No, no, Diablo III isn’t out yet.  In the meantime, however, try the game Torchlight.  In fact, it’s an dungeon crawl RPG created by some of the same folks who worked on Diablo, Fate, and the never released Mythos.  Just hop on down to the Torchlight website and download your two-hour trial for free!  If you like it, it’s only twenty bucks for unlimited use.

August 23rd is just around the corner and as expected, the rumor mills and newswires are going cah-razay!  Here is a small summary of whats going around the net for Blizzcon.

Now, on to the news and rumors.

Blizzcon 2009 website is finally launched.  August is getting closer and all you Blizzard fans are feeling that tingle in your pants.  But many of you are thinking, “But, will I even get a chance to buy a ticket?”  Yes, last year’s ticket sales system was a joke.  It was worse than trying to get a Bag of Crap from Woot.com. F5 keys around the world were crying in agony from the constant browser refreshes on the ticket sales page. Well, Blizzard has announce how they will be selling these hard to get tickets this year. More on that after the break.
