Diablo III: The Force Unleashed

Some of the first excitement in a long while has finally been released about Diablo 3. At Blizzcon 2008, they revealed the next class after the Witch Doctor (previously the Necromancer) and the Barbarian (previously the Barbarian). The Wizard debuted with a pretty cool trailer and got me super-psyched.

This Sorceress replacement doesn't look like a typical Diablo character because of the mysterious, magic orb in her hand; there's just something very different about it. Then you see the powers & spell mechanics arise, and it already feels really good to me.

Now if only they'd tell me it's coming out Spring 2009...
