But in all honesty did anyone have any doubt? I mean Blizzard didn’t get to be one of the biggest players in the PC gaming pantheon by being stupid. As a matter of fact they’re one of a small handful that has had real success in the PC realm and proven that it can be done when done right. Diablo is a landmark franchise, and the first is practically legendary, wasn’t it really more a matter of when, rather than if?

And with talk of a new BIG announcement, that really should have been the only clue needed to figure out it was Diablo 3. WoTLK is already known, Lost Vikings would not be considered BIG news (sorry Viking fans), and not to call the Blizzard devs un-original but they are not know for new franchises. And why should they? If they continue to hold to their solid design, incredible style, and maintain fun-factor they should be able to milk Starcraft, Warcraft and Diablo for a few more iterations.

For all those who stuck by their Diablo vote for the big reveal, give yourself a pat on the back. UR teh W33Nerz!

Not that this answers any questions, but it does help add fuel to the fire and should let all you internet sleuths with more time on their hands than I get crackin’ at your wild speculations. Have fun kids
