E for All Expo is all the way in October, so we have absolutely no word yet. I would assume a BlizzCon would be held before the Expo so that they can announce the game there, and show it off at the Expo.
I've watched my dad (54) play Half-Life 2 and Day of Defeat - I couldn't stop shaking my head. I'll keep my reflexes fresh my entire life - especially for Diablo.
i will be playing games till the day i die, console and pc
Likewise. I'm going to be playing games the rest of my life, and I'm going to try to stick to Blizzard. They have proven to me they work hard and make quality games for EVERY franchise, and that really gains my respect. Sure, they are slow and frustrating at times, but they always make up for it later. I've been waiting for Diablo III for years, but I've remained patient for many years up to now.
Diablo II for me has now gotten old. I've seen it all, and done it all. I want something new from the Diablo franchise. I want more monsters, more items, more evil! I started boycotting Diablo II at the end of 2006 until the announcement of Diablo III.
Diablo III seems to have more rumors circulating about it around the public. Perhaps the fans of Diablo III are more enthusiastic. Diablo is a game that has vast replayability, but replayability gets old in 6 years. Every godly build has the same equipment, same skill builds, same everything - which gets boring.
StarCraft II is being hinted more strongly by actual employees at Blizzard, but nothing (if anything) has been leaked to spark major rumors. StarCraft, being very popular on Battle.net, it has tendencies to be less boring because there are new maps all the time, and every move you make is different than the last, depending on your opponent.
However, if BlizzCon were to be held tomorrow, I'd expect both games to be shown there. That would be the "MAJOR product announcement for 2007".
