I stand corrected.

So either they're too early in the development process to scrape together something for E3, don't care about using E3 as a hype tool, are waiting for StarCraft: Ghost to be released, or...they're just not working on it yet.

It just doesn't make any logical sense to me. I mean Blizzard didn't wait too long after they had released StarCraft to work on WarCraft III (about a year). What's the hold up? Right now they're only applying themselves to World of WarCraft, and I know that Blizzard always works on at least two projects at the same time. StarCraft: Ghost doesn't really count because all they tagged on to that was storyline and gameplay tweaking, all of the hard coding was done by the other developer.

So does Blizzard have something new in store for us all? The latest rumors is that we've seen the last of Diablo II, but not the last of that 'type' of game.

It takes a while to make something for E3. You have to be atleast half way in the development process to see how the game is going to be and what to show in E3.

I'm sure this has been posted, but why would they do it at E3 when they already have two games....a starcraft game even...already there? And doesn't blizzard announce pc games at ECTS anyway?
