Blizzard Entertainment has recently posted a job listing for their Diablo III team, in search for a senior software engineer. However, here’s the interesting part, whoever gets the job will be tasked with “overseeing Playstation 3 (PS3) architecture design as well as other PS3-specific game code development to maximize platform performance.”
Tucking one of hardcore gaming’s biggest icons under its belt would be a potentially huge boost for Sony, but don’t get too excited. As a few outlets have already suggested, this could well be a research-driven exercise for Blizzard as they continually flirt with the idea of console development.

If this was released on ps3, and Blizzard supported it as well as Valve did the Portal 2 release, I would definitely be interested.
My brother was a Diablo 2 addict at one point.

Blizzard won’t allow their game play without mandatory battle.net connection.
And Sony is the only platform holder who would allow Battle.net on their console, like they did with Steam.
