Diablo 3 Not At E3

diablo3.jpgYesterday, we crossed our legs so high up that we squealed, then reported that the long-awaited Diablo 3 may make a showing at the Blizzard E3 booth. Our evidence was an advertisement for IGN Insider, claiming that Diablo 3 would be part of their special E3 content. Even at the time, we knew getting excited over the rather spurious proof was directly comparable to proposing marriage after a hot girl accidentally rubs up against you in a crowded elevator. Still, we hoped, we prayed, we tried to call in favors from Jay Cee, M-Dawg and the entire million-plus pantheon of hardcore Hindu deities. If there's one game we want announced at E3, it's Diablo 3.

All for naught, apparently — IGN has admitted that Diablo 3's placement in their IGN Insider ad was an overzealous mistake. And it doesn't even look like there's a chance of them being accidentally right, since a Blizzard representative told them that they are focusing all their E3 presence on promotion of the upcoming WoW expansion pack, The Burning Crusade.

Everyone in unison now! $#!&#* !
