While the announcement of Diablo 3 this weekend is very exciting, StarCraft 2 is a game far more near and dear to my heart. A hail storm of news about StarCraft 2 was also delivered onto us this weekend during Blizzard’s World Wide Invitational.

A couple of key points are, the graphics are as upgraded as you can get for a top down RTS. The campaign as a whole is 1/3 complete, so I would imagine that means 2 more years till completion.

Diablo 3 definitely looks like it will be fun, but I have some reservations. Graphics are a lot better, the story looks to be a lot more involved and the Heroes sound interesting. But, only 5 hero classes? Didn’t the Diable 2 expansion have it up to 7 or 8, why less? I guess an expansion will add more at some point. The devs talk about making the spells and actions look awesome and while they do look awesome, the videos show the Heroes one shotting everything. Even the boss battle only took about 7 hits to kill the boss. And lastly, do I really want to grind another 20 some odd hours through another Diablo game?

Who am I kidding. Hell yeah I do!
