As for Diablo III: Blizzard has not announced a release date for Diablo III at this time
关于Diablo III:暴雪目前没有公布任何关于D3发售日期的消息
谣言如下:
This one is pretty lame, but since it’s all over gaming sites, we might as well point it out as well. Kaputnik.com, a minor and unstaffed gaming site has posted an item claiming the Diablo III Beta will begin September 11, 2009, and the game will be released Christmas Eve, December 24, 2009. They even list some invented system requirements. The quote:

Needless to say, this is not anything official from Blizzard. It’s not even a very good fake rumor, as far as fake rumors go. As everyone knows by now, Blizzard never reveals beta test or release dates until shortly before they arrive. They’ve not even given dates for Starcraft 2 yet, and it’s well ahead of Diablo III in the development process. So of course they’ve said nothing about Diablo III’s release other than their usual “when it’s done.” There’s no way they’ve even got an internal date that’s more specific than a quarter or half year, since the time required for game development and beta testing varies so much from game to game. The same goes for system requirements, since those evolve during a project, and are largely based on what sort of system the average user can be expected to obtain.
