[wraggster]

Blizzard announced today that Diablo 3 has finally gotten a release date: May 15th (http://us.blizzard.com/en-us/company/press/pressreleases.html?id=4606414). "After many years of hard work by our development team and months of beta testing by hundreds of thousands of dedicated players around the world, we’re now in the homestretch," said Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime. This comes after significant changes to the skill and rune systems (http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/4475014/Skill_and_Rune_Changes-2_18_2012#blog) in the beta, and news that the PvP system would be delayed (http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/4574895/Diablo_III_PvP_Update-3_9_2012#blog) so that they could focus on finishing the campaign. The game will be available for Windows and Macs, either via a DVD or as a direct download through Battle.net. For those interested, a skill calculator is available (http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/barbarian) to get a feel for what different abilities do, and many of the skills have videos showing how they work (http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/4612390/In-Development_%E2%80%93_Class_Skill_Videos_Continued-3_13_2012#blog).
