And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
This should be a confirmation that two sockets will be the max amount on chests (I don't really see there being enough room for it). For the guy who wondered :3

Convinced my other half to try the game after showing her some videos, she said she'd play it with me for sure but we'll see for how long. Anyhow, gives me an excuse to keep both CE's preordered. Like a sick, sick consumer should.

Yep, so far, 2 sockets max, 3 on a certain set item

I love seeing these types of posts every few pages.
I'm going to be playing mostly with my roommate and my other RL friends, but I promise to play with some gaffers at some point.
Same. Maybe I'll make a GAF character...
So I found exactly what can be Socketed, it's on the official Game Guide site, but in case anyone was wondering:
Head
Body Armor/Torso
Waist/Belt
Pants??? I remember there being sockets in pants, but the guide says no, maybe the Jeweler can't socket it, but I swear I saw 1 on the auction house in beta
Amulets
Shields

I'm going to be rolling...in my bed, waiting for UPS.
After that, Demon Hunter. Probably a rapid fire/hatred regen build until Nightmare at least.

Latest update on the five people who decided to start camping outside the shop seven days before launch:
"The fans made it through another cold night, but this time with a visit from cops. The store owner felt that they deserved to see the CE. "
Teaser video of the craziness: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_DG-OvR3Ms
edited in their "rewards":
#1 in the line: You get the Diablo III CE for free
#2-3 in the line: You get the regular version for free
#1-10 in the line: You get a free D3 t-shirt
#1-15 in the line: You get a secret bonus PC game
#1-100 in the line: You get a free D3 poster
If you cosplay while standing in line, you get a $10 discount on the game.

She's going for pin-cushion chic, leave her alone.

Im pretty sure this game will explode the internet. I have friends that arent even gamers pre ordering this because of the nostalgia from D2.

Depending what item the socket is, does it affect the affix?

Welcome to Sweden, bro. Were you expecting them to look like D3 female barbarians :3
It's a genius strategy from the store-owners part though, they're basically advertising their store (it's a very low-budget, small retail shop).
looks like she ate a whole chocolate cake
I'm pretty sure they get destroyed, least I hope they do.
Google image "Swedish girls" that is what I expect them to all look like.
I actually find the eyebrows weirder than the piercings.
Yes, I "think" there are only 2 different affixes this time around, Weapon + Armor
Ruby in Weapon deals more damage
Ruby in Armor gives more life (I don't know if thats right but you get the idea)

People are getting their weekends on. Hype overload setting in. People dont even want to enjoy their weekends, they want them over already.

Yes. The affixes are already listed on the Diablo 3 item page.

:lol @ dat stereotype. Unfortunately this isn't the case anymore, I can't find good looking women here anymore

You can take out the gem for a fee.

Slight spoiler, but if you watched the trailer
it looked like the monk had a red gem on his chest (in game model) after he socketed the item, or am I missing something?

I rewound, and I think it was there before.

Wow, actually Blizzard themselves heard about the early line they made and gave the store hundreds of Diablo-merchandise. That's pretty awesome of Blizzard!
Finished some more auction house calculators today http://www.d3rmt.com/tools/
Looks like reselling items is gonna be hard (Buy low, sell high) since if you buy an item for $30 you need to sell it for $37 to make $1 profit. But if your trying to resell $30 of gold on the other hand.... you gotta sell it for $42 to make 35 cents in profit. GOD DAMN.
However reselling cheaper $5-10 items isn't as bad.

Thinking I may want a G500 now instead of a G700 (though I still may pick up a G700 eventually).
I'll probably wait until I can get it cheaper though - the price fluctuates and it's been as low as $50. Current lowest is $57 on Newegg. Surprisingly more expensive on Amazon.
