Blizzard acquires Diablo3.com
"A statement on Diablo3.com yesterday indicated that the site was changing its URL to DiabloFans.com at Blizzard's behest, and that it was in the process of transferring the old domain to the Diablo publisher.
Knowing that such an acquisition would send the Internet rumourmongers into overdrive, Blizzard made it clear to mockery, the administrator of the fansite in question, that "this shouldn't be considered an announcement" of Diablo 3.
Blizzard's denial hasn't done much to slow the rumour mill, however, especially given the fact that this year's Blizzard invitational is only two months away. Last year's equivalent event was the scene of the surprise announcement of Starcraft 2, and the Paris event would be an appropriate stage for Diablo 3 to be introduced to the world."
This year's worldwide invitational in Paris falls on the 28th and 29th of June. Both diablo 2 and lod were released on the 29th of June. I am expecting an announcement on that day!
mmorpg step aside..ahahahaha..
Hmm.... I guess Diablo III will pick up from where LoD ends? Perhaps the destruction of the Worldstone by Tyrael would set the stage for Diablo III?
Anyway, I guess we shouldn't be speculating too much.... after all, prior to the announcement of Starcraft II, everyone seemed to think that they were coming up with a World of Starcraft MMORPG.
Speaking of which.... when is Starcraft II coming out?
the usual phrase: "when it's done."..
50 more days to go....

the usual as always "when it's done." however an interview revealed the following: "We kind of have this rule of, ideally, we announce a game a year to a year and a half before the game comes out. " personally i thk it would probably be abt 2 yrs.
