The goal of this thread is to put the rapidly growing amount of newsand rumors that are building up around Diablo 3 possibly beingannounced at the Blizzard Worldwide Invitational.
Re: Blizzard's Worldwide Invitational
Last year Blizzard announced Starcraft 2, this year many rumours arefloating around that a Diablo 3 announcement is going to take place.
It would make sense to use this event to announce what millions of fans have been waiting for.
Also, i would like to point out that June 29th is the Diablo 2 releasedate anniversary. What a perfect day to announce the next Diablo.
