Nah, something like that Blizzard wouldn't bother holding off to announce. They haven't done anything like that before, for WoW, and I doubt they will.
Well guys I think it is going to be D3... Reason being they completely dumped Ghost...Why would they jump to another Starcraft game right off the bat??? Wouldn't you be burnt out on working on that game if you did a bunch of work and then you decide to throw it out? I know Starcraft has a "Shit-ton" of fans...and I am 1 but......Diablo3 seems alot more likely at this point...You have alot of people leaving WoW even though they are still gaining customers I think they are loosing alot their senior players at a very high rate...Don't get me wrong WoW is a beautiful game but the expansion brought alot of different things like probably the biggest being 25 man raid instances and it cause a "Fuck-ton" of guilds to break up...So....Almost every hardcore player that plays WoW has played Diablo...So...This brings me to the big decision...hmmmm Starcraft~~9.5 Million or Diablo~~15 Million I think...Which fans would you rather comfort??? I know Starcraft is due for a new release but Diablo has wayyyy more fans and I would think that they need to comfort them very soon because WoW isn't doing it for most of us anymore...I think our best hint is "I am not writing for a dead game"....and usually when they release a book or a movie you have a game:) Soo lets hope its D3 baby!!!!
almost 10 years without another SC game compared to Diablo's 6. 2 SC games to Diablo's 3 (4 if you count Hellfire but thats not really a Blizzard game) compared to WC's what 7 or is it 8?, (WC, WCII, WCII EXP, WCIII, WCIII, EXP, WOW, WOW EXP, and that second EXP to WOW, something about fighting Athas in Northrend, makes 8)
they are working on the 1.15 patch for SC right?
would they patch an old game and release a new one? i think they might. actually that statement works for both SC and Diablo. 1.15 and SCII, 1.12 and DIII

-Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's First Law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth.
As I've said in so many words, most Diablo, Warcraft, and Starcraft fans are interchangeable in games. So I don't even think Blizzard needs to think about which games would be the most popular at the time, they only need to know that their games are popular, period.
What I've wondered is that surely by now they're so big, there would be a Blizzard North, East, South, West, all developing these different games. Or at least a North and South making Starcraft and Diablo.

I disagree.... I believe if DIABLO3 is release the fan base will have to be that of 17 year olds and up. Reason being DIABLO is a M rated game.
Point and case. Also notice blizzard isnt answing any of these SC2 questions. They are very good at throwing people off. Maybe they are letting it go around ebcause then when they announce in korea BOOM d3 NO ONE sees it coming.
Yeah but if you think about it they patched Diablo like a year ago and I know they need to keep all the Starcraft fans happy but Diablo has more fans...and if you completely dumped a game there was some type of a reason. I don't think it was for WoW either. I think that they dumped it because it was a really stupid idea to change Starcraft to a third person shooter but if it were me my next option would definately be Diablo in recovery mode from a waste of time. I don't think their hearts were into it and to jump back to it probably wouldn't be the next option. On the flipside Diablo will take alot of the WoW customers. Where Starcraft may not take as many. So the biggest thing is to not crush WoW and that is the downside for us Diablo fans because I think it will destroy WoW.. and the third option is to fuck us pc gamers by not giving us either and them bringing WoW to console which would fuck all the fans of Diablo and Starcraft. That would really piss me off and make me hate blizzard..I mean cmon..Most of us have been very faithful to their success and for them to back forty us would be about as bad as them making us run around on a stupid mount to travel in WoW just so they make extra money for the time we all spend traveling in that shithole. They need to give the people that have been faithful what they want and right now D3 is wanted more than anything.

Actually, Ghost looked good. I wanted to play that game really badly too...Plus, it would give Blizzard a chance to enter new genres. And if they can do it as well as they've been doing, well then, more power to them.

Doubt it, highly. One, it would have to be a spectacular game, which has yet to be seen. In fact, the existence of the game has yet to be seen. And even then, there would have to be some compelling reason for gamers to have to make a decision, in order for WoW to lose consumers.
I would like to see a new starcraft 2, though. 10 years...and no sequel!

Mind you thats i would asume thats DIABLO3 has more rome to be MMORPG but STARCRAFT2 has more of a MMOFPS like planet side....
i think it will be d3 or a new franchise.. wherever they may send the word out (this time in korea), it may be that they are pulling players to their other franchises (i.e. diablo universe) given the boo boo of the sc patch so as to extend their time in fixing that. :confused: :cool:

My man!!! We got to start a rally...
Another thing. I like Wow and all I played the trial and some of the real deal, and it is awesome...
But Wow compared to Diablo is like Peter Pan compared to the Grim Reeper, I couldnt spring for it.
aaahhhhh diablo 1... i've never seen any other game so evil and dark, and i have to say that alot of that evil feeling was because of the game soundtrack, wich for me is the best soundtrack ever in a game.
give me D3 with all the glory of D1 and i will be the happyest creature alive.
I know what they said. I wouldn't respond to something I have no idea about. But Doppel said it best. They said it would be announced later, basically. That later date being 20 days from now. Logically, a Diablo 3 game would seem unlikely, as that would mean that they have released (at least) 2 game sequels for every other game, leaving Starcraft completely neglected.
Muttonchopstradamus says that they will announce an entirely new franchise, or they will announce Starcraft 2.
Are you sure they werent saying "when we announce Diablo 3 please don't kill me"

sc2 has the most chance
Because they have neglected Starcraft the most, by far, and it still has a loyal fanbase.
they are working on the 1.15 patch for SC right?

True......

Let me ask you this..
Do you think they chose to unvail it in korea?
Or they chose korea to unvail it?
so you say... " I do expect a Starcraft game though, even though i dont like it. Even simply cause its gonna be in Korea is reason enough",
that would mean you see it as they chose korea to unvail it?
this is an 3rd annual world wide event. This has been planned for months and next years is probubly planned already as well, or will be soon.
you need to look at it like this They Chose to unvail it in korea?
what ever it is
