IGN: Diablo 3 "Not at E3"

Yesterday, the internet rumor mill was on full-throttle after "Diablo 3" showed up as part of an IGN E3 promotional ad. Today, IGN clears the air regarding the intensely anticipated game.

Blizzard is saving "any announcements they may or may not have" concerning Diablo 3 " for an unnamed "later date." Okay...

That's according to an IGN story that seeks to clarify a "production error" that made references to Diablo 3 pop up in an E3 promotional ad. For the record, Blizzard has never even acknowledged that Diablo 3 is in even in production, despite the fact that Diablo and Diablo II are among the most popular PC games of all time.

The IGN retraction reads, in part, that "[yesterday's] IGN Insider promo mistakenly implied that the game would be part of the coverage offered at next week's convention....Blizzard has no plans to show Diablo 3 at the conference, as they had told IGN editorial in the past. The developer is focusing all of their energy towards promotion of the first World of Warcraft expansion [The Burning Crusade]."

So that settles that. Or does it???
