Thanks! And yeah, I think D3 is supposed to be released before SC2 expansion. If someone could find a Blizz quote it would be great.
Thanks for moving the thread, I was gonna ask a mod to do that. I first thought the date was D3's release date, so I posted in the D3 forum, but the 02 made no sense. Rethinking it I got to this conclusion.
So, after a while of playing SC2 I noticed something. When you open the game, the loading screen has James' face in what looks like Tychus suit. Once it's loaded, we can see Tychus' face. Interestingly enough, both have some blueish numbers and text on their right cheek. The text is pretty illegible, but the numbers are clearly visible. They are:
02:16:06:11
This number appears in both of the characters' faces. Let's write them differently.
02 = 16/06/11
Think about it, the second installment of the game (02) will be released in 16th June of next year (16:06:11). They did say that they wanted to release the exansion a year after the main game, and this is pretty close, almost 11 months. Plus, it can't be a coincidence, since it's in both of their faces, so it's a planned thing, not some random numbers. If they were random, they woudn't have used the same numbers for both. Besides, maybe players don't notice because they don't really look at it, but whoever it was at Blizzard that though of this number must have realized it looks a damn lot like a release date.
What do you think about this? Personally, I'd love if it was released in less than a year. And also important, if this turns out to be true, what does it mean for D3? I recall reading that they wanted to release D3 before SC2 expansion, but I'm not sure.
EDIT: I re-checked and the numbers on James' face are not those ones. My bad. They are on Tychus' face though, and much clearer than those on James' face.
EDIT 2: I'm talking about the offine menu screen. Here or here (less clear)
