The barbarians fulfilled their purpose with unwavering determination for centuries, dwelling in a pristine state of isolation. Anything that could lead toward distraction or weakness was pushed aside, including politics, magic, trade, and machinery. Tribes patrolling Mount Arreat brooked no intrusion from outsiders, without question or parley. It was a pure existence, a life committed to the sword, axe, spear, shield, and duty above all else.

 

Venture on to the Gathering of Heroes page on our Diablo III launch site to read barbarian lore, watch a new class video, learn about their skills, resources, armor, and weapons, and read an exclusive short story titled "Wayfarer."

Watch this Biggles,

and here is more info.

 

Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of Diablo III are inching toward reality. With Blizzard filling out its development team, the company has been talking about its ambitions for the project.

 

The PC version of the game is set to release early in 2012. A console version has been long touted, but never officially announced. But the company has been hiring for just such a project, with Joshua Mosquiera, former creative director at Ubisoft, taking the lead.

 

In an interview with Game Informer magazine, Diablo III director Jay Wilson said, "We don't want to port it. We want to build it for console. There's a key difference. Certainly, a lot of things get brought over, but a port is trying to take a PC game and graft it onto a console.

 

 

 

 

"Our goal is to make a game that feels like it's natively made made for a console. If we make it, we want it to feel like a Blizzard game and that we built it for that platform from the ground up."

 

He added, "We are still in active exploring mode. We haven't officially announced a product. We like our product announcements to be a big deal. We haven't been as secretive about this one because our biggest barrier is actually getting a console team."
