Any further word on the Console version rumor?

Which one?

Most likely both (360 and PS3 that is).

I can think of no reason for Activision not to go dual platform on the matter.

Thanks to twitter hints its 100% happening Kronk, but no ideas when and how far down the line they are. I am hoping we get a surprise announcement at E3.

I am guessing Blizzard will make some kind of appearance there this year, as without a Blizzcon I can't believe they'd go totally dark on any new news for a whole year.

Gamescon is a larger convention than E3 these days so if not at E3 definitely at Gamescon imo.

Thank you, gentlemen.

I guess I'll wait on that, then.

Ill be picking it up.

Im kinda sad when ive heard pvp wont be there on release.

its something to look forward to since GW2 looks like Gak.

PvP has always been the least important aspect of the Diablo series for me...

Completely agree with you there Melissia! the most anoying thing was when you and a few people were trying to go threw a difficult part (if you wanted to skip getting rushed) and some donkey comes along and PKs everyone until you leave

Sorely tempted to go to Gamescom this year.

You can roll it into a trip to visit Munich and its historic beer halls.

I went in 2010 and loved it, Köln is a gorgeous place.

The only time I enjoyed Diablo 2 was when I played it with my younger brother over a three day weekend. I had bought the diablo battlechest (and found that I disliked the singleplayer experiance) but he wanted to give it a try so he borrowed a disk form a friend.

It was fun for those three days and then we took a break once school started back up and never picked up from where we left off.

To do the same thing for diablo 3 would cost us $120USD + tax, and a good internet connection.

So, I will not be buying it.

I’m not that excited for D3 to be honest. I think this is partly to do with D3 requiring an internet connection and the “wacky” choice of classes. I might pick up D3 if the console version supports local offline co-op otherwise I think I’ll save my money for Guild Wars 2.

My main hope is that the "real money" auction house works the way i think its going to, i might actualy be able to have a bit of spending money on the side instead of it all going to gas/ property/ other expenses. So yeah Diablo III is a first day pick up for me ( since I have enjoyed all the other Diablo games/ expansions)

Aye the market will probably be a bit flooded though. It'll be pretty luck based as well.

A bit like when I first got into City of Heroes last summer a item that lets you respec dropped. I put in on the AH there, and due to the way it works, It went for something crazy like 50million credits.

That alt literally has stupid money because of a item drop. Which ironically since it went free to play, is now a £2 payment option.

Obviously we'll be talking way smaller than that with real money terms, but for example if a rare item dropped I knew was selling for £5 -10, I'd have to cash it in.

I'll pull what i always did in WoWs auction house, sell lower then everyone else while still turning a profit since i never bought anything

Also nice job on the CoH item
