Played it. Not bad. It ain't difficult to be better than Halo. I've got iPhone shoot-em ups I'd rate along with the Halo series. When the new FF comes out, I'm getting it on PS3 rather than 360 just so I have another game on the new console.

So I've read,
But with SC2 coming out soon (already in closed beta testing) D3 will be out after SC2.

Final Fantasy 13 will be out on Tuesday. I have my pre-ordered copy up and ready to go.
I can live with doubt, and uncertainty, and not knowing. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. [...] I don’t feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it really is, as far as I can tell, possibly. It doesn’t frighten me. - Richard Feynman

I can't be bothered using my brain, what are D3 and SC2?
We have no great war, no great depression.
Our great war is a spiritual war.
Our great depression is our lives.

Both Blizzard games, which is why there release dates will be dependent on each other.

This.
Diablo and Starcraft are both amazing, if outdated now.
Keep an eye out for both the new ones if you like either genre (Diablo is an RPG and Starcraft an RTS)

Have you heard of Mario? Or Sonic?
Those were amazing games. Personally, I'm looking forward to a new Starcraft more than a new Diablo.

There's also a talk through the first 25 mins with one of the makers of the game on that same site which I'm watching now.
I want. I want. I want. I want.
I want this game more than a single woman in her thirties wants a baby.
