In the final part of our exclusive interview about Diablo 3, Lead Technical Artist Julian Love has pointed out that Blizzard have put no active work into porting the apocalyptic RPG, at least for the time being. In response to the many rumours floating around the internet Mr Love had this to say:

"We've identified that this game Diablo 3, of all the games we have, would be easiest to port. But that said we don't have any plans, at this time, to do that."

The denial isn't an outright refusal and the more we read it, the more it seems like a PS3 or 360 version is an increasing possibility.

Yippee ki-yay.
"What we are really trying to do is focus on getting the game out on the PC, that's the platform we are developing on. We just want to get it done and look at that situation later." Explained Mr Love who's probably getting tired of all this console talk.

Even if Blizzard have considered a console version, it seems as though the team isn't currently working on it, and the "no plans" comment certainly seems to push the idea of a console Diablo even further back than we'd all thought.

We'll have the complete transcript for you tomorrow in this month's edition of PCGZine. You'll come for Diablo, but stay for the rest of our entertaining editorial.
