Blizz "3rd Team" title upcoming..

The past of the Diablo story was in.... Diablo 1, and before that there wasn't any problems until the 'Evils' started to emerge, that's where the rest of the stories came from... So I really don't see how the story could go into prequel mode, i'd much rather have it progress, like you mentioned vollvs.

There are stories from before Diablo 1.

If anyone has Diablo 1 for playstation(I do), you can listen to a bunch of stories on there. There's a whole section on the CD that has stories about the prime evils and hell and etc. Even though the game sucks, there's a LOT of information there.

Ive only read the first sin war book but demons like lilith are around at that point so I guess we could be fighting the sons/daughters of the prime evils. I can't remember the demon that got wtf pwnt at the end of the first book though... I think it might of been meph's son. I believe lilith is his daughter.

Diablo:Hellfire is the tits!

I doubt they'd use that material though to make another game, but who knows, blizzard loves suprising their customers. I mean hell, Blizzcon is only a week away, so i'm sure we will find out soon enough

If they have a cool cinematic trailer and 15 mins of gameplay like they did for SC2 I will probably be cleaning up a mess on saturday.

There's a new quote on the Blizzcon site about the BETA signups and playing from "underneath" or something, hold on i'll go look it up.

Beta Key In addition to giving you the opportunity to become a terror from the deep, the goody bag you receive will also contain an access code for an upcoming Blizzard beta test. Enter the code on our website and sign up to be contacted when the upcoming beta test is ready for you to join. While beta tests give us a chance to fine-tune our work, they also allow participants to try out and give feedback on a Blizzard title before it becomes available to the general public.

Could be interesting, just gotta wait til the 3rd, oh wait. That's in 2 days

I would think that that would be the beta for SC2, there is no way they could be anywhere close to beta stage for a Diablo 3. I highly doubt it will even be beta testing before next years Blizzcon. This year is probably beta keys for SC2 and perhaps next year will be d3 (hopefully not some WoW ex pak ).

WoW Expansion is coming, Blizzard has made it clear that they're attempting yearly expansions. If they all change the game as much as TBC did, I imagine their playerbase will shrink appreciably.
