Diablo III

I bet we'll see a full release of Portal in the next couple years and probably a TF2 expansion. That's something to get excited over.

Wake me up when Valve makes an RPG/MMO... THAT will be worth the mental masturbation.

Wake me up when Valve does anything...don't get me wrong, I love Valve...but they've got to be the slowest development team ever.

I just want some TF2 updates, please! :X
 
They'd better add hotkeys and UI addon functionality.

Ideally this will have a good campaign mode, farmable 'runs' and pvp class balance, as well as frequent patches expanding the content without milking people in the form of wasteful "expansion packs".

Oh, and it better not be a monthly fee either. Battle.net has always been an inclusive service.

Would be nice but i wouldnt hold my breath
 
This game looks thoroughly underwhelming.

I think Blizzard REALLY is using it's fans' fanaticism to make millions without really bothering to do anything creative.
 
I base it on the fact that blizzard is still capable of recycling 1997 material and making millions off of it.

I realize that this makes blizzard sound like they're timeless, but I am just annoyed by the fact that they have their fans by the balls.

I mean, FFS, did you just see that vid of a kid sticking a remote up his ass to express his anger against his mom deleting his WoW account?
 
haha, that was awesome.

how do you figure that they are recycling material from 97 though? all of their games, while sharing a similar theme, have been substantially different. warcraft 2 was great, followed by starfcraft which was also great, and then wc3 which I think is the best rts ever made. even diablo 2 was way more complex than #1.

granted, I have never played wow, but I get the feeling it was pretty innovative and cutting edge too. IN fact, I'm not really sure what the fact that wow has insane fans has to do with blizzard recycling material at all.

anyway, I have found blizzard to be the best, most consistent game producers by a mile. i admit that their graphics are not always all that, but graphics aren't really important to me. strategy and interesting gameplay are the most important things to me in games, and all the warcraft games/starcraft had an abundance of both. you even had to use your head a fair bit in the diablos, which is more than I can say for 99% of the games I play these days. I don't know why diablo 3 would be any different. have you seen a demo or trailers or something?

and the only reason they have their fans by the balls is that they make such kickass games. that doesn't bother me one bit.

I agree somewhat. I cant deny the fact that i do see a pattern of recycling material happening. The BC expansion of WoW really made me realize just how unbelievably lazy they can be.

However, i really enjoy there games, and i think the new MMO that's currently under development which they've said will be based off an entirely new universe will prove to me how successfully they can take themselfs outside of the existing 3 universe's.
 
I cannot wait for this game, been playing II to death with my mate over the past month. Just about to finish Hell mode with my Paladin and his Sorceress.

Is there a release date yet?
 
I heard rumors that it's going to be released Xmas 2009. Though I'd like to believe that rumor, I don't believe it!

I seriously cannot wait much longer for this, I havent been exited about games coming out in years. But Diablo was something I played for many many hours.. I had all the expansions D1 and D2.

Anyone else got any more info about release dates?
