WOW held up StarCraft II for a year

Blizzard's vice president of game design, Rob Pardo, has revealed to Eurogamer that early delays to StarCraft II's development were a result of staff being called off to work on World of Warcraft for a year.

Work on StarCraft II started in 2003, but Blizzard didn't even announce the game until 2007 - and it's not due to launch until later this year. However, despite the WOW-relayed delays, Blizzard has had a playable version of the game since late 2005.

WoW is the most profitable cash-machine game than any other games that Blizzard developed.

Those SC devs are probably the jerks who thought up Battlegrounds, thus ruining WoW PvP forever.

Was one of my most anticipated games 7 years ago. Please revive and bring to PS360 the concept of Metal Gear Solid Starcraft style was intriguing.
