Various gamers report increased trademark activity at Blizzard. The trademarks include names from the WOW expansion like the Darkmoon Faire.

I’m interested in anything having to do with Diablo 3 and I wasn’t dissapointed:

Diablo is trademarked as

ENTERTAINMENT SERVICES, NAMELY, PROVIDING ON-LINE COMPUTER AND VIDEO GAMES, ON-LINE PUBLICATIONS IN THE FIELD OF TIPS AND STRATEGIES FOR COMPUTER GAMES; ARRANGING AND CONDUCTING COMPUTER GAME COMPETITIONS; ENTERTAINMENT IN THE NATURE OF AN ONGOING TELEVISION PROGRAM IN THE FIELD OF CHARACTERS AND PLOTS BASED ON A VIDEO GAME; AND PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION OF MOTION PICTURES

I’m not sure Blizzard plans to make a Diablo movie just yet but obviously they want to keep their options open, yup, i would see it so many times xD

Them owning the trademark means absolutely nothing. They probably own the trademark to Diablo + any number thereafter.

there would be no point to TM something like that, if they have no further point of having it, it would be a waste, i also have a quote somewhere, i lost it -.-, of a blizz rep saying they would be releasing something for all the diablo fans soon, (was said at last blizz con). It could be anything, you never know, but makes you wonder, blizzard can work wonders ^^

If you call WoW a wonder...yikes

Edit: Scratch that, found the article:

Quote

Blizzard COO Paul Sims: "As you probably already know, there is no doubt that we will continue the StarCraft and Diablo franchise"

Quote

Blizzard VP Itzik Ben Bassat: " We cannot wait to be here in a few years, or however long it will be" to announce Diablo 3. "It's won't be a decade"

Not looking bright.

lol not wow so much as Diablo 2...it should be one of the Wonders of the World xD

and i had a quote from a reporter, i don't know if it was true, sometimes they can exaggerate things, but i'd believe it over the public things people hear

WoW isn't going anywhere anytime soon. they currently have 8 million subscribers (many times more than the next MMORPG) which comes to a revenue of $120 million per month; $1.44 billion per year if it keeps up. That's why it won't be a while until its released, until WoW's subscribers get bored and have nothing left to do, and begin to cancel subscriptions, then we might see Diablo 3 or Starcraft 2. I predict 5-7 years until they actually release the game, and officially announce the game 18 months beforehand.
