When Blizzard isn't taking its sweet time developing Diablo III and other assorted, much-loved games, it's garnering Facebook attention by offering up new screenshots and art.
For every 25,000 "Likes" the Diablo III page gets -- starting at 550,000 and continuing to 1 million -- the studio will put out new eye candy for us to gaze upon. Brilliant idea. Considering we have months and months to accomplish this, I'm not worried.
Maybe for every 1,000 "Likes" we get on the Destructoid Facebook page, we can have a staff member go against the norm. Samit making grammatical errors on purpose, Maurice playing through an RPG without "stimulants," Holmes destroying innocent Nintendo consoles with a baseball bat, etc.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

And in case you didn't realize, activison-blizzard is not the same thing as plain old blizzard. Get your shit straight before you go comparing bears to corporate filth.
There's a strict difference between showing screen shots for games that people want play, as blizzard is doing, and showing screen shots of games you plan to cut content from and effectively turn into watered down shit, a la lionhead and Peter Molyneux.
That would seem to make sense for a momma grizzly bear - they probably breast feed grizzly bears all the time. My question is: why do you hate momma grizzly bears? And why only grizzly bears? Would you have the same qualms if it were a polar bear doing the breast feeding?
And dont you dare say "Sarah Palin".
You can hate her all you want but that bitch is NOT A BEAR.
I see no bunnies at all!!
Why couldn't they think of another way to promote screenshots and artwork? how about their website?
