When Blizzard announced that its northern
offices were being relocated to California, they announced that they were working on a new, unannounced
project that was believed to be Diablo III. Well,
Blizzard's PR people have quickly squashed that rumor, stating that the new project is neither a sequel to Starcraft or
Diablo. So now the new speculation is that this project is an expansion to World of Warcraft, but it could be a
new franchise all its own. We don't have to wait long to find out, though: the new game will be announced at
their inaugural BlizzCon in October.

It is going to be the first expansion for WOW. In addition they are planning on having playable areas from the WOW expansion at BlizzCon, but that is undetermined at this time as they are still working on it. But figure that by October they will have something for the attendees to play from the WOW Expansion Pack.

Bring back Rock N' Roll Racing, Lost Vikings, or Blackthorne already. I am tired of these dorky RPG and strategy games.

"...the new project is neither a sequel to Starcraft or Diablo."
Of course not. It's a prequel.
Just doing my part to help out with the rumormongering.

No, eugaet, you have it all wrong. It's a sequel to Diablo 2.

Better yet - the project that is "neither a sequel to Starcraft or Diablo" - is going to be StarAblo, or DiaCraft, a sequel to Starcraft AND Diablo.

What does it matter it will probably take another 5 years before we see it like the Starcraft Ghost.

"Is this the expansion that makes WoW fun?"
- You are a retard
And just wondering. Any news on OLD IF and The Airport outside of IF? (for those who have played the game). I risked a banning and went to both of them. Pretty cool stuff. Just wondering if anyone knows when or if they will be unlocking those places to the general public. Maybe, even, w/ the expansion?

Here's something I've been wondering about for quite some time now. Does anyone with a REAL LIFE honestly give a shit about world of warcraft?

I don't care about WoW. All MMORPG's are boring. All I want is Starcraft with updated graphics. :(

I give a 100% shit about WoW. It's a great game. More then I can say about EQ2 or FFXI.

Well, seriously this has to be the WoW expansion. It lies there in the open, only to be grasped by the open-minded.. yet regarding Starcraft sequel, the most important thing is the great Story and UNiverse that they made in this game. Never will there be a game like that ever again.
