Blizzard jobs may be possible evidence

[Mitsurugi]

There are a number of new job openings at Blizzard. Many of them are marked Top Secret for a new Next-Gen MMO. Check the description out:

It clearly specifies "Blizzard Entertainment, the developer of Diablo and Diablo II"; not Blizzard the makers of Star/Warcraft. Maybe they're hiring staff for the new Diablo?

Good find, but this is veeerrrryyyyy old.


On a side not, one of the job openings farther down the page is for a physics/collision programmer. This means either the new MMO or D3 will have physics!!
