There is no Starcraft 2 in development atm, the only Starcraft game thats in development right now is Starcraft Ghost which is a tactical console shooter not unlike Metal Gear Solid.

that would be a real shallow thing to do on blizzards part, to make the starcraft ghosts game for ps2, GC, and Xbox and not for the PC. When orginally it was starcraft that was released on the PC. which leads me to beleive that blizzard is making a seperate game aka starcraft 2 for the PC, only it hasnt been announced yet.

That sounds more realistic. Blizzard is a very smart company. Waiting for WC3 to be released felt like eons. But when the game finally came out, it was just right. If they were to release a separate Star Craft at the same time as Ghost, it would sell big. Personally, I can't wait for a sequel to Diablo. I just can't get enough of that game. I probably beat both Diablo and Diablo 2 a bajillion times already.:D

Oh heck yeah man, Diablo III or something to that extent. I think Blizzard should go for Starcraft 2 cause people would pretty much kill to get a copy of that game. Then get Diablo III out...
They would be richer than Billy Gates

after WOW, the likely game is Diablo3 rather than starcraft2. Reason is because they just came out with warcraft3. They have yet to release the expansion for it. If they release 2 rts games in a row, they will be kicking themselves for the loss of money. Some people take a year to buy a new game.

I dont know about Diablo 3, but there will definitely be an expansion for Warcraft 3 in late 2003 or mid 2004

patience is essential in maximizing your next Blizzard fix, they know their addicts well and will release something just before they go into withdrawl.
Edit:
WoW is going to be no small feat for Blizzard to acheive and they prolly have a sizable majority of their people working on it. Blizzard has to date developed a reputation as producing big hits when they drop (very similar to id). And with the fanatic like sucess of wc3 I will place money that they are not about to drop the ball.
While Blizzard is investing effort in Ghost, I am sure that since it is not exclusivly their effort, there position there is mostly just for model accuracy and to make sure that the real developer isnt really creating some willy nilly store line that Blizzard doesnt agree with.

If you beat Warcraft 3 on the hard setting, you can get this little bonus thing that let's you see a bunch of stuff of them screwing around. I'm not sure if it's a preview of starcraft 2 or just the blizzard guys having fun and modding the warcraft 3 engine. But you can see a bunch of terran marines kill a bunch of zergs, then a bunch of orcs in space suits shoot up the marines. It's kinda neat to watch but I dunno what it is exactly.

first off the diablo series is done by Blizzard North, not Blizzard, which is a totally different operation. So they could develop a diablo game while doing a sc or wc series game... but no more diablo games have been announced. Second, Blizzard got started programming console games... so them making a game for the xbox/ps2/gc or what ever isn't all that out of line... besides that kind of game is the kind of game that sells much better on a console... that's why games like metal gear solid don't sell any copies on a pc, and why games like SC don't sell on a console... it's just two different enviroments. I think Blizzard is making a smart move expanding their basis.

Frogmire, if you make Custom maps on WC3 then you have the option of putting in marines, zergling and hydras. They have already been put in many custom maps. I do not have the game myself so i havn't seen the total selection of unites, but i believe there is also a firebat type which is called something like "orc in space". Not sure if there's any tos characters in the game...would make sense if there was a zlot and a goon cuz then they'd have first 2 units of the 3 races.

Cool, I never knew that. I don't have the game anymore, I didn't like it too much. Heh, thanks for the info though.

I think the screeshots from WOW are amazing but since it's a MMORPG which on average takes probably twice as long to make and being Blizzard which takes 2-3 times longer then any other game company we'll be lucky if WOW is out this decade. I know, Blizzard makes solid products, maybe so but making a solid product isn't going to speed the release up any, I'd honestly be suprised if they released it before 2006.

well, blizzard isnt really working hard on starcraft ghost. they're just guiding nhilistic. also blizzard is a small company. they only have so many teams to work on projects. i think one of the biggest things they are working on now is World of warcraft.
also a lot of this was discussed in general games. my opinion is still the same. blizzard is a company and companies stay alive by going where the money's at. more people have consoles than pcs capable of running that game at the same level as a console. to make a pc port of the game would probably not yeild a very high result in sales as compared to consoles, so they figured it's not worth investing the time and resources. it's not so easy to just port over to pc. with consoles there's only 1 configuration per console. with pcs there's millions of combinations which allow tons of crazy bugs to pop up, which goes back to the whole resources/money aspect.

lol, i play niether at the moment. SC Ghost does look very interesting though. If they would just name it something else, because making it SC Ghost makes it sound like all you are gonna be is a ghost....but memory(if serves me right) you will be able to be marine as well... oh well. Looks awsome, and would be great PC Online game as well.
oh, and i believe SC2 rumors began when a group of people on a forum were talking about how cool it would be if they made it, and were thinking of ideas that could be put into gameplay. One i really remember is things in air dieing and crashing into ground(BC, muta, carrier) and damaging other units...
