Amazon Declares Diablo Iii Its Most Preordered Pc Game Ever

The PC titles it surpassed to earn that lofty achievement, of course, are World of Warcraft: Cataclysm and StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty. It’s probably a safe bet that the news has Blizzard’s various development teams poking fun at each other over in Irvine, but then again, it’s not like they’re any strangers to setting PC sales records, either. It would be interesting to know hard, concrete numbers for this sort of thing, or how D3 preorders compare to that of the record-setting Modern Warfare 3 and Black Ops II. Of course, the Call of Duty series is available on three platforms, which might skew the results a bit. And now we understand why the game’s launch might be a little sloppy. Holy hell guys, Diablo III is almost here. I need to start warming up my mouse-clicking finger.
