Musings from the Mayor of the Internet

Diablo 3 announced; your grandmother surprised

Blizzard has officially announced Diablo 3 as of the Worldwide Invitational, which should come as a surprise to nobody at all. Fortunately for the exclamation-point industry, lots of people the internet over appear to have failed to make the simple connection in advance.

It’s mathematically provable that, in this dispensation, Blizzard + New Game == Diablo 3. How? We already know there’s a new Warcraft game in development (WoW: Wrath of the Lich King), and we already know there’s a new Starcraft game in development (Starcraft 2). Subtract those from the whole list of currently-active Blizzard franchises and you’re left with Diablo 3.

Maybe all those people had their money on a new Lost Vikings game. Shit, I’d buy it. Lost Vikings rocked the SNES.
