Working in a high/secondary school isn’t always the most pleasent of experiences thats for sure but sometimes, just sometimes there is a time when you get back at those kids!  And today is that day!!

Most of the school went on some kind of end-of-school day trip, but a few always are left behind for whatever reason.  For those we set up a computer room to run a lan game of Quake 2 (old I know but it runs on the schools old pc’s) which so far has proven quite popular even with the girls who… are quite girly if you get what I’m yapping on about.

So after setting up the room I joined the game! muahahahaha “TheTechGuy” was my name and a killing spree it was! Fragging left and right students and teachers alike!  Of course I won the game which was set to 50 kills by a lead of nearly 30 but I can only describe my mad killing spree as a bumble bee with a shotgun (or rail gun in my case).

My co-worker who were in the room as I played from the office overheard “Oh no! TheTechGuy has joined again we’re all going to die!!!” Oh how that made my day :D

Ahh such sweet revenge!

While looking through a dvd sale over at Play.com, I thought I would just check to see if they had anything on Diablo 3 yet.  Much to my surprise, there it was!

It’s already up for pre-order with a Due for release on 27/03/2009 spouting off a price of £24.99 which isn’t too bad to be honest (around $50 US for those state side).

But don’t take that date as set in stone as we all know how dates always get pushed back.  Although it would be nice to see D3 around the 2nd quarter of ‘09.  This would make sense as Blizzard would want to push WotLK, which play also advertises as being released on 26/09/2008.  This would give a good few months and christmas to get WotLK out there before getting D3 on the market.  Either way you look at it, the end of this year and the start of the next should be a interesting time for gamers.
