Not sure if this was "Sports and Games" worthy without much content besides a picture, so I'll post it here!

Not confirmed obviously, but that's some pretty damn good art. Close to april fool's day >.<

I don't think it is real, I think blizzard is going to try to stray away from the darker demonic stuff on the box art to pull in more of the WoW crowd that isn't as familiar with the older blizzard games.

Diii.net confirmed this was a fake.

From their website:

Update: That didn’t last long. It’s WoW fan art. The piece depicts Sargeras, the creator and leader of the Burning Legion. (Which explains why this one wasn’t already in our fanart gallery.) The piece is by Pepperwolf. Thanks to HolyKnight for remembering where he’d seen it before.

face is too small, looks disconnected from the artwork as a whole. hopefully they change that.

also, i don't think it looks evil enough to be Diablo-worthy, eyes need to either be bright white or bright red. and i hope that's not supposed to be the new incarnation of diablo. the old one looked like godzilla and was fucking awesome/badass/scary to fight. the design on this one looks like a copy-paste from every other game. they hopefully will change it to make diablo stand out more from other games.

the quality of the artwork though.. is goooood!

edit: dammit, well props to whoever made it. well fucking done

Doesn't this break the blizzard tradition of having a neck-up portrait of a key character as box art? Correct my if I'm wrong...

You are going to be in for a surprise...big shoulder pads are a staple in Blizz games...

SC1 D2 WC3 WoW SC2 and now....you guessed it D3. In D3 they aren't even symmetrical anymore, you'll have a huge shouldpad on one with something puny on the other. eg. the demon hunter.

how is Diablo PvP? can you just kill everyone or is it only allowed in certain places?

It is a fake.

Apparently, it's a fan-art of Sageras from WoW.

In Diablo 2, you could toggle being hostile against any player in the game with you, and then anytime you meet outside of a town you can kill each other. This basically only happens in dueling games, where everyone fights in the area right outside the Act I town. From what I can tell, in Diablo 3 the PvP is going to be more like WoW PvP, with preset arenas and whatnot. http://us.blizzard.com/diablo3/world/systems/pvp.xml

Quote from the link above: "When you participate in ranked games (fights that pit two opposing teams of players against each other in 'best of' matches), you'll earn points for advancement based on kills, accomplished objectives, wins, and other factors. Points lead to multiplayer achievements, titles, and more. Our system is focused on encouraging furious combat and multiplayer progression, not stringent competitive rankings, so you'll earn points after every match and Battle.net matchmaking will pit you against similarly skilled opponents."

Huh. Now doesn't THAT sound familiar. Sigh.

Pretty cool, looks like Diablo got hit by a fireball from behind though, with the relatively dark face overpowered by the fire from behind

Thats how business works. Capitalism is mass production for the masses. If what you like doesnt fit with that of the masses.. you are somewhat limited in your consumption choices.
Aah thats the stuff..

Someone said they'd doubt D3 would outsell SC2.

I don't. I'm sure of it and honestly - it would be PERFECT for consoles. The Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance games are some of the most fun i've ever had with friends on consoles and that concept hasn't even been tried with the current generations implementations of network play (Live!, PSN). It easily has the potential to reach CoD-like figures worldwide.
