What happens on a kernel panic? I've never had one until the other night... I think.
I was surfing the web and I had Diablo2 on and the whole screen went a shade darker and I was told to hold down the power buton because my computer needed to be restarted.
Was that a kernel panic? If so where can I check what happened? If not... what was it?

Yes, that was a kernel panic.
You might have a panic log at /Library/Logs/panic.log but that will probably of little help to find out what happened.

Nasrudin sat on a river bank when someone shouted to him from the opposite side: "Hey! how do I get across?" "You are across!" Nasrudin shouted back.

Hum, not much you can do.
You may fill a bug report and send it to Apple using the Mac OS X Feedback page.

In that case it may have some sence to copy-paste the panic log in the message.

Actually, if there is a panic log, it can sometimes point to the cause. Post it here and folks will see if it points to anything.

I searched for panic.log and nothing came up.
Any ideas?

Open System Profiler (or Apple System Profiler?) from Applications/Utilities, and click the Logs tab, there should be a Kernel Panic log there somewhere.
