My predictions:

7. Blizzard announces that they will start doing games for consoles.

Why on earth would they do that? Because they're sick of making tons and tons of money?

 

Cashing money now doesn't mean that they will do it forever. Their games has been stellar but with console their sales would skyrocket even more. Gping mutliplattform would be logical and now that both PS3 and 360 are reaching over 20 million and 30 million the base is big enough.

 

So you think Blizzard is going to go to console and release the most popular third party game ever released? Because that's what it would take to match sales of their recent games on the PC. And on the PC, most of their revenue comes from a $15/mo monthly subscription now which cannot be done on consoles.

And the Wii is currently the only console that could do RTS games properly -- Blizzard's strongest franchise in terms of quality-over-the-competition.

They might release a game or two on console, as they have been planning for years and years, but PC offers superior control, superior power, and superior online. And for blizzard, superior revenues. Downgrading from the PC to a PS3 would be a huge hit.

8. More PS3 exclusives.

Here's a correction for you:

8. More PS3 exclusives go to the 360 and multiplat.
