Teen arrested after calling Blizzard and threatening suicide

A 17 year old teen from Fairfield Township, Ohio was arrested Monday when police showed up at his house after a call with a Blizzard entertainment representative about World of Warcraft. The teen told the Blizzard rep “he was suicidal and that the game is the only thing he has to live for”. Apparently he wanted something and the Blizzard rep was not going to allow it (probably got banned). When the police showed up he explained that he did it “to try to get what he wanted for the game”.

Diablo III will not be the end of the Diablo universe

Blizzard LogoLead designer Jay Wilson had this to say:

We’re not saying this is the end of the ‘Diablo’ universe, but we are trying to bring this storyline to a close. It’s not just ‘Diablo III’ — we’ve got plans beyond.

Wilson also went on to say that characters would be returning from Diablo I, Diablo 2 and some of the books that focus on the universe.

Can’t say I blame them. Diablo is one of the reasons Blizzard is who they are today.
