- Thebruce88, on 03/10/2009, -3/+74The "unnamed designers" might have dropped a date that Blizzard is aiming for, but that's not how Blizzard does *****.
A. When making a sequel to one of the most popular online RPG's ever, why would they confine themselves to a release date? They've always been all "when it's done".
B. Even if this was real (which I highly doubt), knowing Blizzard it will be pushed back to add polish, balance, and more playtesting. - ZackAttack007, on 03/10/2009, -1/+66I'll believe it when I see it
- WickedRasputin, on 03/10/2009, -3/+62Why would any company release a product so close to christmas. Not only would no one be able to buy it in time but Blizzard employees would be busy all of christmas trying to fix the inevitable server crashes and bugs.
Calling BS. - FOR3MAN, on 03/10/2009, -1/+49I'm confused, So... Starcraft II is coming out like next week, or the week after?
- Shawn4168, on 03/10/2009, -0/+40Last I checked, Diablo III is still being developed by Blizzard. Don't count on it.
- inactive, on 03/10/2009, -2/+40I'll be waiting patiently for Diablo 3. Blizzard never fails
- fuckingusername, on 03/10/2009, -0/+35Ill be dead by then
- cachemoney, on 03/10/2009, -0/+34Just make sure you don't log out after or you'll lose all your gear.
- billricardi, on 03/10/2009, -0/+32"...according to a rumour on the website kaputik.com..."
So we've got a rumor about the release date of a game, reported by a website nobody has heard of, re-reported by a next-to-nothing website. And the rumor says that beta is supposed to start... on 9/11? Yeeeeeeeah. - Bhatch514, on 03/10/2009, -0/+31My condolences to your family
- lithera, on 03/10/2009, -0/+26A: Blizzard never sets a release date, at least not public.
B: I highly doubt any developer has a releasedate set in stone 9 months before that date.
C: It would be absolutely ***** insane to release such a high anticipated game just one day before Christmas.
In other words, don't count on it. - teamr, on 03/10/2009, -0/+24December this year? Blizzard? I'll believe it when I'm holding a copy
- pradaaddict, on 03/10/2009, -2/+24I can't see them releasing on Christmas Eve, that would be the stupidest release date in the history of Video Games. Everyone will have bought another game for Christmas long before that and they won't risk not getting a copy on the 24th just because someone realllyyyy wants it and cash is usually tight after Christmas so they'll see slow sales.
This rumor cannot be true, it would be suicide for Blizzards first month sales of the game to have a Dec24 release. - NeelxSarkar, on 03/10/2009, -14/+36I think I can speak for everyone when I say "I just creamed in my pants"
- reyoo30309, on 03/10/2009, -2/+22Some of us are still waiting on SC: Ghost.
- inactive, on 03/10/2009, -6/+26What do you know? Looks like Diablo III will be out this year.
- d2cole, on 03/10/2009, -0/+19that's not the logo
this is:

- aspec, on 03/10/2009, -0/+17Not to mention putting huge lines and pissed off people together with already huge lines and pissed off people who do last minute Xmas shopping.
- Daxx22, on 03/10/2009, -1/+16Blizzard never announces release dates before it's done. That's not to say they won't have internal target dates for completion, and that's what's been leaked.
- phpirate, on 03/10/2009, -0/+14Beta release on 9/11?
Diablo III: Lord of Terrorism. - kostka, on 03/10/2009, -0/+13Even Blizzard doesn't know when it'll be released yet. Stop making ***** up.
- hamobu, on 03/10/2009, -0/+13Devil is released on Christmas eve?
- teamr, on 03/10/2009, -0/+11lol!
- iDiggYa, on 03/10/2009, -0/+11My pary are with yor father
- reyoo30309, on 03/10/2009, -2/+12I think people believe this garbage because they honestly want to believe.
- agronbach, on 03/10/2009, -1/+11http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4
- teamr, on 03/10/2009, -0/+10@CarStan - Only about 10 million of em
- JLSigman, on 03/10/2009, -1/+9Because Blizzard suddenly split the game up into three separate games "in order to tell the story", I don't think it's going to drop any time soon, to be perfectly honest.
- Stiles05s, on 03/10/2009, -0/+8source?
- joshf52, on 03/10/2009, -0/+8Blizzard always makes their games accessible to less powerful machines.
- rockstar1o9, on 03/10/2009, -0/+8if it's released on Christmas Eve, you'd actually be spending the night of the 23rd in front of Gamestop.
- Vindexus, on 03/10/2009, -0/+84?
- stuffradio, on 03/10/2009, -0/+8Sham WoW!
- DCstewieG, on 03/10/2009, -0/+8No I don't because they didn't. Blizz usually (always?) announces the release date during/after public beta testing.
- Vindexus, on 03/10/2009, -0/+7"Your gear will meet you in the afterlife." - Quintus (Gladiator)
- Protoss, on 03/10/2009, -0/+7And that's what he said. They're probably PLANNING on a Christmas Eve release, but this is Blizzard. Come October they'll probably re-write some major part of the game.
- cigawoot, on 03/10/2009, -0/+6The system requirements and the release date is what Blizzard is shooting for internally. The final system requirements and release date will likely not be this. I fully expect Diablo III to be released in 2010.
We probably won't know more until Blizzcon in 2009. - KingKeys, on 03/10/2009, -0/+6Doubt it.
- newgameartist, on 03/10/2009, -0/+6; i am truley sorry for your lots.
- twiztidsinz, on 03/10/2009, -0/+6It's CoD4... It's never a serious post...
Just more internet trolling from Diggs #1 Troll - FearFactory, on 03/10/2009, -0/+6The Mice, Shall Click
- seanstuart, on 03/10/2009, -1/+6Actually I think it will be released on April 1st.
- Yazilliclick, on 03/10/2009, -0/+5haha wow
I never even bothered reading the article since it was so obviously ***** from just the title, but the 9/11 thing also? haha this is just sad that it's being spread around. - Jhiaxuz, on 03/10/2009, -0/+5I hope those system requirements are accurate. It's nice to see they are taking the approach they have always taken when it comes to what kind of machine is required to run the game rather than corner only a portion of the market to play it properly.
- frepnog, on 03/10/2009, -2/+7"This rumor cannot be true, it would be suicide for Blizzards first month sales of the game to have a Dec24 release."
is there anyone that truly thinks that Diablo 3 will not be a blockbuster regardless of when it releases? Blizzard KNOWS they could release the game on the same day that Christ returned, and the Diablo 3 release would overshadow the second coming. jeez. - CrazySpaniard, on 03/11/2009, -0/+5http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/kotaku/2008/ ...
- Stiles05s, on 03/10/2009, -0/+4Sadly, It's still just a rumor.
- johnomaz, on 03/10/2009, -9/+13Actually, please just speak for yourself. Its a freaking video game. yes, a much anticipated one, but still...
