Diablo 2 made me sleepy very boring

I agree. I think Diablo is lame. WoW is a much better game. Blizzard is benefitting greatly from this MMO so why refer back to the 2D RPGs again?

Diablo + WoW = a decent game. Probably something to consider as long as it is 3D and not that ****ty one angle, helicopter camera view.

I think the announcement of a new Diablo game will confirm that StarCraft 2's development is nearing completion. Perhaps Blizzard has already begun the development of Diablo 3, but I don't know. So far the hidden clues hint to the announcement of a Diablo related game.

Well when they announced Starcraft 2, they were considerably far as is when it was shown at Blizzcon. I wouldn't doubt that they've almost got it done. Most game sites are estimating the fall, but you know Blizz and they're release dates / Set backs. The Blizzard North team had just begun working on D3 before the mob of them quit/laid off, whatever happened over there, so I have a hard time believing they've got a lot, but I'm sure they've started. They've gotta show us something this weekend :)

I don't get it, why would they try to steal any of WoWs thunder?

I mean, since they saw how great MMOs can be I doubt they are going to make another non-MMO alongside SC2.

It has to be, unless they are going back to... Old school.

Cause Blizzard has class. They said themselves, they aren't one of those companies that just produce MMO's. All 3 of their titles are special in their own way, so it's not really going to steal any thunder from WoW. Even if it does, Blizzard doesn't lose anything, it's competing with itself. Money's flowing in no matter what. Diablo 2, back in the day was the equivalent of what WoW is today, back then. What I'm saying is, the amount of people in 2001 that played Diablo 2 was probably as remarkable as the 9.5+million on WoW today.

The fact that that Blizzard have been able to be as successful for as long as they have with 3 IPs; Diablo, Starcraft, and Warcraft...quite amazing if you ask me. And more amazing is that there have only been 1 Diablo sequel and 3 Warcraft sequels...usually most companies are on their 5th game in the series ;)

So nobody knows what the insignia on the bottom right means or the new one at the top?

The Protoss symbol looks "filled in" now and those eyes just make me think of Protoss.

Edit: Browsed around and found that the day 4 symbol could represent the Arcane Sanctum from WC III (Which is what I thought but wasn't sure.) And the new one today.. I dunno... it makes me think of that battery shield building from SC.

damn I was hoping for a Diablo III, but I saw the new image and protoss came straight to mind. Seems this image is definitely indicating a starcraft/wotlk rather than diablo. Still would love to be wrong but would hate to be disappointed yet again. Damn your mind games blizzard!

I agree, but I still have hope for Diablo III due to the presence of the runes, as I can't remember any of the other games having those kind of runes.

It's still going to be D3. I don't know how to explain, but luckily you will see tomorrow, well at least hear. One reason I think it's going to be Diablo 3 is because Diabloii.net, one of the most popular Diablo fansites, announced that they had an inside source and knew it would be Diablo 3. If they lie about it, they're publicity as a reliable source goes right down the drain. They wouldn't risk that if they didn't have the utmost positivity. For those of you who think it's a Protoss, good guess, but this is Blizzard here. When Haven't they tried to trick us at a game release, or anything other spectacular they've done? Blizzard are notorious for making you think hard, get a headache, and asking for more. Just look at diablofans.com for goodness sake, they've got 100's of pages for each daily image concluding what they consider are their ideas.

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      The 2TB Samsung 990 PRO NVMe SSD hits lowest price in over three months by Sayan Sen Yesterday, we covered a really good deal wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe PCIe Gen4 SSD for a low price of just $400 with a special discount coupon. That's just $100 per TB, making it a very good offer during these hard times. The deal is still live, so you can check it out in its dedicated article here if you do not want to miss out. Meanwhile, if you don't have that kind of budget but still wish to buy an SSD for a good price, the 2TB variant of the TeamGroup SSD at $280 its lowest price in over three months. Meanwhile, those seeking 2TB but faster performance can check out Samsung's 990 PRO, which has hit the lowest price also in the last quarter or so, as it's on sale for $370 (purchase links under the specs table down below). Thus, you want a faster drive, get the 990 Pro, or you want more capacity, grab the TeamGroup 4TB linked in the first para. The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $500. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more.

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By FloatingFatMan · Posted

      And here goes the "Won't someone think of the children" brigade. Get stuffed mate. This has NOTHING to do with making the internet safe. It's about tracking adults, spying on your online activity, and sending the boys around when they don't like something you post. Also, again, parliament have voted TWICE against this, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. THAT is anti-democratic bullsh**. They will use this law to track you, they will use this law to control you, and they will use this law to punish you if they don't like what you do, even if it's legal. And your data? Say bye bye to that. It'll be on the darkweb in weeks. I'm not some rando online. I've been an IT professional for 40 years, many of it in security. I know exactly what this means and what will happen to your data. I do not consent and I will not comply.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126, KB5093998 bugging out Office apps but it may not be Microsoft's fault

      By sphbecker · Posted

      "...but it may not be Microsoft's fault" seems like a reasonable way to tease what is going on without leaving the user with a false impression that an update is the problem. A title isn't a summery, it is meant to entice the user to read the article. It should not contain a misleading premise; which this title does not. You could maybe complain that the first paragraph should have included that detail. The writing style popularized over 100 years ago in newspapers will cover the most important information as soon as possible with details and nuance added later; the idea being that with each new paragraph you have less of the reader's focus.
    • Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features by Fiza Ali Samsung is bringing its Galaxy XR headset to the UK several months after the device made its debut as the first headset built on Google's Android XR platform. The headset was first teased in late 2024 alongside Google's introduction of Android XR before making its commercial debut in 2025. Developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, Galaxy XR combines mixed reality experiences with Gemini-powered AI features, allowing users to interact with digital content using voice, gestures, and visual inputs. While the hardware itself remains largely unchanged from the version Samsung unveiled last year, the company is using the UK launch to spotlight several software enhancements that have arrived through recent updates. Among the most notable additions is deeper integration with Google's ecosystem. Galaxy XR users can explore destinations through Google Maps' Immersive View, receiving AI-powered recommendations and contextual information from Gemini while navigating virtual environments. Furthermore, entertainment experiences have also expanded; users can watch 180-degree and 360-degree videos on YouTube, browse spatial content converted into 3D, and ask Gemini questions about on-screen content without interrupting playback. Samsung is also highlighting mixed-reality features such as Circle to Search, which allows users to identify real-world objects through hand gestures while using the headset's video pass-through mode. Another feature automatically converts photos and videos into spatial 3D experiences. Moreover, the headset now also supports Android Enterprise, allowing organisations to manage deployments using existing Android management tools. Annika Bizon, Vice President, Product and Marketing, Mobile Experience, Samsung UK & Ireland, talked about the device, stating: The headset is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform and features dual 4K Micro-OLED displays. The tech giant says that users can expect up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Samsung also confirmed that Galaxy XR will continue receiving software and security updates as the company works alongside Google and Qualcomm to expand the Android XR ecosystem. Galaxy XR is now available for pre-order and will go on sale on 8 July. Customers interested in trying the headset before launch can visit Samsung KX in London and selected Samsung Experience Stores from 17 June. Finally, the company will also host a livestream on 19 June showcasing the headset's capabilities and answering questions from prospective customers.
