You mean the Titan project that got scrapped and started from scratch couple of months ago? I surely hope it will be as im very eager to see what they have cooking there but I doubt that in 3-4 months they can show something other than concept art for a game that will be completed in another 5 years...
I don't understand why are you still wondering what the announcement is. Blizzard have hinted it in their statement "We're making a special announcement that's sure to capture the attention of the Heavens, Burning Hells, and all the shadowed places that lie between.", couple that with the leaked production slate of Blizzard that places D3 Expansion in second Q of 2013, its clear that the announcement is about the new Diablo's expansion.
Sorry for those of you who are disappointed. I sure am.
@Goron24 What, really? Well that is not nice. The whole "tactical third person" change smells like -we want console market, so i am going to be quite reserved for this game.
Hey Snake, sorry to hear that man. Im not buying this on discount, the prices of console games are always higher than the PC ones. Im in Europe, Slovakia (at the moment). But this is all over EU like this, for example game.co.uk in the UK sells games with the same difference as the ones i can find in my country. Check it out- Bioshock PS3 is 37.99 pounds, infinite Xbox is the same and infinite PC is 27.99, which is a difference of 10 pounds (15USD).
Consoles might be cheaper, but at the end you give up more money buying console games than the same PC games and if you play a lot of games then the PC become cheaper. Each console game is 10-20 eurs+ more expensive than its PC counterpart. Example- Bioshock infinite PC- 30 eur, Bioshock Infinite PS3- 50 eur.
This year i have already bought 5 new games for PC which means that if i had a console instead i would have spent around 100 eur (128 usd) more. Thats just in 4 months, at the end of the year if i buy jsut another 5 new games, that would be more than 200 eur saved because i play on PC. Oh yes, my PC is also 2 yrs old, i paid 700 eurs back then and im still able to play most games on high details.
So how are consoles so much better? Consoles are much user friendly, you don't need to know how to work a computer, you don't need to know how parts work, what they do or how to install windows. You just plug it in and play on the ultra comfortable game pad. Its a simplified computer for the every day use, kids and family. But please dont kid yourself that it is cheap, at the end after 4 yrs you would have paid so much more money than if you had a PC those 4 yrs.
They are counting how much new accounts are created not how much are cancelled. The funny thing is till now you cannot really cancel an account with them so their number show a lot of accounts that are really not active at all. Only the payment sub can be cancelled but not the whole account. I, as many other people have tried to totally cancel my account, as to have my data erased from their servers, unfortunately that is not possible. Yay for corporate manipulation of artificially keeping their sub numbers high!
Hope this game wakes up the PC industry. I am tired of console ports. You cant skip the credits in the begining on ports...i hate that. Poor console players have to endure that crap each time they start their game.
