Early this month we reported that Blizzard's hugely anticipated hack'n'slash Diablo III has a good chance to arrive some time in Q4 2011 - that's according to a leaked product slate from Blizzard. Mind you, the same leaked product slate pointed towards a mysterious project referred to as "Titan...

Hm, looks like we missed this one during the weekend. Sony Online Entertainment has confirmed that the next EverQuest game is in development.
