Evil Is Back, and It Didn’t Phone Ahead to Let People Know It Was Coming
So Diablo III had a new TV ad this weekend, and everyone was very excited about it. It’s got fire and demons and things exploding and what is possibly an angelic being with a bigass sword, and then a girl with short hair screaming about how there’s fire and demons and things exploding and whatnot. In related news, I finally finished all the Dragon Age: Origins DLC a couple weeks ago, so I look forward to playing Diablo III in about three years or so. (Via Kotaku)
