    I can't wait for Diablo 3!

    I remember buying Diablo when that launched back in the day, and of course, Diablo 2 playing with all my buds when it was the rage.

    Although there was a bad ass Diablo III HYPE thread made by Sterb a while back, I'm happy to post in this one too as you do great work Nap!...and this one is no exception.

    Great job!

    Great thread!

    Voted for AA.

    Diablo 2 and its expansion got less than AAA so I wouldn't be surprised if the same happens with D3.

    Here's the deal (from someone who watches D3 news really close)
    On Jay Wilson's (lead director) twitter, a subscriber asked "on a scale of 1 to 10 how close are we to the a release date announcement?" Wilson said "9." He also posted on the official forums saying a date was on its way. I think it will come out sooner then we think.

    Did you make sure to ask a mod if you can make this hype thread? I've been working on one as well and it'd be a shame if I got permission first and have this one locked

    Really want this game. Been dying to try the monk class. Knowing me I'll probably use the Wizard the most out of all the classes.

    Right, the delay is past now. Bliz has already said they're releasing the game in Q2 (April-June) so it's gotta' be around the corner.
