Rumor: Diablo 3 will arrive before StarCraft 2

[wisp]

We don't know who the staffers of BattleForums are friends with at Blizzard, but suffice to say we want to meet them. The site says a source at the company let it slip that Diablo 3 would actually arrive before the previously announced StarCraft 2, saying: "[Starcraft 2] is still being worked on, but only by a minuscule [sic] amount of people compared to what [Blizzard] put on the Diablo 3 team."

So, if true (and Blizzard is hardly going to confess), is this good news for you? Bad? Which Blizzard project has you popping in your Index Fingers of Steel VHS in anticipation?

I read on N4G that this rumour was squashed. Will look for the link later.

If that happens I will thank the gaming gods and pray to them nightly. Ok maybe not, but you get the gist :)

I felt Diablo3 might come out in end of 2009 to 2010. cos it will take time for developer to polish and kickass more class and gameplay.

So i'm looking forward WoLK in two month time...

Oh no...

DIABLO III For the podium finish, but SCII FTW.

IMO Either can be released 1st, I can't wait for both of them....but from a marketing view they won't be released close to each other so they can achieve max sales for both.

look, they will release WoLK in less than two month time. So SC2 or D3 might come out year later or so depend on boost of sale :)

personally i'm more of a diablo fan but it seems like there are so many good titles coming out that i'm sure i can find something to pass the time between releases
