Apparently Blizzard told Playboy that D3 is out at the end of the year?! I call shenanigans!

I've met Jo, she's a very nice girl (and to my surprise a capable gamer), but I think she got her info from a retailer.

No official release date has been announced for Cataclysm or Diablo III. :)

Some retailers (which I've always assumed have to have a release date in their sales systems to take pre-orders) set unknown release dates to the end of the year or a date that ends a business quarter. March 31, June 30, etc.
