Starcraft 2 on the other hand.... can't wait. I'm still a bit peeved that they're releasing three games and that each one only features one campaign (so you have to buy all three to play all three races in single player) time will tell on this one. If SC2 comes out and each part of the trilogy really does have the depth of a full game (as Blizzard claims it will) I will happily snap them up. If it looks like a ploy to get people to pay triple the price for one game (which with Blizzard certainly seems like a plausible business model), well, then I'll just wait until 2020 when the Starcraft 2 Battle Chest is on sale for $10.

If Diablo 3 operates like Diablo 2, then the gameplay is nothing like WoW. Obviously they are operate similar because they are both MMORPG. WoW is more like a "real world" RPG simulation. Diablo is more arcadey style gameplay. Much more action based game, but it lacks the overwhelming large virtual world WoW creates.
And true it is pretty gay that Blizzard is releasing three seperate SC2 games. They force you to pay for three seperate games because they know people will buy it anyways. Consumers hate it, but I don't blame Blizzard, they always make great quality games and the hype for SC2 and Diablo 3 is huge. Any company would take advtange over this.
