I will probably skip Diablo now and use the saved money for Red Orchestra. I'm soooo disappointed in Blizzard's decisions that I'd rather buy Playboy Mansion than Diablo.

I'll pass on the $35 deal as both "MW3" and "BF3" will be taking up my time in Oct/ Nov. Always been interesrted in giving "RA: Ostfront" a go, but not badly enough to pre-order the follw-up.

Well i'll probably go with BF3 first as well, mostly because my buddies will (most likely) go with BF3.
