Diablo II 1.12a Patch

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

With the recent Diablo III announcement, Blizzard is trying to stir up the Diablo community once again. They’ve wiped clean the Diablo II ladder, and a new race has begun for level 99. It’s cool to see a game that’s over 8 years old still holding the interest in players.

Additionally, patch 1.12a was released on Monday which allows players to play the game without the need to have the CD in the disk drive. In addition to the patch, you’ll need to copy the ‘.MPQ’ files to your hard drive.

You can obtain the patch by logging into Battle.net or from Blizzard’s support page.

Diablo III

Saturday, June 28th, 2008

The opening ceremony for Blizzard’s WWI is now over. The big announcement was as expected, and as I posted earlier, Diablo III. Got to see a bit of it watching the live stream, but it kept cutting out on me, so I missed a lot. :(

Check out WoWInsider, as I’m sure they’ll keep posting news and other information from the event. I’d also expect to see either diablo3.com to go live over the next few days…

If you haven’t seen it already, the splash screen that Blizzard has been teasing us with over the last several days has also been updated. “And the heavens shall tremble.” I am very excited for this game, and hope it’s not to far away from a release.

And don’t forget to Digg the release!
