this extra effect" almost no experimentation needed, couldnt give a rats ass about armor if the core of the game is boring af.
