A lot of people have already pre-purchased Diablo III. Blizzard said the game set a new, all-time preorder record for the company.

During an earnings call this afternoon, CEO Mike Morhaime stated that 2 million people total signed up for the Diablo III beta, which includes numbers from the open beta a few weeks ago. "Our players are clearly excited about Diablo III as it's already set a Blizzard record for preorders, including those who signed up for the annual pass.”

Diablo III launches next Tuesday, May 15.

Haha, makes the statements from an analyst recently about "selling 3.5 million this year" a tad bit silly...

''Our players are clearly excited about Diablo III'' Really? you don't say! blizz guy, after 978 years of wait, how could we be exited for it? i don't get it... ¬¬

After all this time I wonder if I'll still find the game play addictive, Torchlight didn't keep my interest very long.
I'll get a console version if it has offline multiplayer.

I had my doubts too but I cave in and pre-order.

and i haven't even pre ordered mine yet

like i said few days ago, it's "only" the german amazon and amazon sales didn't indicate a lot in the past but if a game is half a year on place one in game charts BEFORE release, it can't be so bad^^
