At the 2008 Blizzard Worldwide Invitational they announced Diablo 3. On a lot of Blizzard.com, a splash screen was appearing and fueling speculation of what would be announced. It was thought to be about Starcraft 2, some WoW update, or about Diablo 3, and luckily it was the latter.
I loved Diablo, played it for hours on end. I never really got into Diablo II, but I think that was more because I was busy with other stuff when it came out, but that was like 7 years ago, so I don't really remember what. Unfortunately it's PC (and Mac) only, and I doubt my computer will have the specs to play it. Well, maybe I'll have to upgrade for it.
These screenshot bits are from the Blizzard site. There is also an FAQ over there. Allow me to summarize:
Q: What will be the b--
A: We will announce that at a later date.
Yeah, they're not telling us much. They've announced two out of five character classes. One is the Barbarian, a returning class, and the other is a new one, the Witch Doctor. It hasn't been announced yet, but I was let in on a secret. Whenever you play as the Witch Doctor, you'll have a special theme song playing in the background. Some people may not like this, but I will be playing as nothing but the Witch Doctor for this very reason.
Head over to Joystiq if you want more information than I've given you here.
Godspeed.
