Ok, i'll post a blog article i found explaining why blizzard are working on starcraft 2.
here it goes:
Blizzard is most certanly working on new game now, it's been recruting staff for so long time, many of which positions
were directly for strategy game developers/staff from which number of rumors appeared!
Blizzard recently started posting quite a lot positions for WOW related development and stuff, which also indicates
many of the old Blizzard developers are transfering to a new game.
The rumors about Blizzard making/releasing 3 new games is not-true from obvious reasons.
- Blizzard only makes one game at a time in order to make it as better as possible.
- Theres no proof or even some statement which can be taken as blizzard pointing that it's developing 3 games.
So basicly WOW is already more than 2 years old, they recently released WOW expansion and the obvious conclusion
is that they are hard at work on a new-old game! The question is what game?
-Is it Diablo 3, Warcraft 4, Starcraft 2 or mauby some totally new game!
If you check all their release dates and ways of releasing games you'll see that Starcraft 2 should be their next game.
Blizzard first game was Warcraft then Warcraft 2, warcraft 2 expansion, Diablo, Starcraft, Starcraft expansion, Diablo 2,
Diablo 2 expansion, Warcraft 3, Warcraft 3 expansion, WOW, WOW expansion.
From this we se that all of the other game universes are covered except Starcraft which only has 2 titles are are last
from the last visited game universe! Furthermore 2008 year will mark 10 years of the first Starcraft game.
So if you ask me Starcraft 2 is the next game we'll see from Blizzard, which i think it's been in the development now for
around 4-5 months.
Well than when can we expect Blizzard to officially announce the Starcraft 2? - I'd say anytime is possible but the most
logical date would be Q3 2006.
