    From Blizzard's site:
    TECHNICAL ASPECTS

    What engine is Diablo III running on? What graphical enhancements are included?
    Diablo III runs on a custom 3D game engine for rendering full-3D characters and environments. The 3D game engine not only simulates advanced animation sequences and sound effects, but also uses a custom physics engine that allows for realistic object dynamics and cloth simulation.

    What are the system requirements for Diablo III?
    We'll announce specific system requirements at a later date.

    RELEASE PLANS
    When will Diablo III be released?
    It's too early to estimate Diablo III's release date. As with all Blizzard Entertainment games, our goal is to create a game that is as fun, balanced, and polished as possible. We intend to take as much time developing Diablo III as is necessary to ensure the game meets our own high expectations and those of our players.

    I still have Diablo 1 or 2 or both at home.

    Watched the cinematic trailer, awesome graphics and watching the video game play now.

    I have no doubt, my PC won't be able to play this game :comp1:

    Heck I still Morrowind in the box...

    I played Diablo 2 until I was so sick of it I had to stop. It was addicting.

    the physics remind me a bit of the old bungie "myth" games.

    but this thing looks absolutely amazing. blizzard know how to make good games.

    i just hope like hell they don't push the graphics too far and limit the multiplayer to 4 to keep things under control. i doubt they would, tho, because there's gonna be a ton of stuff on screen so a four players vs eight players probably won't make much difference.

    d2 was great. i tried to bust it out at our last lan party to shake things up, but everybody was like "wtf? 800x600 -- this thing come out in the 70's or something?"
