At least it appears they're reconsidering the LAN bit.

Are they? Where did they say that?

Let's see where they take it from there, I'd still prefer both BNet and full LAN capability separate though.

Yeah and it still requires internet to play others though. That's a big no-no.

Starcraft and Diablo are huge LAN games, I can't remember being at a LAN where none of them were played almost constantly by someone.
No direct LAN support is silly at best and could cost them a few customers at worst.

It was inevitable that SCII would be moved to 2010 for the most part. I'm just disappointed because that means they'll delay Diablo III to 2011.

You never know. A spring release for SC2 and a winter one for D3 and Blizzard will have enough money to even separate from Activisoin witht he money they'd make.

I highly doubt they're going to release their two major releases in the same year.  It would be like them releasing WoW and Diablo in the same year.  Its just not good business sense.  Remember, many of the same fans who want to play SCII also are going to play Diablo III.  And if you release Diablo III 6 months after SCII.....



Six upcoming games you should look into:
