Will Giant Bomb soon/ever track our Diablo achievements? It seems like a logical step beyond including WoW, though somehow unfairly seems more/too specific compared to an MMORPG.
I doubt that will happen, since the Starcraft 2 achievements isn't being tracked here on Giant Bomb. I figure they would have added that, if they were going to add Diablo 3.
How does Giant Bomb get the World of Warcraft achievement information?
EDIT: I just looked, it probably tracks through Armory, since it asks for character name and realm. So I think that means a no for Diablo 3 achievements, if Blizzard changed Battle.NET so Giant Bomb could track the achievements through a Battle.NET "name" all the games could be added...
Pretty sure Blizz put out an API for the WoW achievements at some point. Without them putting out the same thing for SC2 and Diablo III, Giant Bomb has no reliable way of pulling down that info.
@MordeaniisChaos: I just took a look, it looks they have profiles, but as far as I understand you can only see your own characters.
Besides Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2 doesn't keep the achievements at a character level but at the account level, so an Armory would be useless for getting the achievement information...
