PS3 version of Diablo III not likely

Today in Paris at the Blizzard World Invitational, Blizzard Entertainment revealed much anticipated RPG, Diablo III. With past rumors suggesting that Blizzard was developing for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, PSU.com contacted Blizzard Entertainment to see if Diablo III would see light of day on console platforms.

"Yes, this is PC/Mac," said the Blizzard Representative. "As with all of Blizzard Entertainment's recent releases, Diablo III will ship for both Windows and Mac simultaneously."



So as of right now, PlayStation 3 gamers will have to find something else to satisfy their dungeon RPG hungers. Stay tuned to PSU.com for more information.

    err? to me it sounds more like its just saying that it will come to PC and MAC at the same time, not saying there will be no console version, blizzard are whores, there will be atleast a 360 version.

    We contacted Blizzard about a rumor PSU heard....that Blizzard currently has Xbox 360 and PS3 dev kits, and they responded stating

     

    "We can't comment on rumors and speculation."

    PC only? Why?
    I doubt I'll get Diablo III now.
    I can't be bothered to go back to PC.

    shouldn't this be titled "console version not likely"?  When I first saw it, it gave me the impression that it was going to the 360 but not PS3, which I know will get some people going.

     Well, all they did was a "no comment" on console porting, basically.  If this sells tons, I could see them making a port.  Frankly though, it would be best suited for the PS3 due to mouse and keyboard support.  If they did that, they wouldn't need to change much and re-engineer things for console controllers.  Let's hope so!

    no one would buy it for ps3 anyway. Atleast not me. That's one of the games that's meant to be played on pc :p

     I don't really care.  I loved Diablo II, but that was the only reason I actually played on my computer.  That and Starcraft.  PS3 is still the greatest.

    did all of you people forget the first diablo was on playstation so don't say it doesn't belong cause that's where it originally started.
