Diablo III demo leaked? Updated
Posted: 03.07.2008 08:58 by Jamie Davey Comments: 13

Pat from Videogaming247 is reporting that a unknown page is offering download information for a leaked Diablo III demo. The file is reported to have been leaked by an internal beta tester.

Update: Four Youtube trailers have appeared, a chap that claims to have cancer is sharing a lot of information about the game. We aren't sure if he's actually played this leaked beta or not. This could all be fake, but stay tuned.

Trailer 1, Trailer 2, Trailer 3, Trailer 4.

Update 2: The download of the leaked beta is reported to be just a HD trailer of Diablo III. So we can label this as fake, there isn't any beta test of Diablo III released.

Just checked on videogaming and it saysit is fake.

They wrote "This appears to be bullshit. Apparently it’s the HD version of the gameplay movie from the Invitational, not a demo."

No demo yet guys :)

Yes, probably fake as well. It all seems to be fake, which is good.

Nothing is leaked from Blizzard as their in-house security is too tight. Still, we all watched it, didn't we.

I watched 1 min of the first youtube clip and then i closed it down.

We all are going to have a look since we are all expecting this game now :D
Some are watching a little while some watch it all.

Someone tried to be smart by saying he leaked the demo. The demo itself couldn't be complete, made in a regular Setup.exe file, since the game only reached its first beta versions, and cannot be packed! It is probably located in some sort of editors, specially created for the new Diablo engine. There is simply NO way a leak like this happened! Stay serious guys, and stick to the official stuff!:|

And 568MB?? Come on, give me a break! Did you see the complex textures, and advanced shaders, the game engine itself must be around 800 to 1000MB!

What i meant was he tells it all in those clips about how he did it and so on.

So there is no one who got the game.

I think we hvae to wait 1-2 year untill it comes, maybe even more time.
Lets hope for the best :)
