Always amusing to see the oh-so-superior PC guys throwing their little internet tantrums. I imagine they'll be sulking for the rest of the day now :)
I know some PC players don't want this on consoles. But I would say, keep in mind how this may benefit you down the road. On consoles, this would mean more sales and profits. This in turn, can help ensure continual and importantly maybe even more, high quality support / expansions / patches for many years.
By the way if you like, the CE is available for pre-order.

Wait, there is a project manager for a console build and people are upset that this article states that it's coming to consoles? Regardless of team size, Blizzard is clearly *actively* porting the game. It *is* being worked on, regardless of confirmation. Why are any of you bitching? If, for some reason, it doesn't come out, then that means the port was canceled, but it doesn't mean that it was never coming.
Also, if there were interoperability between console/PC version so that you could access your Battle.net account's characters on both, I'd definitely buy both versions!

In some ways I like what they're doing with this game, in other ways I really don't. What was fun about Diablo 2 (other than CLICKCLICKCLICKCLICK) was that the game would punish you for foolishness, especially if you played Hardcore mode (like a man), sure add an easier accessible difficulty for those who prefer it gently, but what about people who want a challenge? (Or at least that's how it sounds from that guy's words)
TL;DR: PUNISH ME, VIDEOGAEMS! HARDER! HARDER!

Oh wow, if it's coming to consoles that means I can finally be interested. Really enjoyed Diablo on PSX back in the day (still have it, in fact), and I don't game on PC generally, so this is good news if true.
Id be down with a console version. At least then i could play it without the internet's Muahahaha.
Be ironic though, the thing without portability is free to play offline. The one with portability, nope stuff ya.

@Terrasmith.
No offence, but after seeing what EA has done to Dragon Age for DA2. or what happened to crysis. What 2k is doing to XCOM. And the penny pinching franchise that has come from CoD and it's map packs(i remember when that stuff was paid for by nvidia). Or id with Rage or the two weapon system that has become so prevalent because it's easier to handle with a controller
You'd forgive me if i don't see multiplatform as an inherently positive advantage. Maybe i'm just a pessimist, but given the recent track records with companies making the jump or adjusting for the console audience it doesn't fill me with hope.
Not to mention the fact that if it wasn't all locked down and preventing mods and the like. We would have no need for blizzard to keep selling us expansion's down the track.

I don't care what the game can be played on, I'm just pissed that it's only 4 players and doesn't even look as fun as Torchlight.
Wow!! Wonderful news. With the PS3 supporting keyboard and mouse, it has the potential to be the best console version!
@Agent47 I hope they ban your ass you sexist asshole.If you read any of tara's articles,seen her on dtoid show or listen to what she says on Dtoid it would be obvious to even an idiot like you that she does indeed know what she is talking about and probably know's alot more than you ever will you 12 year old prick.
The PC gaming community is furious over Blizzard's recent move. Enthusiasts are posting away on the forums with the caps lock key down. Stand by for more bitching and whining.
lol had to laugh when i saw the word prick used in such anger, good retort!
As a console gamer i was planning on upgrading my clapped out pc specifically for this game, now there is a hint of it coming to xbox (hopefully) i wont bother. My personal situation means the xbox is the better platform for games so I'm a happy bunny right now.
cheers for the heads up

@Jimmyx:
I don't think anyone will actually squirm seeing that it's coming to consoles, Blizzard is a PC developer and will never forsake the PC platform and give us shitty ports, so who cares you get the inferior version. I actually like it when the roles are reversed for once....

MMM.... DRM-free (I'm hoping) Diablo 3 on a big screen. That is delicious. Heh, maybe that's where some of the elitist PC rage comes from, "Wait... they get to play this whenever they want? ON A COUCH!?" Regardless, if this pans out I'm so buying it. I rue, but stand behind, my decision to not buy it on PC so this works wonders. Oh, and ban that sexist (Agent47) prig: I can't trust anyone who wouldn't want a gorgeous being of the opposite (or same, no judging) sex playing a game you enjoy alongside you.
Sounds great to me. I loved D and D2 for the PC, but I'm not thrilled about needing to buy a new laptop just to play the one game I am interested in for PC. Kudos Blizzard. Also, for all the butt-hurt PC people, remember 2 things: 1. You won't buy it for the console anyway so what do you care? and 2. This is Blizzard, they won't release a half assed crappy port that immediately gets a 35 on Metacritic.
