I would assume that DIII will come out slightly before SCII exp1. My reasoning is that SCII will release somewhere in the fall this year, probably October to cash in the best before Christmas. Because the game will be completely finished at that point, EXP1 work will commence. Now all the modeling work is done, and the only thing I would expect to see in SCII exp1 is the new race's campaign, a few new units, and a few new maps. Surely that wouldn't require more than a year of work by the SCII team. So most likely they will be done with the next game around the same time 2011, for the next Christmas season.
I expect DIII to be released on June 29th 2011, which would put it a couple of months before SCII exp1. My reasoning for this is that DIII looks to be getting pretty polished at this point, compared to what we saw a year ago (remember the gargoyle?). 10 more months of production and 6 months for a beta seems reasonable to me. Plus the Diablo team wouldn't want to be breaking the June 29th tradition now would they?

P.S. Wasn't the expansion for Diablo 2 released 1 year after release?

Yessir! Exactly 1 year, June 29th.
June 29th tradiition? fill me in
I noticed diablo 3 was announced june 28.. how come not 29.
It is hard to say if the expansion to SC2 will be out before or after. I am not a fan of Starcraft, but what I have heard is that since the Single Player campaigns are too large to include them all at once so they decided to split them into 3 parts. That is telling me that a portion of the expansions have been worked on, but are just now focusing on the main release. I do not think it will take too much time for the expansions to be released. I am thinking it could be as little as 6 months for the first expansion.

Some fallout 4 mod makers have had their mods stolen and uploaded and downloaded on Bethesda's site for the Xbox One.

They have stated they want all the expansions to be 1 year apart.
Does anyone know if they mentioned this anywhere?(I found a site that says this, but who knows)

2010 - sc2:wol and wow cataclysm
2011 - D3
2012 - sc2:hos
I just can't see a "expasion" coming out one year after the release. People will not even fully explore SC2...
I know what you mean, but... Sc2 is a triology... Thats why i think the expansions will come relatively fast. 1 each year.
Well remember the expansions are only the single players of SC2.. I can see how you can beat the single player for 1 campaign in a year. lol

They wouldn't hide DIII at Blizzcon until the second day. Come on! That would just be mean.
Man this guy is all sorts of full of piss and vinegar.
Reminds me of Sherdog ha.

I wouldn't be surprized, but they probably figured they would get enough sales with Korea even if they didn't. lol
They will probably come with huge balance changes and more maps, but we will see.
