Can't wait for this game. 2055 can't come soon enough.

Last class announced at Blizzcon. Demon Hunter.

I wonder if we're going to continue the Diablo trend of class determining your gender.

No. As I have actually played the game last year at Blizzcon, each class can be both male and female. Just not at the same time. Some of the class designs weren't finished then, so we could only play male monk and female wizard, but both the witchdoctor and barbarian had male and female choices.

We’re exploring a Diablo-related concept for consoles and are currently looking to fill a few senior console-related positions on the Diablo III team. As we’ve said in the past, with proper care the gameplay could suit the console platform, and we’re interested in seeing what talent out there might be interested in such a project. If you’re passionate about all things Diablo and have the requisite skill and experience, then head over to our jobs site to check out the positions and apply.

Please note that this is not an announcement of a console title. We are first and foremost developing Diablo III for Windows and Mac PCs and don’t intend to allow any possibility of a console interpretation to delay or affect the release of the game.

Yuck. Console controls just don't work for Blizzard style games.

When is this anticipated?

First off, it should be re-iterated that each player can now only have seven skills at their disposal. While there will be a lot more skills to choose from than seven, you will only get seven skill slots to use and put your selected skills into.

The game itself? I've heard rumblings of late 2011, but I'll believe that when I see it.

The possible console version? No clue. Probably a year or two (at least) after PC launch.
