Some very very strong rumors

The beginning of 2008 couldn't ever get better! Really, now, we can all go to sleep and wait. Because the God of Gaming, in this particular case - Blizzard, has listened to our prayers and decided to show some sympathy towards us, the mortal gamers (according to some digging made by hardgame2.com). And what prayers did we send them since forever? "Give us Diablo III" sounds familiar? Of course! And it seems that it's going to happen!

You probably understand that, at the moment, no official words have been heard about this, but the few (huge) hints we have will be the beginning of the hype and we will most likely get some answers really soon. The first reason to be glad is a domain name registered by the almighty Blizzard itself: diabloiii.com.es (click to see) is the name that will probably send all the RPG fans into rapture. Just to be sure, for those who don't understand the i's: no, "iii" does not mean that Diablo will get a Wii port, it's III, like 3, like Diablo 3, you get it?

Maybe this is not enough proof for you (and it shouldn't be, since it has that ".es" in the name), so we have the real big thing. Check the image to the top left of the screen and, if you don't believe your eyes, check the official web site: Indeed, there is a new forum there, called Diablo III. We can hardly wait for it to get filled with as many and as official messages as possible.

And if that forum doesn't mean a thing to you, then you should know two things:

1. Something similar happened a few months before Starcraft II was officially announced, which means that an official forum kind of means: "Yes, this will happen, we'll say it, but first we want to see everybody go crazy" 2. The website that is the "home" of the screenshot you are probably still looking at can't do anything regarding its content without getting Blizzard's authorization first. So, again, this could be translated: "Yes, this will happen etc".

Don't know about you, but I'm ready to celebrate. Now... any predictions about the game?
