Diablo III Official at Blizzard World Wide International

Blizzard breaks out the info and footage breaks out to the net already.
*note this image isn't from DIablo III, it just looked nice to include for a news shot.
For those following information on Diablo III lately it was recently pitched that WWI would be the grounds where info on the game would break. Well for those that were hoping for it, that has come true to the extreme with not only an announcement but a demo has already been made for the public showing that the game is well into development at this point and is way more than just an idea on paper.
Execution like this also tips off that there's a good chance that those assaulting Blizzcon this year will be able to catch some Diablo III hands on time if they're lucky.
With this said lets go onto the videos for the game currently out, I'll be working to relocate these to be hosted through us in the event of youtube pulling these.
Yeah it seems people were waiting on anything they could find, given the presentation I can't say I'm not impressed. Blizzard really went out of the way to revive a franchise that will probably last them quite a long span with many chances for expansions to hit.
I'll be pretty psyched to get my hands on it come Blizzcon in October for sure though, probably just as much as I will for SCII XD I know it'll be hard to press myself to actually play Lich King at all there but I'm sure given a miracle or a busy press kiosk I'll get to it as well for coverage sake.
People STILL play the second one! This one looks like a really big improvement from the last one. I'm sure that this game will last for many years to come.
I watched the unveiling live via Blizzard's WWI stream at 2:45 am PST with my friend on Ventrilo (after playing some SC to past the time, heh). We were both hoping it wasn't some lame WoW announcement. Then we caught Grubby vs Sky live on the tournament stage, I love how Blizzard has all the important events streaming live.
Wait, what. You're going to do a hands on with it at Blizzcon?!?! thats awesome, when is it? I totally wanna check back and see the real firsthand impressions from you guys!
Is it just you or is it like a team going along? TAKE PICTURES OR VIDEO!
From the actual staff we'll be doing a single reporter this year for the event most likely, I'll hit anything they have available for playing or viewing and try to sneak out what footage I can manage on DV or through my camera.
It's a bit much asking for 2 when they're basically giving out $200 just for press coverage that one person can do on their own in most cases unless its a video team with a bunch of light kits.
Impressions and all that good stuff will be up asap, no worries I wont appropriate a press release and claim it's actual gameplay.
