Many on the Diablofans forums were wondering the same thing, they found 1 shop in Sweden that sold them, but they wanted an arm and a leg for them.

Damn sweeds, put aside a bunch of copies just so they could charge 3 times the original price 1 week before release.

Or you could join the Charity Raffle on Diablofans and hope you get lucky (2 CE copies are being given away), and no, this isn't a scam.

Still can't work out if i should buy this game or not. There doesn't seem to be many videos explaining the point in the game (other than the loot) I may just take the plunge, it's only £30 on amazon.

How anyone could not know the Diablo Series is beyond me
Hell wages war on your world.
You choose 1 of 5 unique characters with dozens of different moves, unique dialogue, dedicated items etc. etc. and send every last stinking demon/zombie/skelleton back to hell.
There's a ton of sidequests.
There are NPCs to trade with or talk to.
There are EPIC cutscenes.
There will me millions of people online right from the start (Amazon UK already limited D3 to 2 copies per customer).

You won't regret your purchase BBK, for alot of people D3 is the game of the decade.

Yes i'm slightly hyped

I played the Beta, completed the Fallen Star Quest using every character

Witch Doctor seemed to be the most powerful

The clock is ticking, and I am as excited as a 12 year old girl who is about to meet Justin Bieber.

Yeah you'd expect people to that for something which is going to be so much in demand

I will probably end up being him, given my affinity for the D2 Necromancer.

I hope they bring back a pure Necro class though, maybe as DLC or in an expansion.

[Beast of Bourbon]

I'll make a sorc... it was a good choice for the first char in D2 not too dependent on good items (like melee chars).

[Nuvian]

I have decided on Barb for my first playthrough, my first Diablo playthrough i play a warrior, in Diablo 2 it was Barb, so its only fitting i continue this tradition.

5 days left!!!

Which Beta patch did you play? When i started the beta in november the witch doctor was so overpowered it was silly. The patch after that they nerfed him so bad he became the weakest class. I didnt play him after that and would like to know if they balanced him out for launch.

Playing a Demon Hunter as my main and making a Wizard alt.
In Diablo I i played the Warrior.

[Cybertox]

I was kinda disappointed with the graphics in the beta but i will still get this game. However at the moment, i dont know if i can afford another game.

Thanks for sharing!

Seems people who were in the closed beta get something special.

In celebration of a successful beta test, all players who were invited to participate in the Diablo III closed beta will receive the commemorative Feat of Strength, "One of the Chosen." For eligible players, this feat will appear automatically in the Feat of Strength list after logging in for the first time as well as unlock a unique sigil that can be used on character banners.

In order to be eligible for "One of the Chosen," you must have had a Diablo III closed beta license attached to your Battle.net account (it isn't necessary to have downloaded or logged into the beta itself). Please note that players who participated only in the Open Beta Weekend, but were not invited to the closed beta, will not receive this Feat of Strength.

Thank you once again to all of our beta participants. We look forward to seeing you in Sanctuary!

They didn't specify any reasons? That's odd.

I was well annoyed I phoned them up and 2 people who answered where useless, I tried a 3rd time and a woman came on and sorted it out in 5 mins. Because the pre order 4 years ago I did was £25 and the game now is £33 she just added £8 of Game vouchers to my game card and I just did a new pre-order. I bought Fable 3 for PC today and got another £2.50 off so I'm getting Diablo 3 for £21.49.

The woman was really friendly shame the 2 people before wasn't

[Nuvian]

I'm glad it worked out

4 days and 2 hours left!

[Beast of Bourbon]

Tried to order from amazon.uk today but it's sold out atm
I know i could just buy the german version and download the english gameclient but i want the english disc version...

Damn i hope they'll get more over the weekend so i can still get it.

P.S. the download via battlenet costs 5 bucks more then the disc copy... laughable.

I found this and thought you guys would like to see it.
Looks like it confirms that rings and amulets can be gem socketed.
