I am finding it hard to believe they can actually beat the hype and their old game with SC2...

It's certainly a monumental task, but I have faith in Blizzard.

Well, having said that, they have done pretty darn well with events and stuff so far. I think we'll be quite impressed.

Well, Starcraft got the "Best Selling Strategy Game for a PC" which is a slightly different category to WoW. :)

Really an awesome feat for a PC game. That's what good Support and getting your product just right get you.

I'm a long-time fan, ever since the original Warcraft(CD version... it was a big deal at the time...don't judge me). I'll be the first to congratulate them. But, where are they going to keep all their money when Starcraft 2 is released? Are they going to have to start renting out stadiums, and what about when Diablo 3 comes out? With the non-stop cash machine that is WOW, which is already pumping them flush with monies... it's just amazing to think about how much money they have and will continue to make. I'm truly in awe.

10 - Warcraft 3 is better
I know I will get disagrees, but I think Warcraft 3 is better than Starcraft. Warcraft 3 is fun as hell!
