Word over at 1up.com is the fact Blizzard will be playing something called the "Medusa Demo". This could be Starcraft or Diablo related of course. Kerrigan is a lot like the Greek character Medusa. In Diablo though, there is an item called Medusa's Gaze.
i looked up medusa in wikipedia and found these quotes:
Some classical references multiply her[1] into three Gorgon sisters: Medusa, Stheno, and Euryale, monsters with goggling eyes, sharp protruding fangs and lolling tongues, brass hands, and hair of living, venomous snakes
in the translation of Jane Ellen Harrison, who notes "the Gorgon was made out of the terror, not the terror out of the Gorgon (Harrison 1922: 187, note 3).
the first one can apply to SC and Diablo, since kerrigan can have others of her type running around, and diablo because andariel can be a sister of medusa.
however the second quote is interesting. maybe Diablo has a daughter with ol' miss lilith. remember, she drops his horn.
other than that, i didnt find too much a connection with medusa and SC or diablo. but it is curious ^^'
idk, it might be another way to throw us off. you know how they like to play mind tricks on us. but i do think that SC will come out. im just hoping for D3 though ><.
i really dont know what is the trouble on diablo series with blizzard. What blizzards think bout a third game. They have never said anything bout that, all we got are rumors ..
Diablo series, in my opinion, its one of the greatest series thar blizzard ever worked on, and there are so many player that still play this game.. so why cannot make a third? whats the big deal? if this time diablo 3 wont be annunced, i really think that they never will.. or if they will, maybe in 2020, or later..
the Diablo series has infinite replayability. How can anyone sneeze at that? Bring on D3 dammit !!!!
Hey, I'm thinking about it now... blizz just announced 2 days ago sc patch v1.15...
thats another shit that makes us think its d3? or is it just a patch to prepare players to sc2???(lol, funny idea heh?:D )

well not long at all now i cant wait i dont know wether to stay up or go to sleep and set my alarm
lol Yeah I'm facing the same dilemma. I'm not a major fan of SC, but Diablo ZOMG I've dedicated half my life to that game. I think when I die one day I'll provide the save games of my characters on a flashdisk to my son, in my will
*COUNT DOWN* Announcements are taking place.

but one thing its fact. Its a SHAME how blizzard concern bout Diablo fans.
if i own blizzard, i'll get 100 new employers (and they do afford it) ans say: WORK ON IT! i still cannot understand the big trouble.
And If the Rumor is true, It would be only be a code name for the demo/game engine.
Im not making a big deal out of this. The official announcement is jsut hours away.
